    a short 'project' thread can be seen here

    http://www.driftworks.com/forum/drift-car-projects-builds/152559-matts-180sx-project-3.html

    Nissan Silvia 180sx Imported 2007

    68,500miles on it. its all still in kph and hasn't been converted. (currently reads around 113,000 kms)

    tax = april

    mot = feb

    I use the car on a daily basis. sits pretty well- altohugh i just lowered it a bit and its catching on the arches.

    to add, despite the body not being great, the underside is pretty good as its not been in the countly long and mustve been sealed up pretty quickly once it was in the UK

    ICE:

    Possibly no head unit at time of sale unless I find a cheap one.. all wiring will be there though so plug and play
    Infinity 6x9s and uprated door speakers.

    Other Information


    im gonna be blunt with all the bad bits.

    body works isnt good. - arches buggered at front, rear arches just covered in black vinyl, bot is crack from a bad smoothing job - theres a few drift cars, scratched etc - front bumper's been sticked once or twice

    turbo is smokin gon over run. i can supply another tubular manifold and down pipe so you can put together another turbo set up and do a straight swap quickly and easily when ever you want ... too add to this... i may get this changed before the car sells or gets swapped... may change it for an uprated one too.


    shocks arn't great... two of them are a bit 'bouncy' and one at the front sometimes clonks when you turn.. basicly they just need a bitve tlc

    one of the elbow studs is snapped... i have jsut had it drilled out but only had a m6 nut and bolt to hand , so its blowing.. ( not really a big deal as you will be changing the tubo anyway)

    will not come with stereo

    indicators double fash when turning right.

    oil leak from rocker cover aorund the half circle bits at the front ( common aprently)


    Will also come with

    Apex manifold, and down pipe
    box of spares inc some discs
    a pair of skid wheels

    finally,

    I have used this car daily for the last 7 months.. and despite the turbo issue its not let me down. very enjoyable to drive, a great driving position and pretty much skids itself. i am open to most swaps. Ideally something, obviously it much be rwd - NA.. or an r32 but try me..
