That pretty much brings us up to date. Not driven it much over the past few months but as the weather improves that will change

Plans for this year?

Spacers
Detail
Bodykit- thinking of Kuruma/inven front, kenstyle sides, chargespeed rear
Im still undecided on the rear spoiler- will see how it looks with the chargespeed bumper
JDM stickers
Engine bay tidy/dress
Adjust the headlights- too busy with LEDs and 4 halos
Replace head unit- already have one, just to fit
Sort that nasty gear ****

What do the letters spell? Good to see a clean G over in the highlands, I love the second picture with the wheel reflection in the water.

Skyline

It looks clean in photos but I have a lot of swirls, will get it polished up when it warms up

Washed the car in 2 degrees last night

You're a braver man than I, how did you keep the water from freezing while you washed it? Inside a garage or...……..

I was on my way to a meet and had a big *** birdshit so had to wash it. Just used a jet wash at a petrol station. Checked there was no ice on the ground before starting, it was fine

Your brembo brakes look alot like akebono brakes with brembo stickers on them. You may want to verify what exactly you have before its time to replace pads etc... etc...

Akebonos from a 370? Will compare them at the next monthly meet

They will be checked before getting new pads but thanks for the heads up

Yea drew the ninja by hand with a circle around it, cut the ninja out. With the shape I couldn’t tape it down properly so there’s some overspray in some areas but I quite like it like that

For the rays I just marked the centre of the circle and taped up stripes

I think the overspray looks perfect tbh, stuff like that can look a little wonky if it's all perfectly lined out.

EDIT: Did you ever find out what was up with the brake calipers and exactly WHAT they were from?

I agree, just giving it some lacquer as we speak

The brakes look like akebonos from a 370z, compared it to a few here. Thanks to @theronz for spotting that
