mattross1313 Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) First mod done over the weekend, and only took about 2 minutes which was a bonus. My GTR Start button finally arrived from the US. Very easy mod to install but really improves the look & feel of the cabin.......and adds atleast 30bhp, right?? I prefer the button when driving at night as only the text illuminates, as opposed to the whole button in stock form, which I think is more in keeping with the rest of the interior (IE just the text being illuminated, not the button).

mattross1313 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Share Posted January 6, 2016 Nice zed bro! So much of an upgrade to the 50 isnt't it Thanks dude. Yeah I'm really glad I pushed the boat out as I was almost set on getting a HR. It's a lovely upgrade!! Your latest project is looking sweet dude! Always liked your 350 but your 370 is pretty special now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
370Ad Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I missed this too. I had the pleasure of following Suits around Bedford when I had my old 50 and it was a beautiful sight then and still is now. Congrats on buying a well looked after car!

mattross1313 Posted February 25, 2016 Author Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hopefully get a couple of mods started over the summer - no money at the moment! Well this didn't last long! Got my first few mods in the living room ready to be fitted next weekend. Have made a start on upgrading the bulbs to LEDs - have front sidelights, and rear number plate bulbs so far. Bought from eBay and apparently should be a colour match for Xenons.....time will tell. eBay has also provided me with a grommet to remove the rear washer nossle Buster kindly pointed me in the direction or 4 x25mm wheel spacers from a local chap, which I collected this week. Should be just the ticket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK Humpy doesn't have a caravan, so I would have more of a chance of catching up to him. If there was a caravan then I wouldn't have the speed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattross1313 Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Bit slow on the update side here lately. But I am slowly stock piling / ordering parts up ready for show season. Either pending delivery, or at sat home in the living room I have the below ready for fitting. Hopefully I can get this bundle fitted in time for Japfest - COB LED side lights, and number plate bulbs Chrome Z badges - front and back Rear washer nozzle delete 4 x 25mm wheel spacers Eibach lowering springs Most recent mod, no pics though, is the facelift Z Shed Sticker Quick pic below from the weekend. I went out with the GoPro to capture some exhaust noises as I am toying with an upgrade. Still working on the video, but got this pic at the same time. Looks so good in the sun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattross1313 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Japfest prep got underway last night! A friend helped me out (well, he did most of it, I watched) with fitting my lowering springs and spacers. Went for Eibach lowering springs (25mm) all round, and 25mm spacers all round. Car looked low enough when we dropped it down off the axle stands, now after 30 miles it has settled even lower Looks awesome, but I am already questioning how long the front chin spoiler will last! it catches on EVERYTHING Quick pics on the way to work today, will get better ones once she is clean 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattross1313 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Also had a quarter window sticker made up as it amused me greatly* *You may not find this amusing if you have been living under a rock this past few weeks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gstraw Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 car looks great! as discussed, the parts scraping will be the plastic strip in front of both of the wheels. you can unscrew these quite easily. next instead of removing the chin spoiler, i just sanded it down at the high spots. it ends up sanding itself down anyways when you rub lol! on another note do you have high flow cats or just stock cats? any drone with your exhaust? i have same exhaust with HFC and I'm getting a lot of drone. might be the HFC though so gonna go back to stock cats and see how it sounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate Yeah i read somewhere about the wind deflectors infront of the wheels catching on things, might shave them down a little to reduce the scraping. Smoothing the high spots off the splitter is a good shout too. on another note do you have high flow cats or just stock cats? any drone with your exhaust? i have same exhaust with HFC and I'm getting a lot of drone. might be the HFC though so gonna go back to stock cats and see how it sounds Nope, I'm on stock cats and Ark CBE. On a run there is no drove, it is generally a good volume. I find it loud on cold start up I think due to the pre-cat warm up or whatever. Also loud when you give it a boot full. I'm trying to get some videos sorted at some point so will drop you a link when I get around to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
