Promised to post new pictures once I bought myself a camera - so here you go. Spent an afternoon polishing and got the results you see here, well happy!

Well spotted tuttle, yes she's a GTS 25t 'Type M' (anyone know what the Type M means?)and is hence RWD. Mechanically virtually standard, only a new exhaust - I'm wanting to get a cat replacement pipe soon though, should increase the noise! Would imagine it's around 250ish bhp - could do better!

I was told when I bought it that it's a full Nismo bodykit (you can just about make out the badge on the front grill), seems very high quality and 'fits' properly. I've been a bit concerned with the paint finish on the front though, seems to chip very easily, a respray may be on the cards before too long, then maybe some armourfend.

Thanks for the comments all.

I'm hoping I'll be able to resist and keep it fairly standard as I know just how much you could end up spending [used to have a mildly tweaked 200SX].

A decat is probably going to be the limit of what I want to do as insurance is scary enough at the moment - nearly double what the 172Cup cost me!

I'm about to buy another [slightly less potent] Nissan at the weekend to keep the miles off it and for bike transport to the hills, hopefully the Primera will use less fuel...

Just had a look at your car Tuttle - like the front bumper! Would have fooled me if it wasn't for the grill & lack of wheelarches, from the list of mods there you must have spent a bit on it, presume the power/performance are notably better?
