Does that explain why the N15s are even more prone to rust than Primeras? Reason being that cars in Japan generally aren't rust proofed, so when they do do it, they might not be much good at it! LOL

been busy again carried out;

P2 service (oil, oil filter, pollen filter, spark plugs)
decat back on (you know why)
40mm lowering springs


10w40 this time and not 15w40 like what i put in 3k ago huf...................... what a dummie.


new NGK Iridium spark plugs, certainly looks a more purposeful design too compared here to my old Bosch Supers;



new pollen filters also as the last ones where killing me slowly, together with a A/C de-odoriser canister.


whilst doing the service the fedex man gave me this big yellow box:)




so not sure if there the right way round............... eek



ta dam


poor lighting on these last two shots :( however he still looks good


really gotta watch those kerbs when parking up now tho.

well sat morning i quickly fitted my rear lowering springs before the rain came down again. then went to my local nationwide autocentre to get my tracking re-done as ive just lowered  the suspension.

ive got to say that the car handles and grips even better than before more impressive is prob the direction change now tho.


put the coil spring compressor on just incase


really hate having to take off so many god damn panels to get at the rear top mounts.. huf


before and after


all neatly fitted and loving them


ta dam


as always all comments welkom n don't be shy, im not LOL
thanx again
