Hi, first time making a thread like this. Just want to have an online journal to record the things being done.

2009 Nismo #164 (previous owner Earlz370), purchased in Nov 2011 with 11k miles on the clock. Paid $500 to CarMax upfront to ship to Dallas. Car arrived after a week. I ran my hand through the underside of the front bumper, couldn't feel any scratch or damage, and knowing it was used as a 2nd car (as will I), I purchased the car on the date of arrival, 11/3/11.

This car is bare bone, no backup camera, not even aluminum kick plates.

7/7/12 @14xxx miles - Installed Z1 34R oil cooler, M1 0w40 Euro, M1-110 filter (GTR size), Redline MT-85, @ Cobb Plano

Bumper off

Setrab 34 Row is on the car. The OEM Yamaha body damper was flipped and retained, but was taken off during installation

A closer shot

Protective hose...I still hear a little bit of whine at very low speed, but I've gotten used to it

Car will remain in this form, next change came during summer of 2013. So in between that I'll share an unfortunate event that happened to my other car in my next post.
