I don't know I didn't like the aero bumpers at first but kinda growing on me now but there like hens teeth to find in good condition might use a spoon dc2 lip or something

got new bumper off the auctions just a long wait ahead to recieve it genuine aero bumper with carbon bottom canards and i think custom middle ones

also got new wheel studs,nuts and clear distributor cap off gktech bit of a pain that shipping was actually more than the cost of the items. read somewhere that front s15 studs are differant than rear and these were the only company that supplied differant ones for front and rear and nuts are steel not alloy so wont pull threads as easily

[drifter kid]

just out of curiosity when you buy on the auctions do you just send the stuff directly to ireland or is there like a middleman sort of setup?

[mattybyrne2008]

There a middle man

[boot]

That's beautiful lad we'll wear

[teejay]

fair nice mauj... shit getting done!!

[mattybyrne2008]

Picked this up the weekend arc almininim rad should be nice with the arc cooling panel. Anyone know of a arc rad cap for sale in toyota or nissan fitment mail me please. Thinking now I'm just going to through a few bits I have for the car on get it tested and enjoy it for the summer and spray it during the winter. Pulled it into friends garage at the weekend and put on the turbo and downpipe and test fitted the front wheels maybe with max camber and slight arch roll they'll sit nice. Any opinions with s15 steel front wings rolled I'm 50/50 at the minute because of the flat part of the wing that has to be rolled would it look odd??

Sweet car lad love them bride seat lookin for a clean enough purple one now

[mattybyrne2008]

are you putting over fenders on the rear?

I taught I was going to have to fit over fenders but now I don't think I have to but I want to fit origin type 2 fenders as I'm really disliking the mold on archs at the minute but the car came in from japan fitted so nothing I can really do with them only fit fenders to it.i think the origin type 2 fenders only come in +50 doh I think maybe that's a bit wide for these wheels and I don't want to run spacers??

The other seat finally arrived after waiting since Christmas got them fitted but didn't get any pictures got to dark. The one I got from Japan is nice bit cleaner than the other I bought herehttp://i569.photobucket.com/albums/ss132/mattybyrne2008/IMG_1316_zps1bacaa63.jpg (http://s569.photobucket.com/user/mattybyrne2008/media/IMG_1316_zps1bacaa63.jpg.html)

New shoes arrived old ones were worn badly and couldn't get them in any autofactors so priced genuine ones and project mu ones and it seemed pointless going for the genuine ones

Got few jobs done with it the weekend fitted my seats, steering wheel, gear gaitor, gear knob, handbrake flyoff button, rear suspenion arm's and rear brake shoes. Took apart all the arm's wire brushed up the threads and copper greased them for just handiness sake of adjusting and greased the rose joints some people don't recommend greasing the joints but can't see why not when they have protective boot's. Sold my old checkered matts hopefully order genuine supermade red ones soon works bell snap off kit and few more defis and interior will be finished.

Few pictures

Got bit of motivation off friends to get the car back on the road for awhile.

Rolled the front wings for to lower it abit more. Removed the wings after to paint so I moved the wiring loom a small bit while they were off.

Also baught a orc 409d single plated clutch as my old release bearing siezed and went in through the pressure plate of my blitz clutch so was just easier buy this and also replaced the box as 3rd gear was really bad in my own picked one up for cheap enough so it will do for the time been.

While the car was over in a friends body shop I got them to fit the mirrors I baught a while back think they have really transformed the car just the smallest of things make such a difference.

Also collected my bumper off jdm distro to say this bumper was light is a understatement it was paper tin so he put a couple of layers of fibreglass into it to strengthen it up a bit for me. Got all the bits sprayed I had for it for a long time side skirts and rear bumper just waiting to find plastic rear spats now to finish the rear bumper. Can't wait for winter to cut the quarters off it for over fenders but they'll have to do for now .

Looks savage matty, i think cutting the arches rather than spending the time to pull them would devalue her?

[mk2glenn]

Needs the spoiler to go with the aggressive front end, will look well! Could you not run more camber and smaller tyres and the wheels will clear OK?

[Andrew200sx]

would look cool....something like big country labs legs so the spoiler sits a bit further back on the car.

[derek89]

Will look savage wit the wing on it man.

I'm going over fenders on the rear anyway cutting old ones off it and making my own front owns from 2 sets of wings that's the plan anyway..

Also bought a donor engine to forge.Engine had been lying outside for a few years so got it really cheap but didn't really matter to me as I'll be changing 90% of the internals anyway. Braught it home and began into stripping it down. Head off just waiting on engine stand to strip the bottom end.
