Fair play to ya lad. Really brought it back from the brink! Wanted to buy it when Maurice had it but was lacking the money.

Before Christmas I had put a question up on the SilviaRepublic FB page as i'd seen a few Chuki 180s with very tidy looking fog lights. I wanted to know what brand they were or if they were a factory option as they all looked similar. Here's an example:



They look epic. I did some searching as they all looked similar and i wanted the exact model. Low and behold, they turned out to be an OEM factory option, despite almost everyone on SilviaRepublic saying they didn't exist and weren't ever offered by Nissan. This was music to my ears as i love a challenge to find some rare parts. I put out the feelers and much to my surprise, within a few hours i had sourced a pair. In ireland no less. Complete with wiring and everything. Seemed too good to be true! But it wasn't. I have them now, I just need to get some dry weather to fit them in. Here they are:





Can't wait to fit them.

I've also sourced some of the niggly little bits that I've been searching for. I got the boot rubber seal for the wiper arm. Also picked up the rear facing washer jet and the little handle for my passenger seat recliner function. All stupid stuff, but it's what makes a good car great.

Some attention to detail in this build. Shaping up to be super clean!

So I got pulled for not having the front number plate on the car. He said i 'might' be getting a summons. BALLS Also, my turbo packed it in on Sunday. It's in the garage right now getting a replacement fitted. Staying t25 because I can't be spending loads on it right now.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone. I ordered USDM bumper lenses, can't wait for them to arrive. Still haven't fitted the speakers because of the weather. Must fit my strut braces too. Although i consider the car 'complete', It's never going to be finished

It's lookin great now man, is a car ever 'finished'? Haha
