Just got my car back from getting the new kit fitted, what do you guys think...I'm not sure if the silver is a good match or not? I thought the airvents above the headlights was an awesome special touch!

I'm just so happy with the way the guards blended in, such a smooth finish, hats off to the workshop that fitted it!!!

LOL

that looks great Dan

I also love the way that you have the bonnet a little raised at the front instead of the back like the hardcore ricers do.

Also the way it lets air flow straight through under the headlights so you can get more cool air into the engine bay .... way cool, coz lets face it, removing a headlight is just ghey!

Top job by whoever fitted it. please PM me their name and address so i cn get mine done like that too.

Thats dodgy as man. They forgot to refit the number plate. Id take it back, you might get a ticket for that. You paid them to take it off, surely you would have paid them to put it back on. Make them earn their money. Other than that top job hey.

Im with everyone else on the bonnet. Thats tops. Good airflow, makes it look meaner!

But get that number plate sorted :yes:

But you have to let it out again when all that nice cool air gets hot? :yes: that's why the japs do it reverse bonnet.

Thanks for all the supporting comments guys! I'm hoping to sort the problem with the hot air by fitting a GTR rear bar, from what I hear it also features similar vents which will whisk the air straight out of the guards and act much like a jet pushing me even faster!!!

hahah I thought the fact it's not even screwed on was more of an issue here ;) I was bored when I got home the other day and thought..."what if?" And seeing as the GTR bumper was propped up in the corner looking lonely I thought I'd give her a go :D

Don't panic guys it's not really on the car!!!! It's actually going to be for sale in a week or two once I've finished 'playing' with it.

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
