looks really good mate

is that intercooler to the right tho ?

Yeah says above the pic that its not centre, once id taken off the bumper found that its had a front end bump at some point and the slam panel is  bent over on the lefthand side very slightly so not everything fits in square, not that fussed though tbh as at time just wanted it together haha!!

Intercoolers not enter  :undecided:

As above, does say that above the pic  :smiley:

small update for today. Needed a new radiator, was pishing out and had left it to long.

So got stuck in.



Found a rubbed hose so replaced that and adjusted so wouldnt rub again


Was annoying me that my intercooler wasnt centre because the slam pannel was bent, needed a bashing with a hammer and got it sorted and centred. Also painted it black, looks alot less noticable and better too imo. Goes well with sleeper look too.



Then got some side vents from scrappy, finnishes off front quite well.



Also treated it to some new bosch platinum plugs and cleaned the bay.  :-P

Test fitted some rear spacers today. I know i need 3mm fronts so thats sorted.

Need opinions on the rears before i go splash out on some hubcentric ones. Want the wheels to sit near flush with the arch.

These are 10mm

Before on NSR




After with 10mm spacer at OSR




Sorry for poor pics, spacers were borrowed and was in a rush. 10mm okay? Or go for a 15mm?

10mm seemed pritty flush, wheels arnt my strongpoint so any input is appreciated  :smiley:
