Ordered the springs from eBay and the shocks from my work

Popped over to visit Clodo to collect some K11 March nipples and lowering springs. We got chatting about the car and the clutch pedal issue. She kindly adjusted the cable and suggested greasing the springs on the pedal arm. Got home from work today to do it and it's cured the problem (got a...

The clutch was changed about 6 months ago but the pedal is extremely stiff/heavy. While the car was in the garage they noticed the clutch cable is new, with it disconnected the pedal moves freely. So the clutch will need replacing sooner rather than later as I cant stand driving it like this...

Thank you :) Its nice to back! Unfortunately this one wont be to the same standard as the previous build, as the R34 will take priority.This isnt to say everything will be bodged because it wont be, it just wont have as much money ploughed into it. We're off to a great start (not). Failed the...

Déjà vu... Some may remember me, some may not. Heres a small introduction :) My name is Chris aka hoodedreeper, i'm 30 from Norwich,Norfolk. I've been a member of MSC for quite a few years. I started off with a green 1.0L pre-facelift K11 which started off well until an RTC ended its life...

Found some newly built industrial units around the corner from the fiancée's work. Would have been rude not to take some photos while I was there :P

With the Covid-19 lockdown,finding things to do has been quite tricky. I decided to give the engine bay a much needed tidy and spruce up. I saw some photos of a strut brace refurbished in a wrinkle type paint which got me thinking. I thought of using truck bed liner paint and a quick google...

Awhile back when the bumper got repaired due to a paint defect, I wanted to cut the bumper and open it up but the bodyshop wanted too much money (I thought they were painting the whole bumper under warranty, but they werent) So i decided to go ahead with it now. The bottom piece isn't completely...

Time for an update! The biggest announcement being I'm going to be a dad! Woohoo! Its due to arrive 6 weeks after the wedding which is gonna make our summer very busy! Bought a new camera lens, a Canon 35mm f/1.4 so gave the car a clean to test it out A few weeks ago we...

Got some good and bad news :( The bad news is, the engine upgrades that I've been storing will be on hold for awhile longer :( The good news is, I'm getting married! So I've now got a year to organise that which to be fair most is already sorted. Followed by a honey moon in Japan in 2021! (I...

Its been a busy month or so, I've been waiting to build up enough info/photos to make it worth while posting. The first package to arrive was from Japan. I've been wanting to try it for awhile now so I bit the bullet and ordered some. Its an expensive way to drink coffee but oh so JDM The...

I've been looking for a rear tow hook for awhile but couldn't find one I liked, so I made one Using the original one as a template, I extended it so it would be visible underneath the bumper The original is a 2 skin pressed piece with a bracket on the side. Mine is made from 6mm steel sheet...

June is Prom month for alot of students, I was thankful to be asked to do a couple (only have photos of the first one). It was great to help out fellow Skyline lovers, hopefully see them on here in a few more years time lol Me and Lu took a drive out for a bite to eat, ended up doing a 100...

In the future I plan on getting the interior trims skinned in Carbon Fibre. I've decided to paint them instead for the time being. I wanted something subtle but eye catching if seen in the right light. White would have been too much and so would Red, so I decided to go Black, but which one...

Some photos from the same mini shootshoot

Today marks 1 year since I purchased the car, time flies when you're having fun 'ey! I've made some before and after photos :)

After 24hrs the seats had marked the doorcards quite badly, so I had to sort them out ASAP. I removed the doorcard to have a look, hoping I could modify and retrim the arm rest. But upon a closer look the whole door card would need re-doing and I didn't really fancy all that work. So I adapted...

I've been looking at replacement seats for a couple of months but have always been undecided on which ones. Last week we took a visit to GSM Performance to consult with the sales team on various seats and to try them. Being a 'bigger build' comfort was top priority, and trying the seats out...
