Part 2:

I’ve always liked the big aero look but something felt off to me. I think the fitment of the 8.5 Blitz was too weak and I didn’t have money to paint it at the time. So I sold off the kit and the front Blitz. I held onto the rears for a long time because of the rarity but eventually I sold them off too. Wish I didn’t, I’d love a set again soon.









The Subaru decided to kill itself so I was back in the market for a new daily. I settled on a F150 under the assumption I would use it as a work truck. Lol




To replace the Blitz, I bought the some more Model Vs, this time 18x10 +19 all around. Also got a Nardi Classic too and had the front suspension modified by Villains Drift around this time.








Just like every other set of wheels Ive owned, I sold the Advans shortly after they got on the car. Looked cool but not what I wanted in the end.



So with the car aeroless and wheel less, I started accumulating parts. I bought a Type X bumper and some skirts. Unfortunately, I sold the valances I had so I couldn’t finish the look immediately. I also bought a holy grail set of wheels for me. My 17x9 +22 Nismo LMGT4s.






These things were perfect condition and one of my favorites wheels ever made so I was beyond excited to finally own them. Getting them on the car spurred me to wash the car for the first time in a year.






Bought some Hurricane mirrors and a Thrash seat that popped up locally. I mounted up all the new 180sx aero and took more pictures. If you cant tell, the car really never got out of my parents driveway in this period.







Still collecting bits and pieces for the build, I somehow stumbled on a pair of Abflug headlights. They were beat up but I had to jump on them.





So at this point, I graduated from school and finally got a job. I moved to a little house with a single car garage and quickly shoved all my car stuff inside. Every room of the house has parts from the 240.
