Zedd Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 How did you find attaching the heat sheild to the snorkel? Looking good 1 Quote
nissanjuke Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Snap same colour as me ,and I also got the garmin fitted in glove box,good luck now you have the z bug. 1 Quote
martybhoy Posted January 26, 2015 Author Posted January 26, 2015 How did you find attaching the heat sheild to the snorkel? Looking good It is an extremely tight space and fit for that part. You are given two screws to attach the snorkel to the heat shield. Instead of having them exposed, I used a cable tie and made sure it was tight on keeping them together. Hope that helps ....never underestimate a cable tie! 1 Quote
Zedd Posted January 26, 2015 Posted January 26, 2015 Yeah, I have that pop charger as well, only managed to get one screw in haha had to use my fingers! But it seems to be holding up so far! 1 Quote
martybhoy Posted April 11, 2015 Author Posted April 11, 2015 No mods this time but a detailing session using my new kestral das6 polisher. For those interested. I used meguiars ultimate compound on a cutting pad then autoglym hd wax. My first attempt so I've seen a couple spots I could've done better but very happy with the results. Made the ultimate sin though no before pics. Quote
hensh65 Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Looks good mate, not sure I would have went for the autoglym wax though 1 Quote
martybhoy Posted April 14, 2015 Author Posted April 14, 2015 Cheers mate, I wasn't sure on it myself but I've been impressed on the azure it really gives it almost like a 'layer' of shine and the water repelling has been good so far with just one light coat I'll top up hte wax again in a few weeks for the summer.

martybhoy Posted July 25, 2015 Author Posted July 25, 2015 Next update on bits ordered. Bilstein b6 shocks (on back order so a few weeks till I get them) Tein 15mm drop springs. HR bonnet from Nissan. Goes to body shop in a fortnight. Carbon fibre wing mirror covers. 19" ruff wheels. Plus some decent rubber. Wasso plenum spacer ordered. Awaiting Torqen for a new clutch slave cylinder and braided line. Next possible update after they are all fitted could be a carbon fibre nismo v1 wing. Pics of bits fitted soon. 2 Quote
martybhoy Posted July 26, 2015 Author Posted July 26, 2015 Yeah I was contemplating that for some time haha. Couldn't even think about the 35mm drop version. Quote
martybhoy Posted August 7, 2015 Author Posted August 7, 2015 HR bonnet and zunsport grill fitted. Quote

hensh65 Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 Marty I should have showed you my bank account before you bought your zed it might have saved yours but it looks like you're fecked! Good progress though! 1 Quote
martybhoy Posted August 12, 2015 Author Posted August 12, 2015 The wheels are on. I chose to get them refurbed in gloss black. I took about 10 photos but I don't think any of the photos do them just and really need to be seen in person to see how aggressively they look in the arches with the bigger lip on the rears especially. Anyway here's one letting you lot see them. I think some tein springs are in order for the correct arch fitment. Just wish my bilstein shocks would hurry up and I could get them on. Quote
martybhoy Posted September 14, 2015 Author Posted September 14, 2015 Major bodywork update. Now all the cosmetics are complete. With some better pics than off my iphone. Front to back HR bonnet + zunsport grill + mines lip. Tarmac sports side steps + carbon wing mirror covers JDM rear diffuser Nismo v1 wing from RT-performance A completed side on pic All my bodywork was carried out by RM bodywork and I couldnt be happier. The colour match is identical. I can't praise them high enough for the work. Next mods will be bilstein shocks, clutch slave cylinder + braided line. I was going to go tein springs but with the side steps on the car is just too close to the ground now for my needs, any lower would only rip parts to bits. Anyway enjoy guys! Quote
PPod Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Cars looking great loving that spoiler so with those sidesteps how close to ground? You still on stock suspension from when made. 1 Quote

martybhoy Posted September 14, 2015 Author Posted September 14, 2015 Cars looking great loving that spoiler so with those sidesteps how close to ground? You still on stock suspension from when made. Yeah stock suspension and after the side steps are on it leaves just over 3/3.5 inches id say. It's enough so that I have to take speedbumps etc very carefully. Thanks guys for the comments. 1 Quote
PPod Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 Cheers for the info think I will keep stock too when I get mine on haha. 1 Quote
Payco Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 You have done a great job and credit to you but it needs to be lowered on some Tein S Springs and then it will be spot on. Sits too high on the rims as it is. 1 Quote
martybhoy Posted September 23, 2015 Author Posted September 23, 2015 Update ahead of tomorrow's work. - bilstein suspension all round with new rear top mounts. (Couldn't source front except from Nissan who wanted £150...) -new clutch slave cylinder and braided line from Torqen. -plenum spacer from wasso. -car will also be getting full wheel alignment and balancing to go with new wheels and suspension. Hopefully it'll now drive even better -plus I've just cleaned and oiled my popcharger as I suspect it's taken on some dust from the bodyshop. 1 Quote
