Sorry david should have been clearer. We fitted the old kit as one unit to prove the hub etc was the same. In the picture you can see the 2011 Caliper swung out of the way.

Henry 145 · 18th February 2011, 07:00 PM

Glad exhaust from milltek fits...need to order one please

EvolutionVI · 18th February 2011, 07:08 PM

Awesome work from Litchfield

w8pmc · 18th February 2011, 07:10 PM

Tis indeed awesome work. So looking fwd to reading the results.

Had a 6k service at Litchfield yesterday for my Gun Metal MY10, saw the MY11 x 2, Blue and Black in the workshop, the blue Litchfield car on the ramp being dismantled, i was a bit sceptical, but after seeing them in the flesh........very very nice, damn!

Blue looks great in those photos

And great work from Litchfields. You need to open a Scottish branch

Amazing level of detail.

Agreed!

Zed Ed · 21st February 2011, 03:24 PM

so does the rear diffuser fit?

Litchfield · 21st February 2011, 04:27 PM

sorry the mating points to the new rear diffuser are different. It looks like you would need this as well to install it onto a 09/10 models.

Lots of new photos and information to post up soon

Zed Ed · 21st February 2011, 04:32 PM

So the whole lower rear bumper assembly is reqd?

Have been looking at the 2012 parts on Courtesy.

Litchfield · 21st February 2011, 04:47 PM

yeap, You will need at least the lower section of the rear bumper.

There is also a new breather from the Fuel filler neck. I say new because I have not noticed it on the MY10 models before.

David.Yu · 21st February 2011, 06:14 PM

New breather probably addresses filling issues.
They really have thought of everything!

Well nearly everything. I can't believe there isn't room on either the instrument binnacle or massive MFD for a permanent outside temp gauge!
How many cars don't have that?

Yeah one thing I miss.....prefer to have speed up rather than the temp....cant think of any other decent modern car now that does not perm display outside temp.

Wishful thinking I fear

Great work from Litchfields, taking it apart is like unwrapping a massive christmas present :thumbsupsmilie:

Litchfield · 21st February 2011, 07:52 PM

The attention to detail is stunning! Clearly, like the first car, this is a labour of love for the Nissan engineers. In fact what they haven't changed has been just as interesting. *I'll try and put up some info about the engine and gearbox tomorrow
