I went to photo a long term project that my friend has been working on.

Theres a few more photos on MY BLOG, I'd really appreciate feedback on the writeup as its something I want to take further (its got the whole story behind the bodykit from 2005 to now).

I'm no photographer, so go easy on the photo feedback. I'd love to invest in some lenses, but I've got an S14a to make badass, so thats the priority!

Any feedback you guys have that I could forward on to the builder, let me know!

240sxvaj · 08-17-2010, 10:36 AM

what happen to the fuel door?

Quail · 08-17-2010, 10:37 AM

The car is still far from finished, but it was going to have a filler in the boot* to keep it clean. I think the plans have changed though.

Edit - *trunk

BoxerJackJohnson · 08-17-2010, 10:45 AM

Now thats a different look

*brndck* · 08-17-2010, 12:59 PM

dude i have the issue of banzai that car is featured in, ugh its sooooo dang sexy! i love the detail he put into it, like the dash conversion, and that his fenders are metal.
i preferred the blue over this color tho...
**Edit**
wow now that i read the whole blog post, its freaking rad that he's made these as a production piece. any idea what the pricing range will be?

240KA · 08-17-2010, 01:25 PM

thats different, and i surprisingly like it. could use a wing, lower in the front, and it would be better.

Quail · 08-17-2010, 01:37 PM

The blue was indeed pretty badass!

The moulds were taken from that car so its a bit tired, but it will be back on the road soon

240KA, the original car above had a wing and it does look good. Steve (the owner of the cream car) is intending to wind down the front further, but he has to modify his coilovers.

conrad_s13.5 · 08-17-2010, 01:37 PM

which issue of Banzai was it in?

Quail · 08-17-2010, 01:55 PM

I can't remember mate sorry, it was a fair few years ago now

AYE MAN THIS IS KADEEM!!! · 08-17-2010, 02:10 PM

i like it! it does need some type of spoiler though

PoorMans180SX · 08-17-2010, 02:13 PM

Looks pretty good, except for the front bumper. I understand where he was trying to go, but leave light cut-outs to RX-7's.

Quail · 08-17-2010, 02:33 PM

Sorry, I forgot to answer brndcks question on price. He has a price in mind, and it will be very competitive compared to Japanese products, and IMO it'll even compete with replica products (in this part of the world anyway). Price hasn't been finalised though so I wouldn't like to say just incase.

roboticnissan · 08-17-2010, 02:48 PM

This is beautiful. The rear end is the sexiest part. (On girls too)

chucky norris · 08-17-2010, 09:41 PM

super clean and that is an awesome picture of the car

Mr.ny 240!! · 08-17-2010, 10:13 PM

thats one fresh 180sx..the rear and color definitely attracts my eye

idahotuner · 08-17-2010, 10:26 PM

wow. i love it. the sleekness is sexy

*dawagarage* · 08-18-2010, 01:25 AM

fuck that car. aka i love it

20 til 3 · 08-18-2010, 01:53 AM

so i dont really understand something here, are you saying that your looking to put the kit into production?

car does look sick... i would also agree that a wing would be a must

Motormouth759 · 08-18-2010, 04:58 AM

Different to say the least, but is supper clean and I like it alot. NO wing put a roof spoiler on it and be done with it.

rat240 · 08-18-2010, 05:05 AM

I do like how the front looks and the doors look stock they need some type or cap to flow with the rest of the car

turbo_dreams · 08-28-2010, 02:23 PM

Friend requested him on FB and messaged on a price on the fenders+quarter panels...sucks that the production kits are fiberglass, despite his "unique" mix of resin.

NECTUNE · 09-28-2010, 05:40 PM

ino20 · 10-03-2010, 04:27 PM
