To get the picture displayed, you need to upload to an off site server like photobucket and then link to the image.

they don't come from factory with those indicators. When you get your cared complianced in Aus they are supposed to be put in.

I wish i didnt have them, they look like shit.

I might buy some new guards from japan when i get a full respray and not put them in.

To clear the above question regarding the side indicators on R32's it is my understanding that when compliancing these cars it depended on the person compliancing the cars interpretation of the ADR relating to the indicators.

Basically the ADR says that they are only required if at a certain angle the front corner indicator is not visible. But if you look at your front corner indicators they have a bit that protrudes at the edge with a second bulb. This allows the indicator to be seen from a greater angle to the side (and rear) of the car than would be otherwise possible. So some compliers obviously felt this covered the ADR while others were not certain and took the "its better to be safe than sorry" option.

Wow, I never thought I could right so much about something so small..... :D

Yep GTT rims :) Theyr a nice cheap rim (even though they were on when I got the car!!) The hardest part is finding centre caps for them. I paid $130 for the 4!!!

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
