Yellow R33GTR...
I'm tempted. To paint my second R33 yellow, that is.
A little novel, yes, but I have seen the odd yellow one, I know it's not a stock colour, which may mean I have to mod the car slightly to make it look right, but hey. Actually, I believe it was the R33 GTS-T Nismo LM, that can come in a yllow flavour, which may mean the need for me to fiddle with tailpipes and perhaps bumpers. Comments? Or should I stick with Mica Red?  Last edited by Noz; 04-09-2002 at 03:58 PM. |

IMHO,
I have seen a couple of primary colour GTRs (red, bright blue) and they look a little "stink" Silver, Midnight Purple, Black, Dark Dark blue - all look good. I reckon metallics, and dark colours look the best. However - each to their own and the Fast N Furious GTR looked pretty mean in yellow. |

  Doesn't actually look too bad there... Also, bear in my the R33 I'venearly finished is purple, so I wanted something to contrast it on the shelf, not another dark maetallic colour. Hence either red or, more risqué, yellow. |

It was seeing that photo that jogged my memory
 Right then, aftermarket bits, which mufflers do you guys tend to use for the 'larger' look? As for rims, I was thinkig I might get some Nismo ones, all have to come from HLJ, as the shops round here are pitiful. On second thoughts, the VeilSide rims look rather nice |

that's the link to the car.....i know it's no skyline....but it's yellow...it has the bronze te-37's .... so you get the point....looks nice eh?.....well i think it does...just an idea....  if you're not sure of te-37's look at the signal auto SV version....it has te-37's but they're white...and the car is like midnight purple....it runs 8 sec in the quarter mile on street tires....  ......and the SV stands for "street version"....yea rite...
