Aero front bar, some simple skirts on the side and rear would top it off. Looks good though, In a whale like way lol

The way you damage front bars; an Aero front bar is just going to end in tears.

Dale speaks wise. Well the car is going to be lifted in time to gain benefits from the engine upgrade and forced induction. So a aero bar may come later but right now its all muffler on deck

Ok so havent updated in a while and some changes are happening to the stagline: First is a "new" VLSD out of a wrecked jap spec 350Z coupe $490 posted from japanese import spares to my door in newcastle, is going to be shimmed and replacing the 3.3 standard open diffs that sedans are graced with. Should be interesting to see how it goes. Has anyone here ever done it?

Also have a major exhaust leak at the moment. Hole roughly an inch wide and 5inches long. Solution is a midpipe from a V35 coupe. Same length but with a smaller muffler. Cant use 350Z as it is 6inches shorter. This with the straight pipes out the back will result in a nicer and deeper note (hopefully).

Also doing a general oil and filter change and transmission fluid change. Just a few things to get after that: M35 front reo bar, passenger weathershield, inner gaurds and under plastic and thats basically how its staying until july when it gets a new engine, box and other things too........

Had the car raised to goto panel beaters because some L plater hit it, not bad damage tho. So its 100mm ground clearance on R32 GTST stock wheels that just clear the brakes. Got the diff and coupe midpipe but its on hold until car gets fixed, then theyll be put in and it will be getting slammed yet again. Seat rails is what i wanna fix because tho the car is (was) slammed it still felt high and would love some super low rails, anywhere i can get some. Would like to keep factpry seats but not required.

Yeh bride super lows, but they won't fit the stock seat, you'll need something like euro 2's for comfort..

Speak to ARK design. They have good seats for cheap too with bride rails

And then compare pricing from this Ebayer http://stores.ebay.com.au/4x4-and-Performance-Online?_trksid=p4340.l2563

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
