some pictures from this weekend, some from the event and some from home on the car.

this is the last picture before it will be walshed and driven away to Pierre at Phatdesing.se for graphics... crazy manga fellow is all i say for now took me some time to put on the new front discs, glad i did that, hence it looks SO muck better then the old ones.... 30mm spacers IS huge when you look at it.... and yes it is dirty and that will be cleaned away...

now are all the guages plugged in... *puh* but with low batteri and an old camera this is the result så nu är alla mätarna inkopplade... all gauges are lightned even the voltmeter in the center of the steeringwheel

things are happening to the car all the time... got the last leather today... here's the result... the guages and the monitor isn't wired yet so thats why they are black....

notices foru things on the trunk today.... WTF!!!! then i realised that i yesterday drilled holes for the carbonfiber spoiler, the brackets are painted and will be mounted tomorrow (i think) another thing that happened in the coupe. a new hatch where the indash screen will be, it will be covered in the same beige leather as the rest of the interior. i have got quite some things to do before the weekend, this weekend the car will be at an event hece The Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift has premiere here in Sweden. there will be several heavely modefied cars and also mine the car will be there on friday morning, and on thursday afternoon the dekore will be made... so there are quite a lot to do....

it's a chinees made seat that the company put their logo on

got home the gauges today. looks REALLY nice =) not the best to take photos so this will do for now.

that one i know about, but i would rather buy directly from the buyer to save money and get more things for the same amount =)

anyone that has bought something from yahoo japan, i tried to email the seller in bouth english and japanese (translated via babelfish ) but no response in anything i found the prices are REALLY nice i think, just sad that i can't buy from there as i buy from ebay.....

a few days since the last update, haven't had that much time doing anything on the car hence my work takes quite some time.... and that i have bought my selves a honda civic hatchback -92 that i have started to look nicer... back to my datsun. i got the gauges that i wanted to change the colour on today. to fit the theme with the car i changed the colour to green =) there will be 4 of thoose in the car. volt, oilpreassure, oiltemp and watertemp. the volt meter will go where the horn button is in my aftermarket steeringwheel

a picture for the show i was at, that was taken by some of the visitors.

i still haven't done any new headlights, but i've started to mold in my skyline R33 taillights to the original taillight.

DavyZ it wasn't that hard, i used an electrical saw taht cut away the repeaters and backlinglight then had to cut som other plastic parts away to make it fit the original lightcover. hope this will be a nice change in the rear part of the car. more pictures and text will come when i have done something with them.

a small update. started to modify my Skyline R33 taillights today. after some cutting does it starts to look like this.

a picture taken on the show, unfortenually so was it very dusty there hence we was parked on a grawel covered parkingplace outside Realcar.se. the exterior and interor got wery dirty even though i walshed and cleaned and pollished the car when i arrived there before the public was allowed in. the wirening to the subwoofer is just temporary and it will be fixes with new wires and how it is placed. quite cool with the 15" audiobahn subwoofer, attracts quite alot of attension =)

was at my first carshow today... it was a styling company here in sweden that was the host. they also sold defect products and products that didn't have room in their storage. so i found a carbonfiber spoiler that the clearcoat was scratched on and was cracked at some spots... no problem i thought and bought it at a quite nice price. i will just sand it down and put some new clearcoat on it and it will be as good as new =) perhaps i even paint it partly in the cars colour and perhaps make a Z in the end of the spoiler, could be nice. so to the pictures.

yes it's aluminium. got the soundsystem working, OH MY GOD how the subwoofer sounds!!! IT'S AMAZING!!!!

got the new speakers and amps yesterday, today i will install them. i will most likely rebuild the boot floor to make a nicer installation for the new aps. the coverplate on the amps (the metall plates) will most likely be replaces with material (don't know the english word for it) someone that knows the english work and can tell me that? anyway i will cut this in the same shape a the original plate and paint in in the cars colour, then will i sand the top of it so the highest spots get back to being metall finnish. think that might look nice. pictures will come during the day.

time for a new update. i have to present my new sponsor (http://www.n-core.se) they are a audioretailer, that has among many brands Phoenix Gold. this is what they will sponsor me with, and wirening. front speakers RSD6.5CS Amps OctaneR8.0:1 samt OctaneR5.0:4 the will later on (when i got the time to continue modding the interor) give me 4" coax and a new 15" sub or 2 15" subs.

thanks! i think that my next nissan/datsun project will be a nissan skyline R33 rb25det 4-door hopefully will i have the money after the summer so i can do some work during the winter... but for now i am pleased with my datsun. i might have got a new sponsor on the car, will discuss the details with the sponsor this week. the sponsorship is about audio stuff: new speakers, amps, wirening and if i want a new subwoofer (but then i have to modify my subwoofer box) more details when the deal is finnished.

just bought me a set of new wheel valve caps.. hope it will look nice

2 pictures of the car with the new wheels mounted, in the rain... the car got a bit higher, but now doesn't it hits the speedbumps anymore =)

the 30mm spacers arrived today, so now is the rims mounted. more pictures will come when i charged the camera and walshed the car.

Sparky i bought them on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8064191481&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1
