Sup, guys.
Do you remember my 180SX?
Some news about it. Now it looks fresh as mint, because i fully (almost fully) rebuilded it.
The worst things in SX exterior were fender flares. So the first thing i did was fender removement. After the fender removement i understood that front quaterpanels are rusty and the paint is scratched. I was really dissappointed, because i didnt want to weld the quaterpanels and i was sure that there arent any quaterpanels from SX in Ukraine and i will have to instal quaterpanels from LADA. Oh, I hope you know that LADA parts are the main multitools for owners of old cars in Russia and Ukraine. I went home and while i have been laying on a sofa and drinking beer, my friend sent me a pm in Whatsapp. He sent me a link on the local JDM forum. When i opened it I simply couldnt believe my eyes.A person from Kyiv called Robert was selling parts from Silvias and SX's. He has a JDM junkyard. I quickly took keys from E34 (despite the fact, that i was drunk of course :) ) and went to Robert. When I came there I found full Sileighty face with Aero bumper, Kouki taillights, D-max hood and copy of 326 Power spoiler. It spent a lot of money but i was flying high because of my new purchase. After I came home I ordered new rims for this exterior setup. I chose RS Watanabe R16x9J front and 10J rear. While i've been waiting for my rims to be delievered, my car was sent to a paint workshop. My father offered me to paint it white and i agreed. Im totally satisfied with this new colour, it looks clean. Fortunately I traded my 180sx front on Bride Bucket seat and Nardi Steering wheel and sold VS-KF's. They are not bad, but they are not stylish enough. And the last elements of style were splitters and diffuser. I found them on facebook for extremely low price. They are from fiberglass, so the quality is poor, but I dont care.



Total:
S13 front - 250$
Spoiler 326 POWER - 150$
D-Max Hood - 200$
RS Watanabe - 750$
Splitters and diffuser - 50$
__________
1400$

By the way yesterday i made my E34 more stocky.
I bought orange side indicators, stock headlight, rear bumper holder and stock rims.
Now i'm waiting for coilovers and rims.
