Should be able to view pics in members rides, but i just checked and it's not working for me....

Here's a few piccies of my beloved Sniz #1 who was written off about 9 months ago...





My current bluey (Sniz #2) is stock as a rock, so not really worth posting pics up of her. Just imagine a series 1, sss bluey, in aquamarine (same as my first sniz), but with a sunroof... Oh and an engine which cost me $3k to replace after i did a head gasket (stock KA24DE)  ;)

Rims can be a bit tricky on the bluebird - lots of cheap chunk, not much in nice lightweight rims. Can't find much to fit over Z32 calipers either which is a pain.

Mine still looks like my avatar - stock, except for the exhaust, slightly visible front-mount and sitting a little lower. I really like the look of the rims on NIZ013s photos, they suit it very well, but like most rims wouldn't have much clearance between the spokes and brake calipers.

lol kim, you've already asked and niz has already answered

The lenso's i had on NIZ #1 were 17x7's, and were off a 180sx. i think the offset was +38. So i'd say the +40's would be the way to go.

also the wheels are exactly the same from Attesa to ADM, so lukes would fit on yours like a glove, the stock twin piston brakes make very little difference to the required offset.

First Question... goes out to nbgrove57,  what make, size and offset are those rims(i like the dished look)?? also where did you get the clear turn signal covers??

second.... what are those tail light covers on the white bluey .. they look neat!!

third.... for ka-bluey..  where did you get the skirt and rear bar lip from ?? my atessa 91 model doesnt have that skirt and i like the look.  also what make, size and offset are the white rims you had.. I have a white bluey and i think that white wheels might suit.

thanks guys  :)

Mate, got the tail lights (they are aftermarket replacements, not covers) from US Ebay. The chrome ones (as seen on mine) are pretty rare these days but there are plenty of the tinted style for sale. If you buy them, just expect them to arrive absolutely rooted. I had to get an auto electrician to completely rewire mine as everything was mixed up, even one indicator wasn't even connected. The lights also didn't fit perfectly and leaked water. To fix it, I just shaved a 1-2cm of each side until it lined up perfectly and then bogged up the bastard with all clear silicon.

From memory, Tommy (Ka-bluey) used Toyota Camry Sportivo end caps instead of using the very rare and elusive genuine U13 rear end caps. If you search he made a thread about it.

that is correcto mendo.

I did indeed use the Camry rear skirts, with slight trimmings done.

This is my project page, shows how i've done all the work. If you want photos you will need to ask which one's you want.

The mags are Motegi Racing MR7, imported from US. I had them for sale about 4 months ago, bought them new for $1600 w/o rubber and sold them for $700 w rubber.
