After nearly 4months since that moron ran up the back of me while I was waiting at a set of lights, I finally got my car back on Friday. Click here for crumpled rear end pic

It's been way too long. But I am so happy to have her back. She even looks different nowadays. I do these ones :D everytime I start her up and hear that GT30r spool.

(here's what she looked like before)

Anyway, onto the pics of my updated 'line:

noice! you could even do the roof and pillars black and have a full on panda san-san.

I thought about it, but then I started thinking about going satin black on all the white bits...and then I thought about how silly I am to start thinking about thinking about doing such things. :D

Wow, what a finish looks awesome & also a bit different! Love the new rear boot very nice! You must be happy to have her back lookin better then ever!

Thanks dude, I'm very happy to have her back. Every time I look at her it just looks like a new car for some reason. It just doesn't look as fat and plump anymore. Looks a little bit more sleeker I reckon.

finally..

looks awsome, wheres the boot from?

Took their time didn't they!

Boot matches the bonnet. It's from East Bear - Japan. Jo from Powerplay (if you read this thanks heaps Jo!!!) got it in ages and ages ago, the smash repairers had the boot within a week of me dropping my car off. But I got my car 4 months later....

Thanks guys :D. I love the end result. I guess for every bad there's a good.

Despite taking along time to do the work, the smash repairers I chose did a really good job. Going over it this morning (couldn't sleep) I noticed the panel gaps are really good, I can't even tell that they chopped the boot floor out, and they didn't screw around with my car despite me leaving the FC controller plugged in and unlocked (I wouldn't have done this unless I knew the guys...). So those are all good things. Shows they can be trusted...even if it means waiting a long time.

I decided to do away with the big sticker... Mainly because they had to remove/cut/panel beat the drivers rear quarter and it has brand new paint on it which you're not supposed to stick anything on to for up to 30 days. I think it looks cleaner now though. :D

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
