Court

So court was delayed until today... rolled up at 1:20pm and went into the court room as you do.
Got 3 points on my license and a suspension for a year :/
Kinda ended my "holiday" really. Gonna be selling the Beem tomorrow hopefully and heading back to Japan again, I've stayed pretty much as long as I was saying.



Gave it a mini detail and wash inside and out, got it ready for sale in general. Kinda sad to see it go but it was only temporary anyway. I'm sending the CST's to my house in Tokyo and the car will be sold on its original wheels.



Have a few things to be done back in Tokyo...excited to get back and started on them I guess!

They gave you a 1 year suspension for reckless driving? wtf! sry that your visit ended that way!

They got me on everything they could tbh, just the way the Irish system is against so called "boy racers"

# Zero : Shitt Son. Shame you got banned for a year but the UK really hates any type of reckless driving.. Especially speeding. Least you wasnt hurt man
I don't really mind honestly, I wasnt staying for long anyway but...yeah
They charged me on everything they could really. I've gotten caught many times before so it isn't new but they had previous offences on me from some time ago, so that's why I got a 1 year suspension.
oh well...just a bit of craic I guess.. :P

Fack maneeee !
That was one of the reasons why I went back to Japan

We were nexus, Dr.Zoom and I in a Car meet, and I had at that time a 180sx with a 2jz-gte swap, I started to make a fool of myself thinking hoonigan, to skid all over the place, revving, making "shots" with the 2 step, all very well until the police arrived, I was disqualified for 6 months and I was fined 450 pounds for "Reckless Driving" and another 150 pounds for "Rioting"

I sold the 180 with the discount of the fines, and I went back to Japan

It's funny because the police looked for excuses to take my car to the lot of seized cars, that if the swap is not legal, that if that exhaust system does not pass the VTI (vehicle technical inspection), that if this, that if the other, and I with all the papers that everything was legal, next time, the hoonigan will zoom! , I do not want another fine for reckless driving and rioting! Hahaha

I remember goes back to Eengland a long ago, I blaming black ice. I was driving 350Z, I was on the roundabout and my rear tyre lose grips because it on black ice patch and my 350Z went drifting and I try to get straight meanwhile I past the undercover BMW police car then he turn on blue lights and I pull over and I got fines for careless driving. I tries to explain to him but the pig never listen and he thinks I was excusing, I have been complained but they agreed was my fault, I like wtf. Moved to Japan and never come back England because british police are full of corrupt. X-(

Sorry about your banned driving on British but good thing you go back Japan and you can driving on Japan because your driving banned on BRITISH licensed, not Japan. :)

Ha! I remember that S13 from it's sick run at Ebisu! And it's sound.
The last days I wondered how many cars you own, haha! Now doubt about the Tiko. Such a sweet little K-Car. I just wonder why you run a full license plate on that.
That Laurel with those Uras wheels looks great!

Thanks! I love chirp bov's, its necessary on this tbh
and the Tico doesn't have K-Car plate because it isn't a k-car. It has a 1 litre engine instead of 660cc so I have to use a full plate.
I like the Exsol's on the Laurel too, it'll look a lot better too once I get the D-Max kit on.

Yours is a lot nicer though, mine on the other hand....not so much. But it was cheap.

New car

so like I said in the last post, I got a new car.
You might have seen it if you looked in the used cars classifieds but I have bought another 180SX. This one will be a restoration-ey type project, so it's nothing too crazy.

This is a 1996 Nissan 180SX Type-R, so it has a blacktop SR20DET with Chuki styling. This example has had a pretty rough life, the paints peeling, bodywork is rough, it's missing some interior and was used as a drift car most of it's life. I picked this up for Y270,000 from Yahoo auctions with the help of Saletl, he found the car. I plan to restore it and modify it a small bit, nothing too big.




As you can see, its had a rough life...it was shittily resprayed to black over the original FN2 Blue *i think
I will most likely get it resprayed into FN2 blue again anyway, it looks like a pretty nice color.




Its currently equipped with:
~Blacktop SR20DET, misfiring and running like shit so hopefully its just bad plugs, hopefully its not blown.
~Brown interior which is rareish iirc
~Kinda stripped interior
~Bolt in rollcage (for sale)
~Bride Brix replica (for sale)
~Top Secret steering wheel (for sale)
~White gauges and Defi Turbo gauge
~Shit wheels (for sale)
~HKS Air filter
~Front mount intercooler

I know its just another 180sx but I'm excited to start restoring it to what I want to have it like. I'm also looking for some parts for this car so check the used parts classifieds.
Build starts soon.

money

180SX: -V$2,500
Sold wheels: +V$1,000
Remaining: V$28,864

Making Progress

So nothing big, just a little update about the SR in my newish 180.

I've spent my free time in the last few days swapping my broke SR20DET with another SR20DE from Saletl. I bought this engine a few days ago for V$900 and also bought some Enkei 92's for V$500 from radcoon. I'm keeping the SR n/a but with a twist, so this car won't be turbo.

I had brought the new SR with me from Art of Wheel after one of MACKAY's friends delivered it to me from Osaka. It fit suprisingly well into the ever-reliable Tico.



It was relatively simple to swap the SR since its the same engine, so just plug and play.





After swapping the engines I put on the Enkeis since the old wheels had slow punctures. Also removed the tails since I have custom white tails from my old 180sx that I bought from Marcus.



Now I just have to put the front end back together and it should almost be ready to run. Next up is interior.
Money:
Enkei 92: -V$500
SR20DE: -V$900
Engine parts: -V$1,400

Remaining: V$26,064
