Well it's obviously a wide body, which means one thing, Hella Money!!! What exact kit it is, I don't know, but if you do want that one, be prepared to fork out a lot of cash. Some guy made a post on here asking about a wide body kit, that thing was $3,200.00 shipped. Just a little FYI for ya.

it doesnt really look like wa widebody kit. it just looks like fender flares and the bottom of the front matches up with it.

What are you talking about bro??? That is definately a wide body. Look how the bumper comes out, the only part of that car that isn't out is the doors. ;)

Ruf is right it is a "agasthiya 180sx DTM Modified"
It was the Option2 March 2001 cover car.

It's one of those incredibly ugly impractical j-spec kits.

Don't tell me you're "looking into buying one."

hahaha, I'm thinking about it. its between that and a bomex with fender flares. What can i say i got bad taste. i used to be all into the sleeper look but it doesnt get a$$. heheh i guess im shallow, but i promise to be pushing atleast 300whp minimum, so i can atleast back up the looks

IIRC, that car pushes well over 400hp. If you really want that kit, have $4K+ ready. Otherwise, don't bother.

LOL, cool. A little to crazy. Why not the Jacquemond kit? That's pretty stylish but at the same time guaranteed to get you some attention (for $4k). It's also more readily available.

Do you have a pic of the Jacquemond kit? I would like to know what you're talking about here. Also I like that wide body kit, and I think you should back it up before you put it on. My $.02

That things gotta be heavy, but it is so bad a$$. No way I could put that on my car..if my g\f had a 240 thats a different story.

They are on their 3rd generation kit, I think. They keep looking better and better IMO (very smooth). It's probably straight fiberglass, and it replaces virtually every body panel, so I don't think it would be very heavy.

you'll get gang raped on the shipping though. shipping body kits is more expensive then exhausts and heavy items. why? LOTS of packaging if you want that body panel to stay in once piece.

True, especially coming from overseas (I think). You'd be best off going through their US distributor if they have one and picking it up.

It does not replace the rear quarters but it looks like you could technically cut most of that metal off....There goes that .30 drag coeficiant....Heck now that I look at it, I wonder if its lighter ( wishful thinking ) .:)

Does anyone have more pictures of that wide body 180sx. or can anyone scan it out of the Option Mag. i got 7,000 to spend. And i've NEVER seen anyone rollin around wit a wide body 240sx before. think that would be hella koo. And what size rims are those on the car?

Don't really like either one of those kits. The jacquemond front looks fugly, and the other one looks too boxy. Ehh, sorry. Oh yeah, I especially like how the car in the 2nd link is on stock steels in front. :rolleyes:
