      Finally got my Gartmair's Fitted with tyres (only the 9.5s, yet to get rubber for the 10.5s)
      To be honest I think they look pretty shit...


      So found this and I'm going to sandblast faces and get them powdercoated silver

        So haven't really posted much here in a while, I'll update my parts list.

        Anyways, went to an all day drift day in December, had fun but after much thinking (and a few beers) I decided that i'm a little bitch and I don't really want to wreck this car.

        So I decided I wanted to start doing time attack/track days instead, yeah it's more expensive and probably just as likely to crash, but I think i'd enjoy that a little more.

        So, things I did.

        Got a DMAX 3" Straight pipe. Cracked my dump pipe in the process so found a tomei titanium front and 999 automotive dump. Made 230kw At the wheels, think it's time for a new turbo/cams


        Got some new wheels



        Rub-a-dub-dub


        And my lovely Nardi and Nismo horn button in



        Scored a genuine S15 aero bar for $400 (swapped for defi's), got offered $1200 the same day. Didn't know how sought after they were


        Did some wiring and stuff in the air, also DMAX 40mm+ Front guards


        Went to Melbourne Formula 1, only had my film Canon AE-1 Program, this is my favorite pic!


        Back to the car, pulled out the camber and lifted it a little (because track life), thought I needed overs...


        Got a delivery at work! Wisesquare 50mm+ Rear guards



        Going to get them moulded in, I'm not a fan of the "rivet it m8 she'll be mint" look. Another s15 in QLD had the same guards moulded and they look so good!


        Also ordered an Origin Type 2 Carbon bonnet, 9 weeks in to their "12 week gaurentee" on delivery, still not sure if it's left Japan LOL

        This is it all packed up on the trailer... Just cus..


        Anyways so it's a few weeks till paint is done, will post photos of guards if they get sent through to me. Going to lower it a little once I get it back and I get tyres sorted. Thinking of going 285/35/18 on the 18x10 and 265/35/18 on the 18x9. Hopefully it'll look good when painted.

        Paint is going to be a dark black/copper colour. Anyways thanks for reading, will update as much as I can.

          Bit of an update. Panel work is finally on a roll! Passanger (left hand side) guard has been pulled from previous damage, and the guards have been cut and bashed up! Should look good with the Widebody guards on!

              Im not surprised that someone offered you $1200 for it. Spec R aero is rare as fuck.

              Now if only these were legal in the US

                      They look like Cosmis Racing MRII's but I could be wrong

                          I thought that, but these are much cleaner. No embossed writing on them.

                            Similar. Wouldn't run CC03s, they look too... Rice...

                            I like the Weds, got the front pair off a mate and loved how light/cool they were. They looked way better before I had them powder coated (was a bronze silver)
