Enough suspense
Took me just over 5 hours to get back from Newcastle, 315 miles & used 1 & 1/2 tanks of petrol - around £100 so far. Car performed perfectley all the way back & its pretty much immaculate. It did have some paint work done to it in Japan last year though, so thats probably why it looks so fresh.
Only small issues are - the MFD picked up a couple of white lines whilst sat in the docks in Japan, seems quite a common fault though from reading the GTROC & a couple of the UK cars I saw also had the lines and the gear knob has a small bit of wear on it but thats getting replaced anyway Also the headunit was removed by the previous owner before it went to auction in Japan - luckily I have one sat here thats gonna go in when I get a chance.
Its a lot quicker than my Z was, the sensation when accelerating out of a bend in 2nd or 3rd gears is just incredible Exhaust sounds great, if not a little bit quiet for my taste - Its staying though because a) it looks stunning & It sounds great without being over the top loud like my Z was
Mods will start next week, I'm off on holiday tomorrow for a week so the car is now tucked up ready for when I return. So far I have Blitz downpipes, Apexi Filters, HKS Boost controller, HKS Fcon gold & a modified twin turbo pipe to fit May order some spacers for the wheels or I may just wait until I can afford the Volks that I want. Keeping the seats though, I prefer them to the Brides I was gonna get.
Mods currently on the car are an Apexi titanium exhaust & white Nismo clocks - I also had Jurgen refurbish the wheels in gloss black for me. It also has a Nismo oil cap (for sale soon ) & a nismo fuel filler cap which looks great - no idea if its genuine or not but its a nice touch
