Haha, in Brisbane's sub-tropical climate, an air-con is pretty essential. Especially when it's pouring down with rain and still as humid as hell. The windows fog up so badly that we've had to keep a rag in the glovebox to wipe them down with.

It's the little things that excite me...
On that note, I see why drifters get rid of air-cons. That shit is heavy.

Haha oh I see your point yeah I probably would get excited to haha it is kinda annoying ragging down my windscreen, if you told me you could of had mine lol

I think just get some nice black seat covers instead of s15 seats :P

[villain]

Covers might not actually be a bad idea for the short term while i save up for seats.
I should get some seat covers with the GTR emblem.

This build's not getting much love on the forums

Dude, this is awesome - proper DIY. I'm sure there are plenty of people who read but can't be bothered to post. This is just to let you know that I'll be following your build and that I find it MAAAD!

People like myself

Ive been enjoying this thread for a while... going to be doing some respraying myself eventually.....

Here's why i spent 3 hours today in a car:



Maaaad. Drift teks.
Much better offset, except now i have to flare the guards, which i'm okay with.

At first i hated the white but now that it's on the car, it looks alright. Painting the wheels is now not so much of a priority.

Those rims are the sex!

[villain]

Just a few more clearer pics.
I'm so happy with these rims. It's completely changed the stance of the car and made me fall back in love with this thing.
And i'm now loving the white too.

[theFU]

blue + white= great combination.
the wheels themselves are maaad! what sizes are they / what tyres?

[villain]

Cheers, they're 17x9 +10 front and 17x9.5 +15 back with 215/45 tyres all around.

[effortz]

awesome stuff man, I'm getting mine in a couple of months, have the same idea for the rims great stuff!

[driftyalater]

the poke drooooooooool

i've always been a sucker for poke and white rims

[villain]

I wish the cops shared the same admiration for the poke. But nope. Danger to pedestrians.
I'm planning to get these guards flared pretty soon. I'd do a DIY job with them but i just don't really feel confident enough and now that i actually like the look of the car, i don't want to go and mess it up.
So yeah, that will be the next update, whenever it may be.
