Hey dudes i'm Oliver, new to Zilvia but have been browsing on here for a while. I'm from Aus, love drifting and building cars. I have a few cars but thought I might as well throw up a build thread for my 180sx. Might make one for my S13 later on.

I bought the car in june 2010 as a mild street car with a slightly modified CA. Ended up destroying the motor so ripped it out and had a think about what to do next. I wanted to do something a little different so built a 2.1L CA and attached a GTX3071. Works really well so far and doesn't have an insane amount of lag.



It made 291.8kw without any issues. Drove it for the first time a couple weeks ago and had a sick time.



Also went to a drift matsuri a at the end of last month and had a crazy good weekend. Went through loads of tyres, got lots of videos and overall had the best time in the car.



Still have loads to do with my suspension setup and some aero so quite a fair way to go until I'm finished.

Here's a rundown of everything in the car.
