Hi Guys,

My white R33 has a scrape on its body kit (my driveway sucks).

So I head off to repco to get some touch up paint only to be told that they dont stock paint for imported cars, and go to a panel beaters who can knock me up a batch.

Has anyone touched up their white R33s? if so what code paint did you use, or do you know what the nearest match is?

There doesnt seem to be any paint codes on my car, the plates in the engine bay are pretty cryptic and the door labels only have tyre information

is it in the same spot for the 34??

i think it is above the rb25 on the blue plate its says gv1 g the car is black.

does anyone know if that is correct because i wan to get my mags sprayed to match colour of car??

Yep, GV1 = Nissan pearl black

QM1 - white for mine was called Polar White by Repco when they mixed up a spray can full for me, it was a perfect match.

Just a tip, to touch up the paint get a small paintbrush, the type used by art students - 30 cents each from hardware house, so buy plenty!

Spray a small amount on the inside of the spray can's cap or any small container. Use the paintbrush to dip it in the paint and paint the scraped parts of your bodykit or chipped parts of body panels.

The results were amazing for me can't see any scrapes at all

Sorry its not Repco, it was actually at Autobarn in Blacktown. All these car parts places are the same to me lol

Really helpful staff, they even came out to the carpark and checked the plate to make sure its right.

Sorry for the mis-information

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
