Cheers dude. Few thats a bit of a relief though, thought that the rear bumper was different but couldnt tell from the shadows.

It is so bloody frustrating to wait for a car, don't know how you regular importers do this all the time. I guess it will pay off in the end though

[silver gts-t]

yeh the bumper fine, its like mine, for some reason its painted and for the last 5cm at the bottom its black

:confused:

maybe there was a paint sortage

[Baz]

Yeah it looks a bit weird. Depends on how it looks I may get it repainted. Does it look ok in your opinon or would it look better being the same color as the rest of the car?

DAMNIT! why does everybody else have nice plenum and mine is missing paint allover! arrrrr

yeh it looks beter all painted,

but i respreying the whole bar for it

[sammus]

here's my car which has just been complied and now is in the stage of road worthy... then there's rego. all equals more waiting

[Remix-]

Another month and hopefully my GTR arrives... GT2510's waiting at home for it

[Beer Baron]

looks cool mate. As a side note, does anyone know what the crossed out number plate means? I'd always thought it meant that the car had been defected (cause I'd seen it on some heavily modified cars in Japan).

Also, make sure you get underneath it straight away as the pics of the car sitting in snow aren't a good sign rust wise...

Thanks for the comments champ

Whoa, I've just recieved word that it's already on a boat!!

I was wondering what the crossed out numberplate signified also. I'll be underneth it as soon as it's in my driveway.

[mr_rbman]

You seem strangly proud of your P-plate

LW.

I put these wheels on my skyline too! You gotta love 'em

[Mr R32 M-Spec]

I'm thinking about cleaning it up myself and just buying the heatproof paint I have seen at autobarn and respraying the plenum myself

[OohArrGTR]

want to mine too mark?? mine looks the same as yours.. annoys me when i see all these nice black engine bays..

[NZM.031]

hey guys, lots of nice looking GTRs, makes me even keener to get mine.

OohArrGTR, ive seen you around newi, looks fat. u dont need to use heatproof paint on plenums and what not, i used it on my exhaust manifold and thats it, for everything else i use regular acrylic paint in a pressure pack can. cam covers, other bits, brake calipers, brake discs. but why not polish it up?? ive done my inlet manifold, looks sweet.

[OohArrGTR]

but what sort of prices wouldi be looking at to get that and the cam cover polished i bet itll be a shitload!

[NZM.031]

well, you could take it all off and get it polished up, or you could take it off and buy the equipment and do it yourself, or you could take it off and rub it back with wet and dry, goin down in grit, or you could do what i did and leave it on the car and sand it back and getting lookin really smick in the areas ppl see. it takes a while, but i think on an rb26 getting the paint off would be the real trick, then you have to get the casting marks out of it. took me a few days, im still not quite finished.

cheers
