Hi folks. I'we been reading a lot at this forum for a couple of mounths now, and finaly have som pictures of my car to share with you guys.
I bougth my car at the end of May this year, and so far i have installed a HS header and HS CAI. This weekend i have been tinkering with the mesh in the front bumper, I'm almost finished, just need a couple of brackets to fasten the mesh at the bottom. I'm quite pleased with the result :)
My car is a 2001 STCC Edition. It's pretty much stock, just another set of 17" rims and slightly bigger tires 225/45-17, (stock:215/45-17)

The exhaust tip don't look so good, the previous owner must have changed it to this. You can clearly see that the two tips split frome one pipe. I have plans to replace the rear silencer with a new "straight throw" one.

I think the seats are the same as those in the sport edition.
They are realy nice to sit in, great sideway support!
The STCC edition is basicly a sport, some of the diffrences is: lowering spings, 17", front strut brace, sandblasted valve cover, light covers, side sills, carpet floor mats, rear spoiler.

Next mod will be white sideblinkers and removing the mudflaps then??
*hehe*!
Mudflaps may come in handy under winter season tough..!
:-\
Where did you get the engine modifications? (local performance shop, or did you "import" them yourself?)

I imported the HS myself, the shipping costs where a bit prizy, but apart from that everyting where straight forward :)
Nice ride. I got the same exact rims!! Except mine are like 6 years old haha. Its definitely a classic wheel. I was thinking about retiring mine and upgrading to a set of forged black diamond RG-R's but I think the RX suites my ride better. I'll probally pick up a 5th RX for a spare and spend the cash on the next BABK GB. You'll have to go to 40 series tire if you decide to drop it and you might want to downgrade to a max width 215 or you'll have some rubbing issues. Careful if you go to a lower series because our BBS's bend pretty easy but you are safe w/ your travel and 45's.

Yes the spoiler came with the car. It is included on the STCC Edition (Sweedish Touring Car Championship). There where 100 cars made with this equipment package, a Norwegian named Tommy Rustad won the championship in 99 and the Norwegian importer of Nissan made 100 of this car to celebrate the victory.
Mine is number 17 :)

I like the rx rims, but have been looking around for a new set of rims. I like the Volk racing wheels, but i don't know how they would look on my car. But soon I have to put on my winter tyres, so I don't have to worry about any rims untill spring. I have some stock Nissan 16" rims with 205/55 Michelin Maxi Ice for the winter.
I'm considering to downgrade to 215/45-17 when i buy new tires. My car is lowerd aprox. 35mm (original from Nissan), and it don't rub anywhere.

LOVE the factory light covers... and 144s are hot, someone should really do this conversion.
Lucky #17!!! There's no love for G20/Primeras from NissanUSA. Limited Edition anything here... boo.
