whats wrong with silver? ive always thought it to be one of the best allround colours for cars. looks sex with white wheels too.

if i ever get a respray i would think long and hard about doing silver with a ice blue pearl, or the yellowey-green colour that alot of car makers are using now. (my mums falcon is this colour).

i agree that its good to be different and not copy, but dont want to be too flashy.

out of the three colours, the gtr purple would look good, but be a bastard to keep clean.

My last R32 was silver and I loved it.... However, I would like to move on to a colour that is a little more rare, and will make the car stand out when it comes time to sell..

I really love the puple so I thinki it is what I am going to go for.... Might also look into painting the car black, and putting a purple pearl into the paint...

Yeah i have more pics of that Exact car......

Plus the colour is actually a stock colour, limited BUT stock

Ok... Here is todays challenge!

Find out what colour code that paint is.. Would Nissan be able to tell me?

Can you please email me the pics of that car MADGT4?

From another thread:

The R33 GT-R Midnight Purple has been done quite a few times before, it still looks good, but I suppose something a bit more unique like II or III would be good.

 

Midnight Purple - #LP2

 

Midnight Purple II - #LV4

 

Midnight Purple III - don't know :(

 

Heres the PDF file: http://dupont.co.jp/dupont-refinish/color/.../nissan/lv4.pdf

 

I don't really know what I'm translating, but if you know paint code recipies then stuff like "binder", "balancer" and "flop controller" might make sense to you...

 

1st Part (Colour base):  

*from top to bottom on the extreme left*

Skyline

Black H.S.

Binder

 

2nd Part (Pearl Base):

*top to bottom on the extreme left*

Skyline

Chrome Illusion

Flop Controller

Jet Black

Violet

Violet Pearl

Binder  

Balancer

 

3rd Part (Colour Base):

*top to bottom on the extreme left*

Skyline

Black H.S.

Binder  

Balancer

 

4th Part (Pearl Base):

Skyline

Chrome Illusion

Flop Controller

Jet Black  

Violet

Violet Pearl

Binder  

Balancer

 

Note: At the top of the 3rd column across from the left on each of the parts it says "1L Combination Amount".

 

Now if you can make heads or tails of that that'd be great, because I'd hate to think that I've wasted my time.

ive painted my R32 kandy red its very nice but very hard to paint and very expensive compared to the colours you have posted.

midnight purple I, II or III would look nice as well as cherry black and they arent very common.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
