So sold the 20v Ae86 i had after loosing interest in the whole thing, felt my time was up with it so bit the bullet and sold it on. And took the notion to try a dirty datsun, considered 32s, 33s and 14s but always had the urge for a 180. So found out about this very car and it happened to be local so went and looked at it and wasnt dissapointed. Not long in from Japan and basically unmolested and unabused by the looks of things. Owner painted the entire car as there was some laquer peel on the bonnet and wing so freshened it all up. Car is standard engine wise bar a backbox of some kind. Set of Tein Coilovers and Work emotions (gay width and offset). Interior is also basically mint apart from a wanky Razö gearknob and ripped gator. (First thing to go in the bin) Ill not bore you all anymore so heres some pics. Going to get some underside pics in the next few days. Big plans for this so will be adding to it as i go along. Want to keep it a nice tidy streeto car, i really enjoy driving this thing, nicest car ive ever owned to drive. To do: Wheels - undecided - open to suggestions, not going for crazy widths of offsets, there isnt any overfenders going on this car! Coilovers - done - need setup and screwed down a bit Some carbon add ons for the bumpers Change the rear taillight garnish for a carbon one or dip it. Lazy eye mod for the headlights - gay but i like it. Pair of Brides Half cage maybe. Nardi steering wheel Defi gauges or an equivalent - boost,oil pressure, water temp etc. Rear subframe locking collars - purchased yet to be fitted Full exhaust system Driftworks rear/front arms maybe? ACT Clutch + upgraded flywheel Front mount intercooler Precision Turbo of some sort - want to keep this car driveable on the road so a quick spooling turbo will be required. 6boost manifold Link G4+ eventually Injectors etc etc. Goal is a safe and reliable 300-350bhp (hopefully) Slightly silly list of things to do but thats off the top of my head - im totally new to nissans as this is my first so knowledge of everything is limited as such. [emoji849] And drive the brains off it and enjoy it most of all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thats really really nice. Type X literally needs nothing doing to look amazing, as shown here. Just dont smash that lip haha
That is absolutely mint! I've always wanted mine to be white! Definitely be keeping my eye on this one!
Thanks guys. I have to say im absolutely over the moon with it. Im not one for bragging or anything like that but it is definitely very clean. Cant wait to get some new bits bought for it [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Got a chance to use a lift today so put these new locking collars in, cant believe how easy they were to fit. Got some underneath pics also. And a friends chaser that he bought recently. Id love one for a daily Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Aye so i bit the bullet and put in a order to Work wheels japan for a set of 17x9.5j Meister S1Rs. Basically the same as above, polished lips and pale gold centres. Also going for 20mm wings and 30mm rear over fenders. All to come in the next few weeks. After that i think im going to start the engine work [emoji137] Bye bye moneyz.

Whats the offset of the s1rs? doubt you'll need over fenders for them to fit unless they have mega negative offset
Those rear used jacking points hit me right in the feels. And please don't cut out those virgin fenders .
Indeed, lock up your grinder Don't ruin a perfectly matching set of wheels with horrid fibreglass fenders
S1Rs are 0 et fronts and +10 rears. Overfenders are going on unfortunatley as the car got a slight ding doing some door to door streeto lol. So going all out now with it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
