Hey everyone, I really need some help as quick as possible.

I have a 1996 s2 r33 gts-t which was damaged from front side.

All damage has been repaired now inside the engine bay needs to be sprayed?

Is the engine bay the same colour code as outside of the car? Im having alot of difficulty finding out as i already went off to buy KL0 and i just dabbed by finger in then put it against a part of the engine bay with its normal colour and it looks way off?

I know the outside of the car is sprayed clear and inside not but it still doesnt add up?

I know there is two silvers and the r33 gts-t. There is the darker grey sort of colour and just the normal silver. I got the normal silver sorry i dont have pics of it at the moment.

Please if anyone can give me the colour code for the engine bay that would be great. Or lead me to the right direction?

not 100% sure

some cars have different colour engine bays from factory... which is mostly coloured Black...

otherwise, Most have the same colour of paint but without a clear-coat/finish.

which actually looks more dull and matte.

otherwise, you could take it to a panel shop and get them to sample the paint and match something close via computer....

      Rb26/30 build

      By lilley's gtr · Posted

      I've been building a 26/30 for a few years now. I've had the head built with all the good stuff. I had a 32 gtr but blew it up and yes its all going into a vl but im looking for some advice from some RB nuts on pros and cons on putting a 26 head on a 30 bottom end is it worth it Works are as follows Head -Extensive porting 1mm oversized supertech valves Supertech double springs Supertech valve guides Supertech titanium retainers Tomei solid lifters Tomei 270 x 10.25 cams Head drain Bottom end series 2 rb30 block Cp ceramic coated pistons Eagle rods Romac balancer Oil restrictions  O ringed blah blah spent a fortune And will get a girdle because the 30s arent used to handling that much rpm Nitto billet oil pump Hypertune plenum 6boost mani Refurbed astra pump thats the cover for it in the boot I did have a precision 6262 but sold it because drag car life. Currently building the ass end full 4 link floater rear end with a 2 speed  But the dilemma i have is my mate rekens I should just stick with the 30 head for reliability. Has any one had any issues with mounting the 26 head ie compression blowing gaskets etc. Just looking for some advice from people who have gone down this route. Here's some photos. Blew the oil pump in the gtr and decided to rip the motor out at the time and do a full build only to find it had been a repairable write off so went down this path.

      lol no cats running str pipes … might put the high flow back on but I suspect it might effect my ignition timing a bit.

      That looks a bit like yellowing to me. If the rear bar was looking like that from rich idle, I'd ask the question, do you have a catalytic converter fitted, and fully working?

      Oh yeah gets really bad down here. I’ll have to upgrade the heater and wind screen wipers as well for optimal performance.
