Right well iv been on the hunt for a Nissan SR20DET for a while now as some know and i went through all the phases - s14, 14a, 180sx, s15 back to a 14 and ended up with a 180 lol

I bought this off Steveone a few weeks back with brand new fresh NCT and i got it at a very very good price . I rathered the idea of buying a nice clean 180 and havin plenty of money to spend on it instead of buying a s15 and havin no money to spend on it. What really sold me about this car is it has genuine milage, proof it was well taken care of in Japan and a rediculously clean shell. It has 165 000kms which are definately genuine and there is no patches of rust anywhere on it. I will have this back up on a lift to take underbody and arch shots to show how stupidly clean this thing is

It started off by layin out side my girlfriend (JDeeM's) house as i had to wait for insurance to come through, i got fed up of it sittin there so it then went out to Dori-Rorys house where it sat for another week but finally today, THE INSURANCE CAME THROUGH so i drove it home
















So thats the car as it sits outside my back door.

The first thing i did when i got it was throw on the uras front bumper, i know it is well battered but the car came with the standard front bumper and it was fuckin aweful looking. Next was to rip out the UNBELIEVEABLY SHIT HKS dumpvalve and put back in the standard intercooler pipe. The car runs 210% better without the dumpvalve. There is a lot more power and its very steady going up through the revs where with the dumpvalve the power was all over the place


So anyway, tonight when i came home, i landed home to a bit of a treat.

The first few wee bits and pieces i bought











I thought this was class till i went out side and seen MORE :happy) :happy)

My new Cusco 2way diff




My dash dodger bolt in cage




And I had this laying about aswell






Thats all for today, it was a good day in all fairness

On the way i have a dildo gearknob and checkered mats and hopefull i might be swappin the wheels for sumthing with a little more dish

Updates and more pics to come soon

I have the same tails and I love them, way better than the bullshit stock ones. I still wouldn't pick them over the kouki tails you had before though what's up with that??

I think they look alright, bit different, I like them bt






The old seat that is completely fucked - Itl be gettin ripped apart and il prob stick the bride material somewhere. Its still mankin with dirt from the last drift day




The new seat that im currently getting rails for, got this at an UNBELIEVEABLE PRICE thanks to johnny C bt




My two as new cusco coilovers for the back as the two on the back are welded to the high position



and this is the rail off the Bride, i seriously thought this was an oul homemade jobbie before i got it out




Found a few pound down the back of the couch so i went out and bought 20 marlboro and these

SSR PROFESSOR SP1's

Fronts are 17 x 9jj +11
Rears are 18 x 10jj +11




Shes gettin there

Well I bought the SSR's in January and in fairness they needed a hell of a refurb, the dishes were very very dead and the paint was falling off everywhere

So this is what they looked like before hand when i got them



I got them off the car and left them up to Marty Coyle (martycturbo) to refurb.

I took as much time off work as i can to go up and lend a hand

Marty got them split and sent the centres away to be sandblasted

I went at the dishes with scotch bright and ended up taking a lot of the ground in dirt off them






At this point i let Marty do his magic







I sat back with a cigarette and bottle of boost and took in the scenery






So after many many hours this is how the dishes ended up






I was unreal happy with the dishes but i couldnt believe my eyes when he got them painted, the colour was perfect and was exactly what i was after. These are the finished article with the studs all shined up and the wheels screwed back together











I also let the BURE do another drawing on my petrol cap

WIN :happy) :happy) :happy)

So thats pretty much it up to date as of today 07-31-2012

The car is going into the garage on sunday morning. il be completely strippin it again and when its in millions of pieces il decide weather to paint the car and rebuild it or reshell it onto a PS13 (ONEVIA)

The shell is mad clean with zero rust but iv always wanted a onevia so i wanna have some time now to think about it
