FTO AUSTRALIA

Put a new shifter on.

Goes well with the short shifter!

Also got a guard roller from Connor today, so will head to bunnings for a heatgun and go to town with it.

*fingers crossed*

May practice on the 121

It looks... tall.

Does the smoke stuff move, because if it did, that would be pretty rad. I was about to suggest that a lava lamp in a gear-stick would be cool, until I remembered those things get kinda hot.

No the smoke stuff doesnt move, yeah its a bit tall, but not too bad, its got a little bit of weight in it, so its really easy to change gears

Ill have to get a H-Pattern shifter because apparently its illegal if you dont have the pattern for the shift.

True. I recall someone saying somewhere about having the pattern on the console? Don't quote me on that though. That is if you don't mind it being on the stick I suppose.

Defs wouldn't put it on it.

I'll find something

Does anyone know what the PCD is for our steering wheels?

some of the nissan sylvia's have the shift pattern on a sticker either just infront or behind the shifter itself, although it may have been aftermarket as it was a nismo sticker.

you could always get the H-pattern engraved into the top of it?

I might buy the first one and stick it below/between the ash tray and lighter.
or I might engrave a plate myself.

That's gold!

Guard rolling was a success, cracked a little paint on the underside of one of the arches, but nothing major, all around a good result.

Here is some pics.

Also yes i was thinking of getting it engraved on the top with black.

And just cos I can, added some camber.

Yes I know this will f**k with the toe, but it scrubbed so meh.

Definitely need those megan arms, there is f**k all adjustment on the back!

- Changed all 6 spark plugs from copper to iridiums (most were faaaaarked)
- Soaked up all the excess oil from old seals (plugs love swimming in oil)
- Replaced spark plug seals and rocker cover gaskets
- Replaced pod filter with K&N (Just wait till i upload pics)
- Changed fuel filter (IT WAS THE f**king FACTORY ONE.)
- Thoroughly cleaned intake manifold, throttle body and intake components (flooded with oil)

...Safe so say it was a solid effort! (For Kiz anyway, I'm just useless)

Did some LED research at Jaycar

Fitted blue LEDS to Fog Light Switch, Antenna Switch, & Side Mirror Switch
Fiddly little pain in the arse jobs but looks good
