lol... cut me some slack - it's been 3 years since i took japanese in college. i still think a s13 is a 'kawai' car though. i guess my girlfriend is rubbing off on me.

this is the 180sx we SHOULD be getting on Monday. forgot to check what year, but what's important is there.

'91-'93 180sx, SuperHicas, 5 speed, stock motor, stock boost

Blitz BOV
Blitz Turbo Timer
Blitz Boost Gauge
Momo steering wheel with 'turbo' horn button
shitty pedal covers
an MD player
SPATS front STB
Apex'i rear STB
Apex'i intake & filter
Apex'i front pillowball mounts
GAB coilovers
Enkei 16x?7? +?? wheels
Safety21? 4pt rollbar (with crossbar)
mystery 3" exhaust
mystery grounding kit
the dirtiest stock seats i've EVER seen

not a whole lot, but $2k isn't a terrible deal... well, $2400 in the end, after we pay JCI and road tax. it's a fairly clean car, just a few minor cosmetic things..

we'll start tinkering with it after Lisa gets back from their first cruise...
That'll give me time to work any bugs out and make sure it's ok.

The first things we'll get are things like a HICAS canceller, 5 lug stuffs, wheels, brakes...
Or maybe we'll just do some power and suspension mods... it's not a big deal right now.
I definitely want a new seat or 2. yuck.

A HICAS canceller is DEFINITELY required... that, or a new subframe.

Brian - yeah, i know. hence the title of the thread.

mrmephistopheles - You know my brother, S14Slide? He's in japan, he recently got an S13. He should be getting his computer soon, so drop him a pm, im sure he'd love to meet up. BTW, nice find :bigok:

06-26-2004, 12:42 AM
jhey for joo!
I'm just stoked it has a rollbar.
The wheels are ok.. they'll do in between now and when we get some R33 GTRs.. :D we actually have another set of 16" 4 lug wheels, so if we decided to start drifting, we'd have spares..

Good on you! RED rocks on a 180!

You can generally stock up on drift tires at the local auto-hobby shop. You find any places nearby yet to messup that shiny red paint at? :D

Those are the same wheels I have. Enkei Racing S. If they are staggered set up they should be 16x7 and 16x8 +32 offset.

Very clean!

psychedelicbeats
06-27-2004, 11:35 PM
how about upping up the status of your car with 240sx center garnish and LE/SE badges with the 240sx rear glass windows? it's no joke - represent

btw, lollers to you folks wanting to trade crap.
I actually brought my '240sx' center panel and some S14 '240sx' badges... I was going to sell them all, but I think I might put the 240sx panel on for fun! You know, reverse posing!
I see it all the time here.. saw a fake Infiniti I35 on R246 today.. see "Lexus" all the time...
I DID find a 240sx on base, though.. real deal holyfield! LHD and everything.. it's an Aztec Red coupe.. dunno if it has SR or KA or what.. but it's owned by some Japanese dude.
If he had it for sale and it had an SR, i would SO pimp that here.
