Tackleberry Posted May 31, 2014 Author Posted May 31, 2014 Decats are amazing, No cel lights either. Didnt like my old y pipe though, think the extra flow finally saw it off, so i replaced that too! Still to get my car back from a mate whos sorting the front bumper for me. Just not had a chance to do a write up of recent developments yet! Will include a video of the decats! Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 1, 2014 Author Posted June 1, 2014 So a few exhaust bits recently added to my existing nismo system. Really in need of a remap now as its running a bit rich. Stillen y Pipe from Tarmac Berk decats from smudge Resulting in inadvertent initial d style lets see whose car is louder battles! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tq746W3X7T0&list=HL1401647002&feature=mh_lolz Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 9, 2014 Author Posted June 9, 2014 So something happened at the weekend i opened the wrap and had a go! Much trickier than it looks! Quote
Reeco Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 That blue looks amazing, and FairPlay for trying to wrap it yourself, I didn't even have the patience to do my rear strut brace! Love the video also, was the Z "up revved" in the end? That 86 is stunning to, I'd love one! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 10, 2014 Author Posted June 10, 2014 Not mapped yet, thats still on the shopping list. Wrap came first. Cant wait for the revup though. Think ive covered most of the cookie cutter non forced induction mods. I'm waiting for a local guy to get up and running with his rolling road and mapping setup as i dont fancy a drive down south.

AliveBoy Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 Dude, that colour is amazing. I envy you. I hate you. I love you Keep at it Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 11, 2014 Author Posted June 11, 2014 Cheers, yeah the colour looks great. Just need to finish it! Been thinking of doing something like this when its done. Its not a permanent so might just try it out. 1 Quote
AliveBoy Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Only do it if you have matching tyres on all 4 corners, might look silly if not 1 Quote
pjf1985 Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Only do it if you have matching tyres on all 4 corners, might look silly if not My thoughts exactly. I wanted to try this but my fronts and rears are different Quote
AliveBoy Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Only do it if you have matching tyres on all 4 corners, might look silly if not My thoughts exactly. I wanted to try this but my fronts and rears are different Same, hence why I mentioned it 1 Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 11, 2014 Author Posted June 11, 2014 I have 4x falken 453s so im good 2 Quote
AliveBoy Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 try it with chalk pen, then if it looks gash on your car you can clean it off easily Quote
Grundy Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Only do it if you have matching tyres on all 4 corners, might look silly if not My thoughts exactly. I wanted to try this but my fronts and rears are different Same, hence why I mentioned it I was going to do this, except my problem isn't matching tyres, but matching wheels 3 Quote
CamThow Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Looks great man, Just incase you didn't know, Wallace Performance will remap, but use a piggyback unichip. Was just under 500 when I got a quote. (way cheaper than traveling south to get it done!) Quote
GMballistic Posted June 14, 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 ^^ Very nice and like the garage, ...can't even open one of my bl**dy doors hardly in my garage. Quote
Almeida1234 Posted June 14, 2014 Posted June 14, 2014 Tasty Are looking to put canards on the bumper? Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 15, 2014 Author Posted June 15, 2014 Tasty Are looking to put canards on the bumper? Nah going to keep it as clean as possible. Will be having some carbon fibre mirrors though. So replaced the gear knob today. They say it takes brute force, an understatement.... Anyone looking for a used gear knob? lol Heres the new one. Would post some pics of the bumper after wrapping today but im not happy with it so going to redo it next weekend. Quote
Geo92 Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Brute force? That's an understatement haha! I can't even begin to make sense of that photo! Mine just twisted off happily.. Looks good though. Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 29, 2014 Author Posted June 29, 2014 Few updates from yesterday. Removed the rear wiper. Easiest mod ever! Then proceeded to remove the wing mirrors and door handles to plasti dip! Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 29, 2014 Author Posted June 29, 2014 Did the doors and roof rails today and fitted my handles and mirrors again. Very pleased with the results! 2 Quote
GMballistic Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 You've done a half decent job there Tackleberry. ;) Quote
Tackleberry Posted June 30, 2014 Author Posted June 30, 2014 Cheers! Plasti dip is so easy though. Its very forgiving! Quote
Angrybiker Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Car's looking awesome mate. What size grommet did you use when blanking off your wiper. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
