i have a silver r33 gtst series 2. i reckon its the best colour..closely followed by white... and black last.

as tlai909 basically said... the lighter colours show the series 2 awesome shape alot better. i also chose silver (a light colour) over something dark so that ppl wont reverse into it in carparks etc. my friend has a dark green hsv manta and ppl reverse into it all the time probably because they just cant see it.

hey tgriffin are u thinking of buying a series 2? if u r then u should try and get one with sideskirts and the extra chin on the front spoiler which makes it look TOTALLY SICK!

so if you only want a black or white series 2.........then DEFINATELY go the white.. it looks heaps better and theres less chance someones going to run into it.

it depends on the kit to some extent. I reckon ALL the skyline colours are awesome.

White does look very sharp, but on a std series 1 with the small front bar, doesnt really look the best in my opinion.

Black looks MEAN! with any kit, but yes, black gets dirty like nothing else....

Silver is a wicked colour on ANY car. It wears dust nicely, and looks great.

Wine red, when in good condition, has an awesome gloss to it.

Gun grey, like mine!, wears dust extremely well, is quite subtle on the road (this can be good if you dont want too much attention!) But also has a toughness about it.

Those are the most common colours? theres also a bluish color yeah?

I originally wanted white, but when you go looking to buy, its not the colour that really sways you, its the condition of the car and its price. You cant turn down a good buy just coz its not the colour you want, especially when ALL the colours look wicked!! :)

GR33DyMANGO, white series 2 are nice, but a clean black series 2 looks bloody awesome!! but if its for a daily driver, then white is the better choice. VERY easy to find also!!

hey SLY33 do u have a series 1 or 2?

sorry to sound all gay... but the series 2 doesnt come in wine red(only the series 1 comes in the darker red ie wine red). the series 2 red is more a red red which is alot brighter. and the series 1 comes in gun grey which is darker aswell to the series 2 grey/silver... which i reckon looks better :) again.. apologies for the gaety of this paragraph SLY33! :lol:

I just put a deposit on a silver Skyline to be imported for me!! (they still have to look for it). It was for my mate who also put his deposit down on a WHITE one today.

And yep, me and my mate are both getting Series IIs. The front chin looks awesome, and so do the side skirts. If I don't get them, I'll try and get it sorted (the importer/dealer said he'd swap it with his current stock if possible).

Expect to get my Skyline in late Dec.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
