Hey Everyone.
Thought it was time I posted up a topic for my car. Haven't really updated anything since my first introductory thread (see HERE for my introduction post which explains how and why I got the car etc) So it's a 1989 Nissan Skyline GTE, with a manual and RB25DE conversion, along with 5-stud brakes, R200 diff etc. It was purchased in October 2005. A minor thing we did when we first got it was painted and cleaned up the brake calipers. Before ![]() After ![]() We also got it dyno'd, 115rwkw, pretty reasonable I think. ![]() Here is the progress of the Clarion Headunit and Front speakers. These were laying round from my sister's old Daihatsu Applause. No audio came with the car when purchased. Before ![]() Previous owner must have made these mounts, personally don't like them. Trying to source stock covers at the moment. ![]() After ![]() ![]() The rim centre's weren't in excellent condition so we decided to get them sandblasted and powdercoated in black. Also got the plates MI11NT, I don't like them anymore so when rego comes up I'm going to get RB25NA I think. ![]() ![]() And then we did suspension, we put new Polyurethane bushes in the front caster arms and front upper arms, and a few months after that got TEIN super-street coilovers. They're actually on their lowest setting, but I think it's great. ![]() Sits nice. ![]() Cat up to no good. ![]() Another one of the cat ![]() And then we got some better speakers for the front + tweeters (Pioneer) and moved the Clarions to the rear. ![]() Not a great pic of the speakers but meh. ![]() Not much happened for a while, but recently I got a new headunit. No pics of that installed. ![]() Also got a Genuine Nismo Steering Wheel and boss kit. I love the old style Nismo Logo. ![]() And 2 days ago I got a Genuine Nismo Aluminium Chrome gearknob, however it isn't the type you can buy now, it's a discontinued part and has the old style logo engraved in it. Pics to come. ![]() That's about all the progress on my car I guess. My plans now are to get
Updates to come hopefully ^.^ -Jimmy. |
