Hey, im Desi.
this is my build
(sloth speed engaged)
Il keep this page posted on every new update and piece i put in.
Just a couple of pictures from when i painted my calipers, the cap on the tires and license plate cover.
not much...
But we all start somewhere.
So just put in new lights!
Made her eyes nice and bright.
I got them off ebay from HERE and HERE!
It was much harder then i thought it would be.
Considering theres a lot of pieces you need to take out to get behind the light.
The left side was really easy, just simply pull back the clip and then push down on the tab.
Now the right side was little harder, because it involves taking out the stock air intake.
the top plastic parts simple pop out, no clips like this.
The air intake clips into the frame with the usual nissan plastic clips.
simple to pop out and remove the air intake.
Then remove the smaller tube that simply slides out, and expose the headlight plug.
This is were it gets a lot trickier...
First you need to open the bottom to get at the fog lights.
Take out all the plastic clips that protects the bottom of the engine bay.
The right side is very simple and looks like this:
now i didnt take a picture before closing it up, cause im an idiot.
but the right side is MUCH harder to do, only because
(im not sure what its for but) theres a white container almost complelty in the way.
its still posible to get under around it, but you need to watch out you dont bang up your new bulbs trying to put them in.
so at the end of 1h or 2.
it comes out looking like this!
Really happy about this!
Tell me what you guys think!
Got some Night shots:
PS: my header just got here, as im writing!
Just like that!
ordered my header from HERE
And they look, THIS GOOD:
gonna wait till my brother get home so he can help me instale them.
my mods are starting to come together!
gonna be a good time!
Il keep this page posted on every new update and piece i put in.
Just finished everything up!
and it really sounds great!
this is what the stock header looks like,
Its a 4-2-1 pipe with the the 2 cats attached in the middle.
Heres just a quick video of my new lights and header,
dont mind my driving glasses 8) i know they look good.

Just finished my decal
looks something like this.
Did some paint work while the cars gonna be sitting around for a while.
Taking the clips off are a PAIN IN THE ASS.
but now that i know how it comes off its really not bad at all...
Blacked out the grill... i think it looks SWEET with the chrome.
Dinner and paint.
Awwwww yahh.....
I did some more painting while i wait for my springs to arrive by UPS.
i love the way the painted engine covers looked but i wanted to make it a little personal.
I put everything back together.
PS dont try and start your car with the whole engine cover out... it doesnt work to well.
and with the grill
all together it looks like this!
I am currently having SOME problem with the headers. i have a SES light from the O2 sensor, under the car in the exhaust. its saying that the cats are not burning up to regulations.
it does not cause you to burn rich, or doesn't cause any problems.
just gives you the light.
im pretty sure that it can be fixed with a spacer.
BUT TO MORE IMPORTANT ISSUES!
I checked them all out, and they are all legit!
Just got some new stopping power.
The old ones are squeaking like a school bus.
Also picked up downpipe.
SOME GOOD NEWS,
and some bad news.....
bad news is,
My baby hurt her foot, and she blew a tire.
i dont know if its bad to drive around like this.
If anyone could tell me that would be huge.
good news is that i got her a little something.
(but apparently some people have been having trouble with it. might get my brother to do some extra spot welding.)
UPDATE 7/9/2010

And some of the bigger details...
