Alpine's Nismo Street/Track/Drift Build
Recently picked up my 09 Nismo from a local seller down here in Miami. I previously owned a 06 s2000 which I traded straight for the nismo, and prior to that I had a Turbo BRZ. I plan to keep the Nismo a fairly simple build good for street with tracking and drifting in mind. I'm going to try and keep the pictures nice with DSLR photos depending whether or not I can get my hands on one to shoot with.
Current Modifications: GT-R Start Button Weathertech Floormats Personal Steering Wheel Works Bell Standard Hub Tomei Expreme Ti Exhaust Megan Y-pipe Tomei 70mm Shift Knob Black / Silver Headlight Paint (Not Installed) Custom Recaro Pole Position Planned Modifications: Enkei NT03+M 18x10.5 +30 in Mag Blue (Maybe) Enkei RS05-RR Gram Lights 57dr HKS Hipermax GT Coilovers / Tein Mono/Street Flex 2015 Nismo Front Bumper / Amuse Front Bumper LED's All Around Project Kics Lug Nuts |
Nice buy!
But i wouldn't recommend down grading your 19" Nismo Rays for 18" Enkei... |
Awesome dude!!!! BTW if you are going to buy the 18" Enkei wheels dont sell your Nismo wheels hahaha!!! they looks really good... and if you are going to sell you Nismo front bumper to change them for the 2015 Nismo haha! sell me that one to me :p

Tomei and Works Bell Arrived the same day so I was able to install my exhaust and my steering wheel.

One of my ideas brought to life thanks to photoshop, Just messing around and still deciding what to do the stock wheels have plenty of grip to hold me over.

Been having a few issues with the car lately. My a/c compressor has decided to die, CSC is on it's way out, and while trying to change out a bad O2 sensor in the header I stripped the bung out. So with that being said mods are being put on hold for a little. However I did get a chance to do an almost free mod which is baking my headlights and painting the insides black! This to me was a HUGE improvement on the exterior aesthetics of the car. Which makes me a little happy after all the bad news I've been getting from the car.

damn hope you can resolve the problems soon dude!! In the mean time the new mod of the head lights looks really good :tup: I want to do that mod but I can find someone here in PR who i can trust to do the job :(

Headlights look great!! Hope you can get the other issues sorted out painlessly.

New header and 02 sensor have been put on.. The new AC compressor goes on tomorrow. CSC is ordered along with a new Nissan Badge for my front bumper is my previous pictures you can see the one I have does not fit. Also I got my Tomei Shift Knob installed and realized how terrible it is by itself. So I ordered a Z1 Finisher and that comes tomorrow. When it does I'll throw a picture up of it.
|
NICE DUDE!!! ALMOST DONE :tup:
|
I completely agree with the blacked out headlights having a huge impact on the exterior. As soon as I got mine done, my gf & I were both in agreement that it should have been done sooner :)
|
Didn't even notice the badge was off center at first. That would drive me nuts!

Little update: Tomei Shift Knob installed, got my compressor replaced. Replaced my o2 and stripped the slot on the header for it so I had to get a new OEM header. Replaced it, drove 30 miles and the CEL came back. SO now I have to figure out what the cause of that is. |
Little bit of drifting action. I plan on getting tuned next, then wheels and tires. I will say drifting on the stock tires is quite a challenge they are very grippy.

nice dude!!! :tup:

As if I don't have enough problems with this car. My gas tank sensor decided to go so it's a guessing game until I run out of gas lol...
in other news however https://scontent-mia1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...62&oe=564FFAD4 |
damn sorry to hear about the problem with your gas sensor bro! byt damn that seat looks really good :yum:
|
REAL UPDATE ALERT!
Lol, I installed my coils today which has been the biggest pain in the *** compared to any other car that I have owned. I guess it only made sense since I've already had so many other little problems occur in the mean time. With that being said I didn't have time to adjust ride height so it is what it is for now. Here is the two pictures I got of it for now. https://scontent-mia1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...5f&oe=564EF60D https://scontent-mia1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...b0&oe=5637035D |
:tup:

Raised the car up in the front today and dropped it in the rear a hair so it looks a little more level and drivable. I'll try and get some DSLR pics this weekend for you guys :)
|
are you experiencing any scraping with the Tomei now that you're low? I'm thinking of getting the full catback but it looks like the muffler hangs looowwww. Car looks great btw!
