Email back from Charge Speed, looking at $240 (delivered) unpainted for S1 eyelids, :D Might be able to get them slightly cheaper with a group buy through the wholesaler.

Dolphin was about the same price from memory.

Glad I was sitting down when I read that!

Defintely going to get some made cheaper locally - going to send an email off to Bodyform and see if I can get a batch done. :)

That sounds like a much better idea. Let me know how you go.

PM 'Xmetal' when you get a chance and express your interest in getting S1 eyelids.

All the eyelids came with 4 pieces of double sided tape for instillation. :)

Matt i'm thinking we should do a group buy on the Abflug eyelids for S1's - they look pretty neat and they're not over the top. :)

Put my name on the list once we've got an idea on cost. :) ohh and start a new thread. :)

Bodyform didn't get back to me about making eyelids locally so i'd say we're pretty much out of luck there. :thumbsup:

Looks like you might be onto something there Ian.

They even do them painted! :D Still not as cheap as the other S2, but 'Abflug' S1, approx $240 delivered and painted, hopefully $220 if we can get over 5 people.

Failing that i've found a set by Takeros for S1's that come in Carbon Fibre:

12,600yen for the 'eye liner'

Front grill looks nice too. *hint* :P

Hey guys, just got my eyelids and new grille from JinMan yesterday. Looks pretty top notch IMO - paint matches perfectly and fitted like a glove.

And I'd just thought I'd add these lil' guys I saw in my backyard too =P.

Looks the goods. Glad they fitted no problem. :P

Hey there Ian, I've tried to take closer pics, but any closer and the camera goes out of focus =\ Anyhow the double sided tape that's supplied with the eyelids is 1mm thick on the dot. In my opinion it lucks really snug; and I couldn't be happier with it =)

nope, this momo wheel. came on most S2 manuals with factory dayz option. flares were also an option on dayz models

Would need a boos kit and then it wouldn't be a problem.

The momo wheel is ADR approved, but because your car came with an airbag for driver, any wheel you put on there must have an airbag.

that's a wheel for an auto (tiptronic buttons), didn't know they made them...... this is what i'm after but slightly better condition/price. i've seen them go pretty cheap before but never had the money at the time.

momo wheel

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
