It did look fair tough in real life, but white was always the plan so I painted it up and cleared it today, so now the wing and lip are ready to go, but I reckon I'll hold off on mounting them properly until I at least get some rims.

One more pic just before I took it off.

Maybe. 2 of the blokes at Adelaide Tyrepower had matching 4 doors, this was one. It did look fking tough with the Weds meshies it was sporting back in the day. Doesn't look so crash hot now though :(

Not gonna bother fixing it either, just gonna track it and thrash the crap out of it :) It has a fair bit of rust that was hidden before, so it's no great loss of a shell really.

Well I pulled the back out a little bit today with the aid of a tow rope + the cressida (ghetto style is how I roll). I can fit a tail light in there now and can almost fit the bumper back up so thats forward progress I spose.

And I also got bored so decided to chuck the lip on all painted. I reckon it looks aight (save for the fact it desperately needs wheels)

WOO WOO exhaust is fixed with a Blitz Nur Spec :D :D with the silencer in, it's fkn quiet as a mouse. No more waking the neighbours when I get home from work at like 3 - 4 in the morning :P:)

Reo is a wee bit closer to being aligned too, little more bashing to be done :cool:

tail lights sourced - minty fresh series 2 items for $65 each thank you very much :ban:

Also grabbed some alloy cradle lock spacers and steering lock spacers. Solid cradle and more lock shall be FTW when I get around to fitting them :O

Will take a heat gun to the bar later on and see if I can get it back to normal shape (or close enough to) :sick:

Getting there :P

Series 2 look ever so slightly different, in that they have reflectors in the middle of the hotplate bits and a horizontal crease line that lines up with the bottom of the boot/top of rear bar. I reckon they look a little nicer then the earlier tail lights.

I forgot to mention before, my SSRs rocked up too :O 16 x 8 +20. Fitted on the front with a 20mm spacer to clear the brakes should look pretty tough, but I'll do that when the 16 x 9 +16s I just bought arrive. Until then they are rears (will use aformentioned 20 mm spacer on the front with my 16 x 8 +38 Watanabes)

I've also come across some Fabulous (brand) rims available in 16inch with widths up to 10j and offsets that go right down to -31 :ban:

If the 9j I've just bought fit well on the front, I'll go 10j +12 on the rear :sick:

Just wondering, why did you sell your jzx100?

Because I am a f**king idiot :domokun:

No seriously, get one. Nothing will seem as good any more (hence why I have absolutely no problem throwing the 32 into a cliff, it's only skyline junk to me)

I'd get another one but I'm trying to slow down spending on cars (modding them is pretty exxy).

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
