YMB/SS F80

Definitive · 08-05-2014, 10:55 PM

So I'm not going to do the full review here, but Ill give a brief of my experience so far.

First off, the car is just magnificent. I picked her up yesterday afternoon. Car is drop dead gorgeous, and the SS interior is better than I could have imagined (although a little dirty already). The sounds great, and feels so solid. Ive had multiple thumbs up, two people have stopped me to tell me its "sexy" and a GTR has tried to race. All in 24 hours...

I did have a window issue today, where it seemed that the window seal is so tight that when the window get to the top, it thinks it hit something and then goes back down. Opening the door fixed this, which confirms my thoughts on what it is. Im going to see if it keeps happening, but I would think the window seals will stretch a little bit pretty quickly.

So last night, I only had it in me to swap the kidneys out, but after work today I completed the front and rear reflectors and side gills. Next is V1 install, and some coding!

Here are some quick shots so far. Not too happy with them, but Ill get some better ones up soon.

Nice whip and thanks for posting. I'm really debating whether to get color matched grille surrounds or gloss back. Both options change the look of the front drastically

Did you get it from Rusnak? cuz if you did I saw your beautiful car on satuday. They almost let me drive it but SA quickly found out it was sold. Out of

for the owner I did not touch or sit in it. I was pleasantly surprised by how wonderful YMB looked and how well the SS complimented it. Beautiful car. congrats.
