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.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
