After hail damage, front bar scrapes, bonnet chips, mismatching panel colours from previous repairs, aging paint and now a rear ender...I may be respraying the R33.

Colour suggestions?

You have already decided on the colour :/

I'm also deterred by the cost of hiring a full time security guard

Don't be daft Adam, that's just added expense for R34 GTR owners.

Can be easily avoided by buying a R33 ;)

orange.

then get one of those spray jobs on the bonnet that look like it was a failed tattoo idea. good resale value on gumtree.

but serious, if wanting to be original, some subtle shade of orange

Why don't you paint your Pulsar Orange with white stripe in the middle?

2. I'm not even going to reply to the color suggestion request, since it won't be one of our suggestions anyway.

3. E85 E85 E85, how did I know that would summon the E85 god himself?

4. Alvin just got defected, but... I thought his car was compreetrie stock?

Cheers for the info re: gtst and gtr, hence my question as to how different they really are when fully set up

Which seems hard. For what its worth I wenT WOT from 0kmh with 375rwkw and had traction in first which was rather suprising. Howvever around a corner is considerably less likely.

Scotty would know how much of a stickler I am for the stealth look. If someone was just looking to buy a rb28 neo I'd sell them mine.

As for r33 colours, go get House of Kolor's Galaxy Grey. Someone did a drag r33 with this colour and it is fantastic. I asked about it for my r34 before the convo subject changed to 'prepare for write off'

Same colour. Unless you are doing bay, door jams etc, in which case MNP

IMHO darker colours suit the 33

Hey man that hurts :(

You can do that with a GTS-T though, to much the same degree...injectors are my only give away cause I cbf spraying them the standard colour.

Return flow IC is legal as long as you don't have a pod.

When I drove a GTR I wasn't impressed. Maybe it had been talked up or I don't hit the corners enough to justify having AWD, but having come from a well sorted GTS-T, I wouldn't pay the extra money.

I failed my full EPA because injectors were the wrong colour. Even though I passed the emission test.

I must say the colour choices you guys suggesting are bland as f**k..

gunmetal grey, bayside blue, mnp... Come on guys pick up a colour chart that isnt from the 90s nissan catalogue...there is 11ty billion more exciting colours to choose from...

a deep dark cola coloured red would look amazing...And the things you can do with silver to increase its impact 100 fold... Look at new cars for inspiration, mazda for one have heaps of cool new colours..

Think outside the box peoples..

that means that moorabbin guy was being a flamin mongrel to you.

i spotted his car at photoshoot the other night, all i could see was a piece of the front rim , i gone to Mick, is that Gregs car..lol....Its pretty messy...It just destined not to be on the road that thing.. You tried Greg, you tried really hard and you attempts all though futile are admirable..

    • Ok cool, because I do have some OEM BMW options for light(er) wheels. 17x8.5 M Sport wheels are 11kg and I could put 255's on them. Maybe that's an initial test.
    • So, in the effort of pulling apart airboxes and testing enclosures to see if this aids in MAP loss at WOT I noticed: 1) The ducts up the OEM intercooler holes from the front bar help IAT drastically, whether the pod is shielded from the engine bay by an airbox missing a lid, or an airbox WITH a lid. Plus you get more induction sound without the lid. Having half the airbox (with no lid) acting as a barrier to the headers seems to help. 2) For shits and giggles I checked the TB. This was full pedal travel. This is actually full travel of the TB. Photos aren't perfect, but there was definitely an amount of play in it and it wasn't against the stop. After much swearing and adjusting the pedal, I realised that the cable is actually too long for the skyline pedal travel to fully articulate it. Having the pedal adjusted so WOT was actually hard open on WOT resulted in an idle of 3500rpm. As an aside, this was also the TPS registering at 3.1%. I removed the above to give the pedal enough travel to actually fully open the TB. I now get a satisfying 'thonk' on full open and full closed which you can hear pumping the pedal as it hits the TB stops (with the bonnet open and intake back on). Luckily for me, the screw screws into a raised metal boss under this plastic piece that is now acting as the new throttle stop. I've gained about 20mm (ish) of pedal travel and I can move it maybe a mm or two post open-thonk before it's hard against the stop. After all of this I did a bit of road tuning because a 102MM throttle is sensitive. The difference between holding an 950rpm idle and instantly stalling is about 0.4% of TPS movement. Will that help? I suppose it can't hurt. I set 'closed' point back to where it was, I can definitely feel the extra pedal travel that is needed to actually open the TB fully. But this morning I dropped the car off at Paint Jail again, so who knows when this will re-eventuate out to see if it helps with the top of the dyno hitting a ceiling.
    • Take heart that everyone else seems to have found a way. The OEM S1 indicators do slot in pretty firmly. It may simply be a case of having them sit slightly looser and nobody actually ever noticed this when attempting to remove a indicator from a JSAI bar :p
    • If the original NA ECU has a separate TCU then you are going to need to reroute wires that used to run between the trans and the TCU to the appropriate (1 to 1 equivalent) pins on the ECU. Other than that, it should work. Look up posts by @Kinkstaah on the subject.
    • So the stagea was a series 2 neo det with tiptronic auto. (I have the transmission aswell) and has integrated tcu in the ecu. I'm hoping to use the entire stagea ecu, engine and auto harness.
