looks like the factory paint, 'super clear red' to me Al :D

Doubt it :D

Car looks like a '95 model (S1.5), Red only came out in S2. Also the colour "pops" to much in the sun, very pearly. My pics make my paint look alittle darker on my car; i would love to put the two cars side-by-side.

Al, FYI:

AN0- Super Clear Red

AR1- Super Clear Red II

I'm pretty sure the first one is your factory color...what i'd call burgundy, but Nissan Japan see it as super clear red....Super clear red 2 is a much rarer factory color

Doubt it :D

Here's some pics...1 is obviously a series 2, the other is a 1.5

Those 2 were actually owned by the same guy...I did some research on the color when I was in the process of buying my car, because I almost bought 1 in the color, and didn't think it was a factory color at the time, having never seen it before...Until I spoke to this guy (member on here) and he told me its a pretty rare factory color :D

I've got more photos of it on other cars as well...surprising how much it changes in each of the photos too...looks really dark in some, but put it out in the sun and its quite a bit different, and a much nicer red when in the light

Shes a fresh import, and the paint job was done around a month ago or so. Originally it was a maroon/burgandy colour and dont we all hate that stinkin colour :D (no offense to burgandy sky's out there).

The colour is more like a Ferrari red, very different from factory red colour that came out in series 2. When the sunlight hits the car, she lights/brightens up like a flower, looks much better in flesh these pictures dont do any justice. I cant remember the paint code now, but will get it some time soon.

If i see anyone copying my colour, i will come knocking on your door step :D

Thanks buddy, appreciate it :(

You car looks very clean. I personaly love silver, as it is the easiest colour to keep looking clean. Some nice rims (dark spokes and polished dish) would really set the car and colour off. :)

It has now been just over 2yrs since my car was painted, and am still very happy with the colour choice and workmanship. Due to normal driving and SAU motokahnas it has a few chips, but that's to be expected.

if u wanna see my sky check out http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MyProfile=Y oh and ignore the stupid burnout in my vid... it was just for fun i lost my licence and i needed to just screw around for fun in my car since i missed driving it... and if u dont wanna check out my page u can see a pic of my car in my display pic :happy:

    • I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.
    • Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!
    • I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.
    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
