September 14, 200420 yr comment_95132 Yeah, light blue. But can you get the plastic tube-thing that goes on the end? Is it worth having? I was going to put in a c.a.i. thing I got someplace, but the rubber coupler didn't match.

September 14, 200420 yr comment_95138 Only thing I can chip in is the paint code is 510. Call Nissan, and they should be able to give you the correct name.

September 14, 200420 yr comment_95146 Les at Classic Datsun makes this color up in spray cans. I have 2 cans on order right now. If you ask him, he just calls it "Air Cleaner Blue" Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13225-78-280z-oem-air-filter-housing/#findComment-95146 Share on other sites More sharing options...

September 15, 200420 yr Author comment_95288 Spoke with Les today. He doesn't have "air cleaner blue". He does have the paint for the rear tail light panels. I'll let you know how much.

September 20, 200420 yr Author comment_95763 Is Datsun Engine Blue the correct color?

September 20, 200420 yr comment_95765 Is Datsun Engine Blue the correct color?Nope. Too dark. the engine blue is a dark turquois (sp?). The air cleaner is a light "sky" blue, with a little green tint to it.
