Looks nice like that, i would spend my money on brakes or handling or performance.

carbon fibre bonnett? Defect

lower car? scrapes on speedhumps and steep driveways and effects handling

front bumper of front lip?? I smashed my 400R on a driveway(gone back to stock)

Just my 2 cents.

some nismo clear side indicators? only like 80 bucks but i would spray the outer section white instead of leavin it black like a majority of ppl.

if ya going for styling looks (obviously cause u put it in this section lol) how bout some interior stuff?

how are ur wipers looking? mine looked a lil worse for wear so i sprayed em a matte black. made the front look a lil newer. but i guess only to me as i was the only one that knew i did it. lil things like that i like doing to brighten the car up a bit. anyway im rambling.

just have a close look around ur car and things u might wanna change, write them down and think of a way to do it. even the smallest things changed can make u feel better about the looks of ur car

yeh i was thinking the exact same thing the other day mate, was looking at my wipers and was thnking that they need a touch up hey. looking a bit worse for wear,. but yeh i guess i would be the only one that would notice it but would look better to me as im everyday noticing it.

clear indicators one step a head of ya hey haha waiting for them to arrive in the mail. yeh thats a good idea about spraying white,will keep that in mind for sure thanks mate.

another thing i did (but failed lol) was spray the rubbers around the windows. saned a few bits, taped it all up and sprayed fine. next day car was in sun for a while and all parts i didnt sand properly had gone wet again cause it didnt grab properly :) the B pillar garnish looks alot better though. will have to do a proper job. just used the same stuff as i did the wipers with.

so check over your car for bits that could use a touch up with some paint and give it a go.

    • That's awesome. Fully serviced/full log book history for one of those cars is super rare from what I know. With JDM's like Skyline's, Supras, are quite hard to find one with full log book history. S15's seem to be somewhat of an exception, at least the spec s australian delivered models.
    • Hey all, It's been a bit since I have been able to update.  I pulled the fuel pump, first off it was a "universal" pump and the strainer was very clogged, and it was folded over on itself.  I replaced the fuel pump and all is well....  No more stalling.

    • Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
