Definitive rally rep, for me, has to be a mica blue classic WRX STi, resplendent with 555 sticker kit for the full effect.

One of the guys at work has one in red. I can't decide whether or not it's trying too hard but I think I'd look daft in it, being in my forties. It certainly grabs your attention though and he rates it very highly. He came from an EP3 he had for 200,000 miles and he says it's night and day better all round.

Thanks for the welcome! To answer a few questions... I work at Renaultsport F1 team and have done since the Renault F1 Team days in 2006 (the World Championship seems such a long time ago), through the highs and lows of the Lotus F1 years, and on to the current resurgence* under French ownership. I live near the factory at Enstone, though I'm from Southampton originally and get down that way frequently. I don't have any plans to mod in the immediate future, though I'm going to have to do something about the wheels. I'm finding one in particular is getting a lot of damage to the edge simply from crap on the road. I can't believe there's another white one so nearby - I don't think I've ever seen a Nismo II on the road - howmanyleft.com suggests there's only about 150 in the country. Again, cheers for the welcome. *Resurgence in respect to factory and infrastructure, if not yet results!

Sorry for the delay, I started the topic at work and had to wait until I was home to get any pics.

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone else with the 19" Rays on their Nismo has found them to be incredibly soft and susceptible to damage? Mine are fewer than 300 miles old yet there are a couple of deep(ish) scars on the wheel-rim. They're obviously not from kerbing the wheel, rather from being hit by stones or other road detritus. IMO, they're not really fit for purpose if they can't withstand normal wear and tear - although all of the damage is confined to a single wheel, which is making me even more suspicious. I'll try taking it up with the dealership but I'm thinking about having them all clear powdercoated, in order to toughen them up a bit. Any comments?

Hi all. I've been lurking around and reading the forum for a few weeks and it's great to see such a pleasant social aspect, interwoven with a wealth of information. I'm a first-time Z owner, although I've been lucky enough to own a fair few cars that wouldn't look out of place in Fast Cars magazine. Maybe I'll write up a car history in another sub-forum at some point. Anyway, I'm an F1 engineer by trade, I live in Oxfordshire and I'm cruising quickly through my forties - much to my chagrin. My wife drives a 2016 Nismo Juke and I've recently obtained a 2017 370Z Nismo. Both are resplendent in Storm White. I look forward to getting to know you all. Nex.
