Personally i think it looks bloody awsome :rofl:!!, the only little things i would add/change are some nismo clear or smoked side indicators, some tints and possibly some nismo carbon pillars to match the carbon hood, keep the stock front bar, adding a stupid looking front kit will ruin it completly in my opinion.

I just saw your car advertised on trademe (im from NZ), any chance you could tell me how much you payed for the wheels and were you got them from?? send me a p.m if you like.

Anyway i think your car looks great, i wouldnt change anything, good luck selling the car if you do decide to sell it :(.

Im thinking of getting rear sides and windscreen tinted, and leaving the fronts untouched......dnt know how much to go.....and yeh i think thats the plan - looks wise its all good now, m planning on getting a carbon boot/spoiler if i can though.....

Car looks awesome and doesn't really need anything done!

But if you are like me and get bored, so you feel you must do more, i would do the following:

- window tint

- GTR style grill

- 400R rear bar and pods. Looks almost std, but is alot phatter. Just makes the ass end look phat, especially with the stealth wing. (keep the standard front bar, as it looks good as is; also doesn't break or crack when you gutter it or something similar :nyaanyaa: )

- Nismo smoked side indicators

- Ganador style mirrors or maybe even the "tear drop style"

    • A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
    • FYP. Sadly. Even bolt cutters wouldn't take 2 sec. But in the days of 18v angle grinders, nothing is safe.
    • One piece driveshaft I would recommend a dual CV setup otherwise stick to OEM. I have heard most one piece driveshafts cause excess vibration otherwise. The transmission grind I'm quite familiar with. You can try shockproof gear oil, otherwise you need a new transmission. The shifter is extremely simple on these cars. If you want pull apart the assembly and replace the plastic bushing but I doubt that fixes anything. The tail light issue is very common, unfortunately new tail lights are long discontinued. The trunk antenna going up always is because your radio doesn't have a true power antenna control, just remote amp power signal. There is a blank switch plate that you can pop out and install a switch for this or alternatively source a head unit that has proper antenna control. Throttle body sticking you have to disambiguate by disconnecting the cable and seeing if the linkages are the problem or something else. There is a procedure to adjust them, refreshing them is also somewhat involved if that's the issue. I have dealt with many of these issues. Old cars really are fractals of problems. The more you fix the more you discover there is to fix.
    • Welp, you've got a long list of experiences right there. I'd say you're on the right path.
    • That's correct, suits my requirements a bit better. Sure there are also numpties there, however it's generally a different vibe and more my kind of vibe.
