[Snowman]

Original before pic.

So now had the extra front lip, bonnet, front guards, side skirts, rear pods.... and all of the clear coat and a nice even all round colour!

LOL - look it was 37 degs or something when I got the car. It was FAR to hot to do all the nice little things. It was almost too hot to taken any pictures let alone be fancy with them.

Hopefully one day shortly I'll get a couple more good shots. Complete with the black rims and tyre shine (just for you Nick).

[adznight]

OMG, its clean. Doesn't look half bad either

[shepo]

Haha - less than 2 weeks. My 1st rally is on Jan 31st in Tassie. The car is being entered as a 2005 Nismo GT-R Z Tune (hence why I've done the kit).

Looks really nice andrew, I love the agressinve look of the Z tunes.

if the car is being entered into a rally as a Z tune, doesnt it have to actually be a Z tune. when they have a closer look at the car surely they would be able to tell if its the real deal?

good luck with it anyway!

[RBPOWA-(TJ)]

car looks nice as.

where's your boat ? both your neighbours have them.

bet thats a nice area to live in

[Mavric]

Looks good mate...

Mick has done a good job...

Just remember when you take the stickers off this time SLOWLY AND with a HAIR DRYER... The sun just isnt hot enough

Good work

[AGE]

Very nice Snowy! Looking the goods now!!!

Who's co-driving @ Tassie with you?

[Ronin 09]

Hi Snowy

hate you!

bye.

Regarding competition stickers.

Why don't you buy some "paint friendly" vynle, that is somewhat easy to remove, stick the competition stickers on your vynle, then cut around the sticker and stick that to your car. This would make the removal of the stickers easier and will not peel the clear coat off your car.

The sponsors of the event really don't give a shit what adhesive they use on their stickers and if it marks/strips the paint on a car. Just an idea to keep the car looking mint, after the event has come and gone.

[Basti]

looks nuts dude.

question why not do the skirts in black to match the lip and more Z Tune like??? but looks hot either way

wanna sell me you stock GTR bonnet??? lol

cant believe such a hot car is only a race car (or is it road registered as well???)

cant wait to see this in flesh at deca or next track day.

its road registered as far as i know. you might even see it around

Well given basically none of the N1 GT-R's doing targa are actual N1's the short answer is no it doesn't matter that it's not the genuine article. You can follow guidelines and build a "replica" which is the common thing to do for many of the cars including EVO's (RS) and WRX's (Spec C, 22b etc) amoungst other cars. Then of course there is the classics. I think you'd find a large % of the entrants are in non-genuine cars simply because the genuine ones cost far to much to buy and then butcher into race cars! Hell even the 2 well know Lambo Superlegga's aren't genuine ones (just standard Gallardo's) and I bet by the time Targa rolls around we'll see a couple of R35 GT-R Spec V's listed as well.

As for the Nav Age - James is doing the job first up and Dan is stepping in for April.

[Phatboy]

god damn that looks so good i wanna get a 60,000 loan and get one

Think it would cost a whole lot more than that to buy that car.

[Adz]

Looks good for a poor man's Z Tune.

Cant belive how clean it is.

Well done man!

[HIZOKU]

nice paint job there i had my car done at mi colour when this car was there and i have to say the work done at this place is 100%

now it is a Race car and this nice paint job will be stuffed as soon as u hit the track lol

[RNGTR]

Looking good Snowy....

[rtune]

Well I just picked the car up from Mick @ Micolour who has finished fitting the new Z Tune kit and spraying the whole car.

It's come up brilliantly (pics don't do it justice - will have to get some better ones later but it's too hot out there right now). But I'm wrapped with how it's turned out

Looks great!

is it the nismo z-tune bits, which are about 1500 USD for the l/r front wings alone, or are they look-alikes?

does the engine vent through the sides now, any decrease in temps?

[SABBAi]

It's looking ace Snowballs. Definantly a top notch job by Mick.

Good luck in Tassie. Road courses always had bizzare grip levels. Kinda like driving calder really.........
