Nice one buddy
Well done mate, cracking job...
Its awesome, almost as quick as my last one, but with no mods as yet! Good engine for sure! Everyone loves a shiny car. Washed, clayed areas, washed, dried, SRP'd, Collinite'd, Glass Polished, Trim Geld'd and AG Extra Gloss Protection'd. Yum. Bonnet actually feels like glass.
But the thing that is really annoying me... Pic 3. The door looks a different colour than the rest of the car, its only from some angles so its obviously the way the paint has been applied (to the car) when it was resprayed/repaired. But its a little complaint compared to the fun of the SR, especially with that 'All smoke' sticker, which is giving people the impression its a slow dog.

The cleaning continued yesterday with the interior as it hasnt been done since September!
Before...
Weapons of choice...
Back after hoovering & cleaning the carpet, Vinyl cleaner and 2 stage leather clean...
New tailor made mats (xmas presant)...
Front all cleaned and new mats in...
Noice...
Dirty elbow patch gone :lol:...
New gearknob (xmas presant)...
Should I?

Thought I'd show you my cut down exhaust system...
Thats what I cut off...
Today I decided to relocate the battery to the boot. Started by having to extend the power cable for the fuse box, original one on the left, new one fitted...
Starter feed moved, there was a conveniently placed clip where the old QG loom used to sit...
Starter and fuse box feed into the junction box...
Couldnt think of any other way of securing the junction box on the back of the suspension turret, so the gaffa tape came out...
A bit more space now. Just need to cut the fuse box bracket off the old battery tray so I can mount the f/b properly...
Battery in boot, used a Micra battery tray as it was smaller, also had a genuine Nissan battery in the garage so used that. Connected up with quick release terminals (thanks Rick!)...
Am going to order a plastic battery box to put over it, will stop anything interferring then.

The boot catch has been broken for a while and after sourcing a brand new genuine Nissan item for £11.18 delivered I fitted it today...
Old vs New...
And I repaired both keyfobs the other day, new cases, buttons and batteries. Work a treat now...
All fitted up, I had to make a bracket too...
Had this fitted for a week now, kinda liking it...
Sorry about the sh1t pics, didnt take the SLR.

the 2nd to bottom picture of post 712 just looks so damn mean. Your car looks absolutely awesome mate. A genuine credit to you and the work that's been put in
The only thing I'm not too keen on is the red in the seats I'd have personally gone for a dark grey like the paintwork but it's all preference.
One of the many car's I'm looking forward to seeing at Japfest but I pity the person parking next to you lol

Cheers for the comments
Rich, nah no need for ventilation. Im 'ard.
I really like this pic too...
Fixed the clutch issue the other day, found a perfect sized spacer for the slave cylinder... A metal dust cap. Clutch is absolutely cock on now. Also removed all the stickers, looks alot cleaner and realigned the front engine mount.

Excellent Liam - the only thing I wasn't too keen on in those pics was the stickers. Now it'll be much better
