No. My S2 originally came with a Dayz bodykit. I since removed it and fitted a Dolphin kit and now I changed the front bar, yet again, for an Aero type M bar from Viva Garage. The grille is standard, I just took the double unicorn off. Got a Viva grille coming.

Altho my S2 came with Nismo badging on it, I'm trying to figure out what makes it so "Nismo" special? It has a Momo wheel, and some chrome handle on the back of the tailgate, Nismo badges, it did have GTR style rims (since replaced with 18"), but I'm still yet to discover any other items. I've seen a "Nismo" special Stag on ebay, but his looks more stock than mine (it doesn't even have Nismo badging). So I reckon mines a proper Nismo stag, but not fully aware of all the Nismo touches I'm sure.

noticed you've changed your front bar ruby, is there some place that makes them or somthing ?

Yep. Viva Garage here in Adelaide :)

roo that bar looks rather Viva garage like? How is the quility of it and was it direct bolt on?

Are you leaving it matte?

I drilled all the required holes myself and it bolted on no problem, altho the indicators took a bit of fiddling to fit.

No, I'll be painting it gloss black, but couldn't get it into the shop before the car show this weekend. So it goes in matt black for now. Didn't want to do a rush job.

:)

I've been thinking about getting the entire Stag resprayed Satin Black. :laugh:

I realised that as well, my response was more for BCK34 as he saked what style the bar is.

MIKE have you worked out what re-spray colour your car is?

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
