Great update, worth the wait

What's news then?

Oh now that's a lovely colour!! Really nice work mate For wheels, maybe a dirty bronze / Volk colour.

My OH works for a local Nissan dealership so I went along to their launch event at the weekend. I just love all the minor changes changes they made to adjust airflow over the body. Although I did spent most of my time looking at the 370 Nismo I don't think it was out then?

Couple of quick alcantara pictures! Really pleased with this, and well worth the wait - I've had the kneepads at my desk for months now waiting to sort out the gaiter. The material match is excellent with the rest of the Alcantara interior. Took this quick pic whilst cleaning the car yesterday too, amused me! Every few weeks I pick off the fraying bits of plastic from the front lip. This is the most recent bit. Hopefully soon the front lip will wear down and stop hitting on things

No need to shout, he's till on the standard exhaust Looks a great upgrade mate, you won't look back! My second favourite colour too

You've posted on his build thread twice Granville

GTR start button. Good for around 50bhp

Such a tease! Come on with the pics already

I really REALLY need to stop clicking into this thread. Cracking updates mate, super jelous of your trips, makes me want to do another Euro tour. Glad you made it Reims too, its a great photo opporunity and general wander about

Coming on quickly. Can't wait to see it done, going to look great!

Price seems about right matey

Sounds great

Me? Been every year since 2008, last year was in an MR2

Cheers Bobster! Gave the car a good clean today ready for JAE tomorrow. Also finally fitted my new gear knob, Alcantara gaiter, and Alcantara knee pads

Looking forward to catching up with a few of you

Never a bad thing. Atleast there you will stand out and get views as opposed to being lost in a sea of the same car. Much like we did on the MR2 stand We're on stand W22 mate, pop by if you get a mo

I'm no expect by any stretch of the imagination. However have a Google and install the 'Exodus' plugin for Kodi. TV, movies etc etc all at your finger tips. I'd also recommend getting the Kodi Remote app for your phone. I got mine for the App Store for free, not sure if there is an Android phone version (Would have though so)

Coming along nicely

I think these are the wheels that come on imports that don't have the Rays Wheels. Could be wrong though. Looks like a good refurb

Decat is pretty easy to swap back to normal cats, but you if you have the tools, or easy job for a garage. This all depends on what age, mods, history etc etc. Does it have to be within 80miles for a strict reason? seems a little precise. I usually travel a lot further when looking at potential cars, and have purchased cars that require a 5 hour drive to collect in the past. If its the right car then its always worth the extra time as opposed to a local one that may not be the same condition.

Burnt tips look good at all times IMO. I have them on my ARK and they look great

Hi Rob, The guys should be more than able to sort the spacer colour at at the same time. I was in some what of a rush do didn't get them done this time, but may have a go at home as I have the paint code. Just need to be careful not to paint the mating face of the spacer - I have read that powder coat or paint on the mounting faces can sometimes cause issues as the wheel might not sit at the right angle.

Picked the car up late this afternoon from the guys at The Wheel Specialist. We started with Sepang Bronze and tried a few different mixes and finished, ended up going for straight forward Sepang with matt lacquer. The colour is a little darker than I was expecting but I think its great. Colour aside the refurb is second to none, the wheels look brand new!! After JAE I'll look to remove the 'silver' from the car as the door handles now stick out somewhat! So I'll attack the car with Gloss black (Door handles, side indicators, Z badges etc). I may even try the front fangs in black, I originally wasn't going to but think it could work well with the darker wheels. I'll no doubt have some much better pictures from JAE this weekend, but here are a few quick car park pictures to show the colour.
