Fair comment, i like it :p . Hopefully find some coilovers soon winkwink anyone looking at this if you got some and can post pm me .
 
Looks good wheels work quite well apart from number plates front doesn't work atall and is the rear in the centre ? (Could just be camera angle)
 
So pic above are the updates. New parts - Rear vzr lights (thx to Chunky), 2 slat grill and fog blanks (thx to Rick), 2.5" Exhaust system and coilovers (thx to Mig), D1 deep blue wheel nuts, Laguna splitter, boss kit and blue deep dish steering wheel, new front tyres, new ramair induction, orange heat paint for cam cover with blue silcone dress up kit and blue oil cap,When the splitter is fitted plans are to drop the coilys all the way , Full professional mop and polish, ocd clean engine bay and rear arches reapair and resprated. All gunna be perfect for Japfest which i cannot wait for tickets on the way.
 
By front not working I think I am moving left or right or putting normal back on front. And regarding rear I am quite ocd but what u think.DSC_0274.JPGSAM_3141.jpg

Like it! Wheels work well. Not feeling the interior so much, but think that's because of the seat fabric clashing. Get them blackened and could be on to something but a stock black dash is always safe. Kudos on the wheels though taking the risk... it worked imo.

This is coming on nicely, good progress. Looking forward to seeing this slammed. What short shift are you using?
 
Thanks all the comments love that people like the wheels. Will play around with the front plate today, side mount or just standerd. :))
 
Nice new head not bad for novice :)
Also got blue oil cap same as wheel nuts.
Splitter is here so fit that tomorrow :)
Now coilovers were to start. Cleaned them for hours only to find out they won't fit :( well they will if I put standerd rims back on. So going.to buy new 60mm spring instead of 40mm atm. Hopefully with the splitter should make the front look.alot lower

Good luck getting 60mm springs afaik they were never made for the N15, whats the issue with the coilovers then? Why wont they fit?

Not good luck, give up. 40mm is the max, if not 45mm but certainly no more.
 
Why not adjust the coilovers?

Raise them slightly so that the wheels are not rubbing the arches.
