RSR down springs, KYB AGX struts. Spacers for the OEM wheels.
Otherwise, it is as stock as can be, and IT'S SO GOOD.

Plan is to fix the oem lip, navan side skirts and rear valences, fresh wk0 respray and continue to enjoy it for the next 100 years.

Super clean! What are the specs on the spacers? And are the RS-R springs discontinued for S14? Not seeing them on their website.

What's your plans with it?

I just plan on keeping her stock and upgrading the tires and stereo, not much more.

Thanks!

25mm spacers all around.

I picked up the springs from a buddy locally, but you can still get them in Japan.

I just got this 180sx. I?m planning on restoring it with as many new oem parts as I can before doing any kind of mods. Im a simple man. My goal for this build is nothing crazy, Kouki aero, nice clean interior and engine bay... this is my fourth s13, but first real 180sx. I hope to be able to pass this one on to my kids someday..

We should probably create a separate "spotted on bring a trailer" thread.

Probably.

Here's one in California, $11k within minutes of it going live... mostly from people seeing the guy posting it on Facebook/S-Chassis group.

7 years after selling my last one, I'm finally a 240 owner again

So far I've done a Z32 handbrake conversion, front suspension refresh (ball joints, end links, bearings, etc.) and a few other small things to pass mechanical inspection. Later added the coils and wheels. Plans are to get the engine tuned and do an OEM Silvia K's conversion - I got the spoiler and valances, just need the bumpers and front lip!

Last two S14s are both awesome. Thanks for posting them up! I just missed out on a clean K's automatic. Too slow :/

silviaks2nr - this was one of the first reasons I wanted to get an S14. Glad you still have it after all this time!

Thanks! I?m super happy with the setup. Although the 9.5 +15 with the 255 A052 is right at the limit with stock metal out back. I have camber set at -2.5.

Now I just need to find some more OEM aero.

I approve of this but also disapprove of this. I'm getting a daily car as well and I've argued with myself about suspension and wheels already lol.

That'd be great...but I dont have any spare Euro glass at the moment. I'm always on the lookout for them though. Lets figure something out.

There's a vendor in the classifieds section selling both Zenki and Kouki EDM headlights brand new from Nissan.

You talking about Mav? I didn't know these were on the list still...

I should have some content for this thread soon-ish. I feel like it's slowing down but I really want to keep this going. I've kind of shifted gears in the sense of what I'm into lately. I think I'm going to revert my cars to OEM wheels and Nismo suspension. I have some of the parts necessary already, so we'll see how it goes. If anyone has some OEM+ cars, please share them here!

Yes. It's my understanding that he may have sets of both Zenki and Kouki glass available for purchase. Shoot him an email.

I love my glass Zenki headlights(with leveling sensors). Hell I might purchase a spare set just have them just in case. Same goes with the new Kouki tail lights he has.

He doesn?t necessarily have them available. Order must be placed and there?s a long lead time. Currently still waiting for shipment. All that info is available in his post though.

That being said I did place an order for a set of zenki glass. Gonna hide them on the shelf once they arrive lol.
