ncie one! think ive never seen a 00 one, looking forward to see the "finished" version of it

things have been going slow on this as im saving for my hols at the min. Still working on sorting the lil niggles that are annoying me .

first up was ditch the poxy caliper paint for something a lil less max power


little better now


when i bought the car the drivers window was stuck up so after looking high and low and cross referencing part numbers etc i had to go order one in japan from amayama. Took 3 weeks in total to come but at least its in now


one of my main gripes with the car was the drivers rear fly window. For the last few years its been a cut of perspex so i got onto Julian in Garage-D in watford and he hooked me up with a replacement




20 mins later all fitted. (its been fitted with a matching tint since)


as with most jap cars the interior is dull as hell so just done what id done with my old 34 and used a few cuts of a carbon vinyl to cover window switches

With the good weather i got to give it a good wash. I spent a few hours on the exterior giving it a wash, iron cleanse, paint renovater, clay bar and a wax . I also removed the nissan logos from the bonnet and bootlid. Im debating on removing the SKYLINE from the bootlid also. The exterior of the car looks and feels much better after a good cleaning







To stop my wheel rubbing issue on the rear i arranged to get Romeo Cesar to come up and roll my arches and he did a top job on it. doesnt rub at all now and dropped another 17mm using a 18x10.5 et12 rear wheel with a 234/40/18 tyre



ordered one of these from jesse streeter should have it in a week. Its a newly released Yashio Factory Oakachan v2 water meter that displays speed,rpm,temp,throttle, injector etc and works from the diagnostic port so no hard wiring. These are on available for nissan currently.

Cheers lads my front lip in here now and I've located skirts. Still need rear spats

[NoelB]

Excellent stuff. If Ya don't mind me asking how much was the Oakachan gauge?

[Kruizer]

Lovely car to be fair and will only get better with your building it

[ste]

Well car is now got a fresh Nct failed on first attempt due to headlight alignment and a centre brake bulb being blown, overall i was chuffed it didn't fail on more


got my Yashio okachan water meter v2 from Jesse Streeter yesterday so threw in in there this evening. Its a cool bit of kit plugs straight into diagnostic port. just used an apex stand on it for the min.













also removed rear spoiler and sold to a guy in oz got good money for it so was happy enough and my Fortune auto front splitter arrived so just taped it together as it was cut in two in japan to check fitment and its perfect.. Hope to get the boot lid , rear bumper and front bumper and splitter painted in the next 2 weeks or so..
