This is basicly how i got it so should be a good base for the mods i have planned, currently running 253.8bhp at the wheels and has a few uprated parts as seen in my signature at the bottom of my posts?

The first thing i did when i got the car was to rip out the old headunit and replace it with a double din DVD player, the old headunit was quite interesting? due to the person that had wired it into the car, at night when you turned the headlights on the stereo would go off so had to listen to the engine instead in the darker hours, LOL
Not the best of pic's but gives you the idea also shows the boost gauge that i replaced..

Then i went on to do the rear Skyline Badge panel on the rear, had seen this mod a few years ago at some of the shows i'd been to so thought i'd have a go and do it myself? these usually sell on ebay for around £130 and doing it myself cost my £3 so not a lot to sort it out?
How it looked before..

And how it looks now after i've had a play with it,
sanded and taped up the skyline lettering.

Then with the rear panel fitted back on the car,

Then it was the time to get the calipers painted, very easy job and doesnt take me long to do, Went for a nice red on this one, was tempted to go for a yellow but think the red breaks up all the black of the car and they do stand out quite a bit?
