Looks good and empty

This will be a record build time for an sx
Guinness word records here we come

Eish, what an eye sore, BUILD it boy.... 😉

well i got a lil box in the post it was huge but only weighed 6kg

genuine kouki lights

total cost was 4500 for lights including shipping and 1k import duty

so 5500 for lights shocking i know but i been waiting for 4years since i could afford them

and they are in perfect condition


funny sticker the jap man had on it

now this car needs to go to barry i want it finished now just so i can fit lights

anywhoo test fitted looks cool

battery relocating time

batt box with built in kill switch R150

and 50mm 1000v welding cable R80+vat per meter

running in hidden location

and sitting in boot

so total cost basicly R700 to move a battery

Oh and this lil puppy arived today

Toal cost was 1100
Brand new sealed in the nissan box

Hey M, careful those horrible chinese kill switches. They will give you sh*t from the get go.
Try and get a British made one..Name brand like Demon Tweeks or such.

Nice lighting dude !!

Thanks barry I dnt think these one are a prob I used to run 2 on my race car

But thanks we need to chat bout the car soon

made some rubber cover for where the inter cooler pipes come out


and fitted intercooler

With your skilzz I would have machined a nice round ally surround with the rubber underneath...but that's me... 😉

Oh, and I never meant that specific one is chinese made..just a general heads up..

Thanks man yea I'm not happy with it 100% but will do it trial and error

Needs that wicked spray job now

Well as fast as my project is going its going to end for 3weeks soon as I'm in england

But it will be stored and the first week I'm back from england the car will be at barry and a max of 2months after that this car will be finished no matter what

Most the pre body prep is done

Seats will be off to get covered soon

Dno if I should get std steering wheel recoverd or keep my momo drifter wheel
