  1. Mk2 Nismo front bumper and SPC rear toe bolts ordered I'll be ordering the TS rear spats as a temporary improvement for the rear bumper until I can get a mk1 Nismo rear sourced. Somewhat tempted to get one imported through Z1, unless I can get hold of one second hand or through Nissan when I pop down to their HPC on Saturday... EDIT: Just had my quote back from Z1. The mk1 Nismo bumper, fitting kit, postage and import tax brings the cost to about £1000. Including painting this will then be around £1200.... Potentially an option but definitely more than I wanted to spend! Fair to say I'll be giving it a miss for a while and trying to get one second hand! Going to be ordering the RT performance duckbill wing this week also. Does anyone have any experience with these? How good is the fit? I have fitted a few aftermarket fibreglass parts before so I'd like to think I'm relatively capable for the installation. However, if it turns out the fitment is pretty poor and will require a bunch of work then I may put it on hold until I can get a professional to undertake the job. Any help with the above would be appreciated. Cheers
  2. Yeah that seems to be the issue I'm having. I'm not too fussed about a lead time, I just can't seem to find anyone who sells them. Even speaking direct to Nissan is next to useless! I'll hang on for a few months and keep trying to find one either new or used from a Nismo which has been crashed, otherwise the mk2 may be the way I'll have to go
  3. Yeah i can't believe it! To think i only purchased a single ticket makes it even more amazing The car will be going to my girlfriend as she has a 197 in LY already. Then we will be selling her old car and i will be getting the majority of the cash from that sale. Then the cash from that will no doubt end up being spent on the 370, even though i keep saying I'll put it in an ISA or something No pics of the engine bay unfortunately. Completely stock, besides some HKS panel filters, so nothing to look at
  4. Considering my plan for the first year of ownership was only a set of coilovers and spacers, It's not going too well I've only had it 5 months... Cheers mate And yeah, I cannot stand keeping it clean! Looks good for all of an hour or so before it's back to being dusty again. Either that or It's the water marks from the condensation overnight
  5. Cheers mate Hoping the addition of the bumpers etc. should add to that stealth look! Need to get my headlight internals sprayed black soon as well
  6. Removed the rear 20mm spacer and went up to a 275 tyre in the rear. Also had an alignment done to remove most of the camber on the rear and get the front toe sorted out. Rear toe bolts are seized though, so i will be purchasing a set of SPC rear toe bolts and installing those relatively soon. Hoping to get the mk2 Nismo front bumper, duckbill wing and a set of TS Sideskirt Extensions all ordered in the next few weeks. Also trying to get hold of a mk1 Nismo rear bumper soon, although that's seeming like an impossibility at the moment. Cannot wait till it all get's fitted! Anyway, here's a few pictures i managed to grab the other day:
  7. Hi All, Just wondering if anyone knows the part number for the mk1 Nismo rear bumper? I've had a look on here and can only seem to find people speaking of the 2015+ Nismo conversion. Also, i assume I'm going to need different arch liners etc. so if anyone has experience with what I'll likely need then that'd be great. Thanks
  8. Not exactly 370 related but figured some of you may be interested anyway. I entered a raffle thing on Facebook to win a Clio 197 in Liquid Yellow with a Megane 225 conversion. Needless to say i somehow managed to fluke it and win with only 1 ticket out of 500! I am still in shock! Picking the car up on Sunday! Fair to say it has been a very good day.... For anyone that is interested, spec is: Megane 225 Engine (274 bhp)Forge intercoolerMegane 250 turboFull piper Exhaust Megane 225 Gearbox with Quaife LSD .Short shifterHelix flywheelR26R Clutch H&R coiloversOz ultraleggeras with Avon ZZR tyres Renault sport front splitter200 rear diffuser Brand new 200 clocksHalf CageSparco Grid II SeatsHarnesses2010 1.2 rear lights
  9. Do we know what area the stand will be in yet? or is that decided once the deadline for club passes has passed?
