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

    • 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.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
