Nissan SSS

This weekend Nissan was in a local car show, X-treme car show. My friends wanted me to bring Nissan to their stand. I had no problem with it.. I think I was the only guy, who didn`t even wash the car, Nissan has so good patina on it!





After the show, I took few quick fotos.

Subaru quick pics..

Finally had time to take few quick pics with frontlip setup.

Frontlip and springs.

Today I installed stiffer rear springs and sti frontlip.

With new wheels (10,5") the tire was scraping too often, I didn't want to pull the fenders any more, so I decide to make the rear end more stiffer.
The old springs was 8kg/cm and new ones 10kg/cm. Problem solved.

Then I installed the frontlip, which was totalled few years ago. I glued it together and put it to its place.
Had a little problem when I came home.. Need to do something to my frontyard.

New wheel`s on!!

After waiting for 4 months, today I got new wheels to Subaru.

Few years ago I bought the RPF`s, the NT-03 was the second choice.. Then I had`t balls to take over 10`s. Since that I´ve been wondering can I fit 10,5" wide wheels on it. Today was the day to make it happen!

This is test fitting pic. Haven`t done the aligment yet.

Enkei NT-03+M 18x10,5" et 30 / Hankook V12 Ventus 245/35

It wont scrape any more..

- Officer, why did you pull me over?
- Because your fender is missing..?
- Did you found it? Why do you think it's missing?
- It's not on your car.
- Oh, you mean THAT fender. My wheel scraped it a little bit. I took it off..
- WHAT????
- It wont scrape any more..

Nissan suspension work

Finally Nissan got a new suspension setup..just test fitted..

We used Nissan 350Z (K-Sport) coilovers. It just need minor modification to the K-Sport fixing points. Aluminium plates and welder up front and lathe an lasercutting on rear.

I will take better pics for those susp. parts lately.

Car is (again) jacked up right now and I´m ripping all off (again). Everything´s going to have sandplast and powdercoating. Will also use new ball joint, tie rod end, all rubber parts, bushings.. everything is going to be fixed.


Front coilover:
Front installed:
 Rear hub with shock adapter:
 Rear installed:
Test drive pic. There was 6cm space under the car. I still can lower the front end about 3cm and rear end 8,5cm. With a different tyre size also will lower the car about 1,5cm. (I will use 195/45 on 15x9")

Project beginzzz....

Firstly, sorry for no posting for a loooooong time. (I`ve been busy building my house and garage, and of course my 2 and half year old girl take some playtime too :)

Ok. Finally got the garage to that point, that I could take the Nissan inside. First I jacked it up and measured the shocks to make the new ones from a Nissan 350Z coilovers. I´m making this static right now, but I´ve a idea to have it bagged some day..

Original front:

 Upper and lower shockmounts copied to paper:
