dajw Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 Its one big love-in this! :-/ The Mrs and I sat in the R35 and knew it wasn't going to be today. Either we have grown or the space inside has shrunk or possibly my memory isn't what it used to be we shall think of a new plan (probably sell the golf cab in the spring and find a more practical family car, thereby keeping Reggie!)

sipar69 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) I love the GTR but I doubt I'll ever buy one because I personally think they're too big. I can see me getting into all sorts of parking related scrapes etc in one of them. Edited February 16, 2015 by sipar69 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You soon get used to a big car trust me Much as I admit I miss driving a small sports car, driving a big fast barge is just as much fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajw Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Random thought alert: What do you folks think of Recaro Pole Position FIA bucket seats? Any experience? Linky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 They're okay, I found them a little unsupportive compared with similar priced competitors. Like everything Recaro though, they're very well made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sipar69 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Indeed. The Nismo comes with a reversing camera. I have been thinking about adding sensors too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajw Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 Taras at R-T performance has suggested making the diffuser area dark. I've nicked an image off the internets and done some photoshoppery. Think it looks quite good.. What do you think? I then got carried away and masked off the spoiler. Probably too much "dirty sanchez' going on there. The front though — I'm in two minds about. Quite like the way a colour change makes it less fang-y. All images stolen from the web.

nissanman312 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I think all that looks awesome wish I'd gone for a colour that contrasting colours stood out on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajw Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 Well I've asked Taras to do the diffuser as he's spraying up the rear bumper anyway. I've asked him for a quote on the front. Won't do the wing tho. I like it "subtly awesome". Passed a lovely black '60 plate 370z on the M4 this morning, I'd forgotten how damned good they look from the rear 3/4 view.
