28/11/18 update at end of post.

So, after...so many years on here...it's about time I put some pics up!
Aquired in July 2005 as a "got my degree" present to myself. Good ol' eBay, drove back from Wales.

The first weekend was a busy one. Out with the stock head unit, out with the tango side repeaters, and out with the nasty hands-free kit wired seemingly into every crevice behind the dash!

Then, a stone made a hole in my air-con rad. :( so, time to modify the bumper for prevention!
From the old...

 with some cheap mesh slid in behind it for a week...
to the new...

and matching bonnet mesh

Finished article...

Then... a certain auction site came in to play...

#First gold...

then...used...

Since then the rest has been done, but no pictures as yet...

Next up was the ritual snapping of the driveshaft...

But such matters are just trivial to us!

And so, to this afternoon, after being washed, waxed and rain-xed. It rained. Sorry Kent! It's my fault it rained today!!!

Yes, it's been debadged due to some chavs scratching my boot trying to nick 'em!

Anyways, hope you enjoyed...there's always more instore to do and pics will be updated when they happen (now that i've sussed this out...don't know what the anxiousness was all about really!)

Oh, and a list of what's been done so far...

Clear side repeaters
Kenwood BT60U headunit with pioneer components in the front and pioneer 6x9's under the rear shelf.
short shift gear lever
2nd Foglight mod
LED sidelights all round
LED numberplate lights
LED indicators all round (currently on resistors...new flasher unit is imminent)
Nissan Headlamp protectors
Auction site manifold and downpipe
Powerspeed low cell cat and custom stainless exhaust
custom meshing on bonnet grilles and cut and meshed front bumper
resonator boxes removed from air intake
KYB excel-g front shocks as OEM replacement
and probably more that I've forgotten right now :S

Soooo, there have been a few tweaks since then... 
most noticeable are...

300zx Caliper conversion

and cut a new hole for an air intake

and 

for this

and a slight bumper tweak to accommodate...

So, this is the current state (Well, apart from it's parked in the shop awaiting a laundry list of small jobs...
