    Well I guess we know why its got such low km. If I had rims like that I wouldn't want to take it out in public either.

    The good news though is the best place to not have to see the chromies is inside the car :P

    Go buy some Black Plasti Dip and spray those MOFO's in the mean time... Very depressing.

    Haha, I remember the owner being like, these were from the previous owner >>

    I was thinking, yeah I think thats why its taken 2 months for someone to come have a look, I knew of the potential...

    Will post up progress photos once the rims are updated

    Spent a few bonding hours for the first wash. My god that Velocity Red in the sunlight is freaking amazing. I honestly could not wait any longer to change these eye sores. 4 for $10 at supercheap. Now it is tolerable. The V is feeling a bit neglected in the background...

    Also sprayed the calipers a nice subtle gloss black also, Didnt get a close up however. Still pretty like... ugh about the wheel gap. Soon!

    More pics of the Nissan. I'm a real fan. Why did you move on? 4 doors? AWD?

    Yeah, reason was just that I wanted something different, turbo and awd, as much as i love the skyline it was just frustrating on several occasions when i needed to take people places, all my mates have turbo cars and i just felt the need to jump into the realms of turbo. Even though the skyline was pumping a healthy 180rwkw and 340nm, tuned, zorst, intake, that was essentially the most i could push without building the motor or bolting on some FI.

    Plus, every time I drive the MPS, just puts a smile on my face.

    Nice car mate. Interesting to know about the limits to pwr. Bet it at least sounded the goods.

    Not that great with child seats then?

    Today was a hectic day trying to get the coilovers sorted and the ride height perfect. I am happy to finally reveal the end product.

    Cannot begin to describe how please I am with it. Some people dont like it (hellapokeflush business), but it suits the car so well and the handling is incredible. The new tires, new suspension. Without ridiculously laying the car out, keep practicality in mind. So happy.
