Definitive S12 Factory Paint Codes/names
« on: 12:20:21 PM / 10-Feb-10 »
Can someone help me with this? I'm looking for a complete and accurate list of all available paint codes with names for each year of the S12. I've looked at some PPG swatches and a few brochures I've seen online but do not know exactly what all was available and for what specific years for each territory.

Here is a swatch I made as an example. I think this is based on 1986 (Silvia).



Here are the PPG swatches I found for Datsun/Nissan. I'm guessing this is for North America mainly. In addition it is not specific to the S12 series unfortunately.

You seem to have done a pretty good job.  Lol.

I wish I could contribute more, but this thread is pinn-worthy.

Pin-worthy, yes. But why did you post this in the Garage, when there's a better place for it? (the Visual Mods and Audio section).

I'll move and pin it there.

Edit: On second thought... I may restructure the sections.

Hella flush and all associates should be gunned down for brainwashing people into thinking a 225 and lots of camber is proper wheel fitment. THAT IS EASY, anyone can camber a skinny as tire till it dosnt rub. Now fitting an 11 with a 315 on stock fender with reasonable camber, that is fitment. And looks, and performs better than both.
i dont own a s12 at the moment but trying to acquire one to get rid of my s13 hatch

I guess I was thinking paint and body. Didn't really think of mods.

Mine is 215 (Med. Pewter) over 210 (Lt. Pewter) from the factory, so I know that was an additional available color scheme for the S12 in the US.
