ok went on a job in Texas for a bit. So the car sat for a few weeks. But I got some work done.

Did the brakes.

Looks a lot more clean. I think the car had original rotors and pads. The front could have been changed they had life on them....the rears were getting really close to metal lol.

Also got the oil cooler/relocation kit done.

I wish I would have tried to do an oil change first before buying this lol. It is no where near as hard to get to the stock filter as the internet makes it sound. If you have big forearms, I can see why. But if you are relatively small, try it first. It literally took 5 minutes to get off. That was because it was on pretty tight lol. Probably would have just got a sandwich plate and cooler if I knew that. But it works very well, temps definitely stay down.

Also got some more parts in. Forgot about these lol.

N1 brake air guides, these work really well with the factory undertray/ lip air guides.

they just go on the tension rod. I haven't put them on yet. Its just been rainy and cold here. I don't take the car out in bad weather. If you still have the factory duct work from the lip they work perfect. On standard GTR they just dump into the wheel well brake area with no further direction. These guides pick up perfectly where the ducts leave off and direct that air onto the rotor.

cool ill see if i can get them new. wouldnt mind a set

Yea I'm not sure if they are still available from Nissan. I don't think they are, but they could be. This guy just had them and never used them.

had the old tensioner squeel going on. Cold weather must of really got to it. It got pretty bad, started doing it at idle also. At first I thought it could be the fan, but it never went away no matter how warm I got the engine. Sounded like it was from the front cover, so I just assumed it was the tensioner. Glad I had all the stuff sitting around. Replaced water pump, idler, tensioner, spring, cam gears and timing belt. Wish I would of had a radiator and harmonic balancer lol. Perfect time to change.

out with the old, in with the new.

    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
