Looks awesome Hafid!  Z-Tune stuff definitely makes it look nice and aggressive.

My Opa was born in Den Haag and my Oma was from Breda.  I do like the Netherlands once you get used to fog and mushy ground!

Look forward to seeing your car come together!

@Kinkstaah The bodykit is coming along very nicely! The guy working on it definitely determines the end result, so I am very happy I brought it to a professional. He got the gaps and fitment just right. The front gap is being fiberglassed before going of to the filler booth to get everything smooth and even nicer!

Also managed to get my hands on a nice set of a Brembo brake kit from a 350Z! So the GTST brakes will be taken off again.

I had the CD009 box fitted, but noticed a grind while going into 3rd gear. Hoped it would wear off as the box was sitting on the shelf for a few years. But I also managed to source another CD009 gearbox so I am thinking of exchanging the box again while I get the first CD checked over.

Anyone advise on how to properly diagnose a gearbox? Clutch kit (PMC motorsport kit) feels very heavy to, so might getting everything inspected!

She came back from the bodyshop, very happy with the results! She's on JR12 wheels, powdercoated in bronze satingloss. Couldnt put the front Z tune lip because of the height, might have to tweak the coilovers a bit because it did look good on there!

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
