Hi everyone,

In 2 weeks I'll be putting my car in for a respray. The only issue is I can't decide what color to go with - Lexus ISF blue or Audi white (like the one found on the A5 or the RS6). Just wanted to get your opinions - oh and the car that is going to be resprayed is:

I'll be changing the front bumper back to the series 2 front bumper with a Viva garage BL type lip.

Thanks in advance for your feedback. :thumbsup:

Dont narrow yourself down to just two options man. Head into the paint shop thats doing the work or just your local paint supplier and ask to have a look at their colour cards. You'll spend hours just flicking through colour after colour wondering what she'll look like. Trust me, I get sucked into looking at them for a while at work every now & then!! Check out some of the euro colours, ie: BMW, Audi, Porsche, Lambo. They have some great colours available. Just my 2c anyway. Keep us posted on what you decide man

i voted other.

there are SO MANY different colours to choose from these days. not just custom colours, but manufacturers have HEAPS to choose from too.

go look through a BMW catalogue, or even jump on the USA nissan web site and have a look.

dont limit yourself to 2 random colours.

Thanks for the input everyone. I guess the reason I narrowed it down is because I'm already partial to these two colors. The sepang bronze is beautiful but I think it would only look good on a skyline that has more extensive mods.

The day of the respray is looming closer...decisions, decisions!

Completely forgot about this topic. At the end, after tossing and turning and looking at different color cards as suggested, I decided to go for the audi white. Looks simple and clean and it won't be a color that will go "out of fashion" so to speak. Here are some recent photos of it after the respray:

Checkout DNA paints you'll change your mind lol

Based in melborne

The blue sapphire candy is nice , intense blue

Diamond clear it

Would be stunning

White a good one is 88 rx 7 anniversary white

Rare colour its whiter then white when sprayed on white primer , its so white it picks up the blue tint in street lights at night like a candy Blue

My old rx was painted that way . Its hard to describe but on white primer its crazy white , the factory used grey and thats still whiter then qm1 white nissan , most likely repaint my r34 next year that colour its WOW for a non pearl white

Pearl white looks nice but is a pain to keep nice

Had a pearl white and candy blue toyota truck , forget touchups on pearls and candys its near impossible

Love the blue and s3 purple 34's but unless my car was stripped bare i wouldnt change the colour to far from current imo

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
