Hello from South Africa

Good day gentlemen and Ladies

New owner and member on the forum.

Unfortunately and due to the state of my local community I decided to join your forum opposed to our local forum, on which one post is made every six months for new members only, haha.

This forum and its members rock and gives the "gaijin's" a lot of valuable information.

My car is a pearl white 2013 model, automatic 370z which is very stock indeed with a low 32 000km on the odometer. I plan to do a full 2015+ Nismo spec exterior and partial interior upgrade if the money allows it, however shipping is most definitely going to kill me (want to be the first one in South Africa). No nismo model's were ever made available to us, great work Nissan South Africa.

The barbed wire is a nice touch in the photo. Lol. Good choice of color.

Nice 1st post. A yakuza in So. Africa. If you need a parts list for your conversion I can help. I have a '12 & did mine in '16.

yakuza1307 · 12-05-2018, 05:31 AM

Haha gents, the crime rates in this country are crazy hey.

12 foot walls, barbed fence on top of that, with a six line electric fence, as well as 12 cameras in and around where we park plus the addition of a security company doing their rounds and being parked a mere 12 meters from our entrance, how do they say TIA (this is Africa)

I would appreciate any and help and input gents!

And thank you for the warm welcomes!
