LOL there's no such thing as DONE no matter how hard you try to tell yourself.

I have been telling myself this for the past year.

Ohh just a turbo and tune and I will be fine.

Now I have a water meth kit to be installed.

Already purchased coilovers and new rims since then.

Now looking at a new radiator, intercooler and exhaust.

What rims did you get kasko?

Also, it'll be a big moment when the chick from the orange skyline finally waves back. I wonder who will get the privilege!

those are pretty nice, grats. You going for the bat mobile black on black look huh

Yep :D

Was going to do matte black but after looking at it I like the way it is now.

Maybe a tad more low at the front.

But my exhaust is sooooo close to the ground.

Hence the new exhaust

Who rolled your guards for you?

I like the black on black, looks the goods.

I did it myself haha

Ended up buying a heat gun + rubber mallet and went to town on them. Worked out great!

Cracked the paint trying to use a bar and no heat gun but that was before I got the other stuff

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
