The Foria looked like it got smacked with a sackful of ugly.

Dude, at the risk of going a little off topic, I usually agree with your assesment of asthetic design, but I am yet to see you say a car looks good. Do you ever?

Dude, at the risk of going a little off topic, I usually agree with your assesment of asthetic design, but I am yet to see you say a car looks good. Do you ever?

Here's a quick list, off the top of my head.

FD RX-7. Hottest thing on 4 wheels to ever come out of Japan.

R34 Skyline. Broad shouldered. Hunkered down.

R32 GT-R. Aggressive

S15 Silvia. It'd be hot even if it wasn't looked upon favourable coming on the back of the S14.

V36 Skyline. Great lines, and a headlight design that doesn't look squished.

Accord Euro. It looks classy.

Ariel Atom. Form following function taken to the extreme.

Aston Martin V8 Vantage. Its just horn.

Mercedes Benz E Class. What a sophisticated luxury sedan should look like.

Alfa Romeo GT. If it was RWD I'd have one over my Z33

BMW Z4 (roadster or coupe). The "extreme" styling actually works on this car.

Seat Leon Cupra. One of the most aggressive looking hot hatches around.

Dodge Viper. What can I say? Its like a match box car you can kill yourself in.

Ford Mustang. Love the retro looks of the new one.

Chrysler 300C.

There might be more, but that's all I can think of right now.

Is it possible to have siphalis of the eyes?

Cos thats the only thing I see..

Thats the biggest hunk of shit i have ever seen!..

Looks like it was disigned by some terd smuggling Californian Hair dresser!

This rendering, which turned up on RocketPunch, gives a possible styling direction for the new coupe, and draws some of its lines from Nissan’s own Foria concept car.

Did any of you even read the article? It's not an official design or concept from Nissan...

Like syphillis?

It looks like shit. The front end looks like a Pulsar. The rear quarter looks like a V35 sedan. Considering how nice the S15 looks, this eyesore should not be its successor. Japanese manufacturers should leave building ugly cars to Subaru.

LOL its funny cos i work for subaru

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
