Recommended Posts

I got some more work done, using this topic as a notepad :D

 

Recently completed

  • Spark plugs replaced - NGK Iridium IX

  • Oil & filter changed (again…)

    • Turns out the Nissan dealership did NOT replace the oil filter during last year’s major service. It was already in the bin before I realised I should’ve taken photos and reported it…

  • Front lower ball joints replaced

  • Right knuckle replaced (OEM) (don’t ask)

  • Boot popper springs replaced (heavy duty)

  • Boot struts replaced

 

I am going to add some more stuff to done and will create a to-do list :D

Things done so far

  1. Major service at Nissan - NEVER again

  2. New tyres (Michelin Pilot Sport 5)

  3. Front bumper resprayed

  4. Headlights cleaned and restored - Needs doing again, looking to replace lens instead of cleaning this time. We'll see...

  5. Dashcam installed (Viofo A229 Plus, hardwired)

  6. Antenna replaced and base refinished - Chipping a little bit, what can I say, TEMU antenna :D

  7. Underbody may need rust proofing, will do it this summer

  8. Head unit is working when the car gets warm. I am guessing there is some kind of condensation in it, on the lens or sth. 

  9. A-pillar finisher replaced

  10. Door seal replaced

  11. Rear wiper arm cover replaced

  12. New emblems bought – still not fitted

  13. OEM Spoiler installed

  14. Spark plugs replaced - NGK Iridium IX

  15. Oil and filter changed again

  16. Front lower ball joints replaced

  17. Right knuckle (OEM) replaced 

  18. Boot popper springs replaced with heavy duty

  19. Boot struts replaced

To-Do (not in order)

  • Front lip
  • Aluminium undertray
  • Polybush kit
  • Headlight lens replacement
  • New antenna, preferably OEM
  • Underbody rustproofing
  • Fitting new emblems
  • Rear strut is chipping a little bit, may replace it, may wrap it, idk probably replace at some point
  • brake pads. Before 19th april
  • brake kit? I am not sure about this one
  • New rims. RPF1 preferred. When I have enough money to spare, maybe in 2-3 years lol
  • Maybe, just MAYBE coilovers? want to keep her stock, but... let's say if I get RPF1s definitely, if not maybe.
  • I need a clean auto knob. Older version.
  • HKS Speed limiter defencer, must be done before 19th April
