Randomfry Posted July 27, 2009 Posted July 27, 2009 Very nice. That's pretty mental not hear of anyone putting an RB30 lump in one before. Quote

ben@RARE RIMS Posted July 27, 2009 Author Posted July 27, 2009 That was indeed magor... where engine 1 (rb26) released its grip on life, and so the plot for engine 2 (rb30) began. Quote
Chris`I Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 The question is for a Silver Z...Gunmetal OR Bronze Mine are going bronze next, hopefully before the Jockland Hoon Quote
sunset350z Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Trouble is, when i asked my local refurbishers to do my wheels Bronze, they asked what shade was i after??? Do you know the paint code for your bronze wheels please?? Quote
Chris`I Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Trouble is, when i asked my local refurbishers to do my wheels Bronze, they asked what shade was i after??? Do you know the paint code for your bronze wheels please?? Last time I got mine done, I took loads of pics of the shade I wanted. They said they could only get close, but IMO it was spot on my350z.com forums are your friend for loads of pics! Quote
sunset350z Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Yes i did that too. I took some pics with me to the local paint shop, and they pulled out a load of books full of swatches There were zillions of different shades, couldn't make up my mind so i gave up. If rarerims could give me a clue that be great Chris do you have the paintcode for it? Quote
ben@RARE RIMS Posted July 28, 2009 Author Posted July 28, 2009 We dont have the bronze paint code... I am waiting for Rota to get back to me with it, so I can be sure to get you the correct code Quote
Chris`I Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 I dont have the paint code unfortunately. I just took pics and they matched it last time. Maybe this time they will ask me which colour I want as bronze has a lot of shades! Quote
sunset350z Posted July 30, 2009 Posted July 30, 2009 Nismo wheels uses a special paint process called Alumite and thats how they get their shade of Bronze. Quote
ben@RARE RIMS Posted July 30, 2009 Author Posted July 30, 2009 I think it's just a form of anodising Bit more involved than painting. Quote
ben@RARE RIMS Posted October 19, 2009 Author Posted October 19, 2009 I am told due to the processes they use it's not as simple as just getting a code, but we are still working on it Once we have touch up paint for all the colours I am going to head to a paint supplier I think and spend an afternoon with their swatches Quote
