My white R

Hi folks just thought id post up some pics of my R, only had it a few weeks and love it, starting to feel a bit slow now but id rather keep the reliability, it came with a few mods on it and intend to add a few extra goodies of my own let me know your thoughts and any advice on some good power mods that wont break anything

Mods:
Toyosports FMIC
Greddy air filter
magnecor ignition leads
groupe A fuel pump (so i was told but no proof)
turbo back mongoose exhaust with silenced decat
Exedy organic clutch

16" oz superlaggera alloys
Front FTO twinpot calipers with grooved discs
GAB adjustable suspension 35mm

Prosport gauges
nismo gearknob

still a bit paranoid about putting my foot down as i broke the clutch after 2 weeks of owning it but all good now after a hectic time getting the box off which i dont fancy doing again for a good while lol








Cheers for looking

Sye

Looks very clean mate.

Those wheels would look good black

Get your foot down lol you've done the gearbox off once, the second time is easier and quicker lol

lol cheers, yeah im considering a colour change on the wheels, was thinkin a bronze sort of colour or black

that is a very clean looking car, im sure i recognise this one as i think i old the guy the toyo sports front mount a couple years back.
did it come from down south at some stage?

Very nice always liked the White R,s as stu said wheels in black would set it off.

yeah bob i picked it up from portsmouth, seems in mint condition apart from some rust on the back arches

Nice car... Im almost sure markturbo off the gtiroc owned this back in 2008

Show us a pic of the nismo gearknob please

Its actually a really nice gearknob, its also a screw on type and doesn't come off in your hand

Very nice! i Like it

All this talk about showing knobs and coming off in your hand sounds to julian clarey to me lol

brothers friend is a learning photographer and was doing a photoshoot of his own car so thought id sneak the r in for a few snaps. not really done anything to the r, added a momo steering wheel but hopefully soon ill be able to get a decent project started soon as things looking good for the future

cars lookin mint mate, and the pics look good

Very nice mate! Looks very clean, But i agree with Stu, the wheels need to be black or anthresite

thanks folks, yeah agree with the black wheels im dying for a laguna splitter aswell

love the R in white shes looking good i know you said about a front splitter but what about a nissan/nismo bumper guard they look pretty cool on the pulsars too and bob has 1 for sale if you were interested i would have bought it myself only it would because of my front mount

I'd prefer the bumper guard over the splitter - and the bumper guard also serves a useful purpose.

Stick with the silver wheels, I think it looks great.

love those pics,really good camera stuff there!

car looks fantastic
splitter or bumpgaurd both look good so just personal choice
agree with anthracite wheels though

thanks all, the car off the road just now, gonna need a few things for mot but added a laguna splitter which looks great, but a quick question, i couldnt get the splitter to fit tightly round the corners of the bumpers, any ideas how you get them fitted perfectly?

its just a case of lining it up so it runs to end of bumper, fix the ends first then work your way toward the middle.
either rivet them on or you can use self tapping screws if you wish

yeah i worked from the centre out, maybe take it off and try again as i just cant get it twisted enough to line up on the corners, totally transforms the car, had a little go with a porsche carera 4s and i think he was stunned when he couldnt pass or even catch me, chuffed, what a machine these little things are

so i aint updated this in a while as ive not really had the funds spare to spend but things are alot better now so time to do some stuff on it, i done the 1 bar loop which was a bit of a nightmare and just got these today so this will be my next mod pretty much brand new with new ferrodo pads. they are huge! will be sending them off to be painted brembo red with brembo logos to replace the aston martin. expensive job but i think it will be worth it once they are done and fitted

Nice one, I actually like them how they are but everyone to their own.

nice kit! hope you'll reach to make some proper parts to bolt on your car. good upgrade.

yeah they do but im a sucker for bright red brakes im a little worried about the size as they are huge 70mm from the face of the pad out so i need to find wheels to clear them
