Sweet sounds good. I'm finishing my swap today and I'm already done with the suspension, the next thing will be to stance it with those badass fenders. I'll hit you up when the time comes. Thanks ahead of time.

Over the last couple of week, I didn't have a lot of time to spend on the 180sx because I was working full time. I also had to give some love to my sir eg6; the clutch was broken and the engine had over 180 000 miles. I decided to buy a civic type-R engine

Last drive before removing the sir, FYI the gtr is my friend's car


Sir


How the type-r arrived from Japan (not mine by the way - just another one waiting for a home)


The type-r I bought


Sir out


Empty engine bay


Almost done


I have been told by plenty of person that the swap wouldn’t take me any longer than two days... I ended up spending two weeks because of all the things that didn’t fit properly and the tons of details that I didn’t know about.


Now for the 180sx
I took some pictures with the overfenders, still no alignment












I have installed the rear coilovers


front coilovers, exterior tirods, samco hoses, walbro gas pump


put some colors in the trunk


I installed the pump with new gas tank gasket, but I forgot to take pictures


I had to change the s13 inner tirods for the 300zx inner tirods in order so fit the SPL ones


How the engine bay looks like


Front coilovers installed


Starting to have some light !




Lights didn't close so I searched 'til I found this ... I tried with a silvia controller and it works well, but my pop ups just don't lift. Then I noticed that the controller from the180 had 2 plugs and the silvia only one, so that might be the problem.

4 mounts later not a lot have change

I got a type-x areo kit (Bumper and Side skirts)


Adjusted the ride height camber/toe/caster (still needs to be aligned professionally)






Test fitted the bumper


Bleaded the brakes


Cold Canadian winter and a lot of snow arrived!
My daily 97 Volvo 850!




So this winter i needed to work on the car, so i searched and haven't found no place to store and still work on it at a reasonable price. I stored it at home, at first as you can see it was pretty bad getting around the car!




Made some room in the garage and received the last missing aero part


Pretty hard to explain what i did with the wiring so i made this paint drawing to explain




I made a hole and fitted/hidden the harness
Engine bay


Inside car


Wiring almost done (still looks like a headache)


Motor, still needs the piping's to be done in one piece and some black powder coat on some parts


S13 fuel filter, i installed it under the car but pictures were 2 dark, i will try again later


I am also working on a is300/altezza Ducktail Wing

The car in April, was driving really good no major problem!


Then we made the intercooler pipings








Also bought a new tial blow off


Blow off on intercooler and wideband o2 on test pipe




Starting the front over fenders, 2 friends came to help.






Flare molded on fender




Still a long way to go!








My friend give me his fenders for free, that was nice of him but
they are in a bad shape so I had to put a lot of time in them to bring them like new








Late night work


Almost done, and remember these are only prototypes for my molds they will go to the garbage once finish!




Also received a genuine rocket bunny 180sx wing


Some other nice stuff i did in the past months

Made a mold out of a 240z 50mm flare


Made tons of flares for everyone


Here is my altezza ducktail i invented




We tried my wheels on my buddy's Frs rocket bunny
