Unbelievable. Looks really good. Looks like I'll be heading the same way, engine is almost rebuilt, then I will need to sort the body work including the rear window rubbers. I hope it'll look half as good as yours in a few years.

What colour is that? Something from the R34 set?

Clean and "simple", very nice
I ignored your list of parts for fear of jelousy :-)

Thanks for the comments chaps
I was going for the almost stock look
Only people in the know will notice the differences

Oh, I must mention my friends work under the bonnet(Paul mantamac on here)
The re-locator as he is known
Or shall I dare say, "its a direct bolt on application"
Said that a few times over the years
It was never true, well appx 10% of the time

Cheers Paul

alls well that ends well then

very nice indeed, mine should have been like that by now but hey ho.
one question, did you manage to salvage the seals/trims off the rear quarter windows or did they need replacing aswell. cant believe the price for window seals and trims!!!
