AndrewJZX100 Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 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. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/216678-my-skyrine/page/2/#findComment-4035228 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhys5169 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 did this used to park on currie street, at that tyre shop???? if so was the best looking 4 door ive ever seen Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/216678-my-skyrine/page/2/#findComment-4045205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewJZX100 Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 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.

AndrewJZX100 Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 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) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/216678-my-skyrine/page/2/#findComment-4050602 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewJZX100 Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 WOO WOO exhaust is fixed with a Blitz Nur Spec :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 Reo is a wee bit closer to being aligned too, little more bashing to be done Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/216678-my-skyrine/page/2/#findComment-4067334 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewJZX100 Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 tail lights sourced - minty fresh series 2 items for $65 each thank you very much 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 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) Getting there Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/216678-my-skyrine/page/2/#findComment-4069088 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeJay Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 whats the diff between series 1 and 2 tailights? thought they were the same? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/216678-my-skyrine/page/2/#findComment-4069092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewJZX100 Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 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 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 If the 9j I've just bought fit well on the front, I'll go 10j +12 on the rear Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/216678-my-skyrine/page/2/#findComment-4069261 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewJZX100 Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Just wondering, why did you sell your jzx100? Because I am a f**king idiot 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).

Lock_to_lock Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 haha ok then. I thought that maybe they didn't feel sporty or something as they look much bigger. Iv never been in one.
