    So after the sale of the 350z over the weekend, I went down to Emperor Performance in Birmingham and picked this up. To say I was excited was an understatement.

    Fresh import.
    1st UK Owner.
    68,000 miles.
    Freshly serviced.
    Greddy FMIC.
    APEX air filter.
    Deep Dish wheel.
    Apexi oil pressure, water temp and boost gauges.
    Custom Oil catch can.
    Random set of 18s.
    ENDLESS brake disks.
    ENDLESS brake lines.
    ENDLESS performance brake pads.
    Tein springs and adjustable shocks.
    Catback exhaust.
    Stock Turbo and stock boost.
    12 CDs of Japanese KPop goodness.
    Rare as Japanese Sat Nav model stereo with TV built in (which obviously doesn't work.)

    This car is seriously clean and I am made up with it. Major improvement over the s14a I had and it's good to have boost back after the 350z.

    Always been a massive fan of the 1JZ engine and chasers in general and so thought now was the time to pick one up.

    Apologise for the terrible picture, I'll grab some better pictures over the weekend.

    The only issue is it needs a new rear left wheel bearing as it's making an awful noise at the minute.

    Thanks for looking.

    Appreciate it!

    Yeah, the pictures really do not do it justice. It's immaculate.

    Can't wait to start messing with it.

    Cheers man, I'm loving it so far.

    Keep finding more little things with it too. Whoever had it before me installed some LEDs behind the heater blowers that change colours randomly. Might keep them in there just for the shits.

    Yeah I completely agree. Got a few ideas in mind.

    Thanks mate, really happy with it.

    ............

    So just ordered a new rear wheel bearing and on the hunt for some coilovers. Not happy with the height and it's a bit boat like on the current shocks and springs.

    Anybody got an idea what wheels they are? I'll take them off at the weekend and have a look. Seem like Work VS-XX reps to me.
