Could you also tell me what else it says on the can or what brand of color and/or mixing machine they use? So i can make out something useful out of that code :P

Is it by any chance Cadburys Purple color name?

Just got a d16a9 engine and box full linkage and mounts, came with a short shift and a 4 branch manifold and a rear Megan racing strut brace pink anodised colour all for 200 quid. Get pics soon :)
What is my best option: high compression 1.3 or put the full d16 in? Opinions please
