laidbackluke Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Hi All I've owned my 350z since July, after saving my ass of at work and making a tidy profit on my previous car Here's a photo of how it looked when i picked it up from the garage Over the last month or so it's undergone quite a few changes: - Rota Grid 18's - Driftworks Steering wheel and removable boss - various engine bay bits and new strut brace - JWT pop charger - front splitter there's a few more that i cant really remember of the top of my head however when i get some time later today I will post up some photos of how the car looks now Until I do the outside shots here's a quick one of how the engine bay currently looks Hopefully by the weekend will have a nice shiny carbon engine cover and Berk Z tube to finish it off. I still have a few things that i want to put on the car, such as: - coilovers - Nismo v2 front bumper with canards - side steps - OEM spoiler - spacers - Remap and some form of rear bumper/diffuser or spats, havent made my mind up yet! any comments or suggestions always welcome thanks for the warm welcome to the forum too!

KyleR Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 So it was you who outbid me at the last second Quote
laidbackluke Posted September 30, 2013 Author Posted September 30, 2013 So it was you who outbid me at the last second ahh sorry dude! Quote
laidbackluke Posted October 8, 2013 Author Posted October 8, 2013 Quick update! Big thanks to Darren_B and to Tarmac as i have recently got some coilovers and side steps, being fitted Saturday by the Shed of Zed! :D Quote
laidbackluke Posted October 14, 2013 Author Posted October 14, 2013 So i spent this Saturday up at the infamous Zed Shed getting my coilovers and side steps fitted. I got the seal of approval too It was really nice to meet some faces from the forum, and can safely say you couldn't ask for a nicer bunch of people Buster very kindly sacrificed his Saturday to sort my car out for me, so HUGE thank you's to him! So here's a few of the finished product! next up is a play around with the tyre sizes and maybe bring the front down a touch (Sorry Buster haha!) Also due to a wet Sunday i couldn't get on with spraying the door handles, so instead nipped out and took a few photos of the zed and the interior too Really happy with the progress! the sidesteps transform the whole car although i keep hitting them when i get out the car Quote
mattross1313 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 How many bolts did he break? I had hoped to pop round in the afternoon and say hello as Im only around the corner. But got tied up doing my many chores Quote

But got tied up doing my many chores hahah no bolts! but his favorite breaker bar nearly became an accessory when it got stuck Quote
buster Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 Your welcome m8.just remember to get those tyres sizes sorted asap Quote
laidbackluke Posted October 21, 2013 Author Posted October 21, 2013 Another quick update, bought a new head unit yesterday, and thanks to Buster had it fitted! really happy with it, and i finally have digital radio! turns out Buster had his work cut out for him with the old one.....wires galore!!! but as per usual he came out victorious! Also went to town with a rattle can and re-sprayed my handles, strut bar and badges a nice matte black Quote

Pete87 Posted November 24, 2013 Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) Looks so much better than when you bought it, I'm loving the two tone it works really well. You need to take the rear wiper off aswell. Edited November 24, 2013 by Pete87 Quote
laidbackluke Posted November 25, 2013 Author Posted November 25, 2013 cheers for the comments guys! next thing on the to-do list is the V2 Bumper Quote
