Hey everyone! I live in Osaka, just up the road from my good friend Lewis. I'm a huge Nissan S Chassis/R chassis and Toyota JZX/GX/MX fan. I work at an office, basic 9-5 job, gets me through the day. Usually out terrorizing Osaka streets at night, or running some touge with my team Cooldown late into the night. Everytime I buy a new car, I'll add it to the list on this post. Spoiler: Starting balance - 20000V$ 1994 Nissan Silvia S14 Club K's 1990 Nissan Laurel C33 Medalist 1991 Nissan 180SX RPS1

thanks maneeeee.

Got the fronts mounted on a set of 225/35/17 Bridgestone Potenza RE002's at a tire shop in Hiroshima, but they ran out of the time to do the rears so I'm rocking the Style 15's for now. Adjusted the camber plates a little more and it rubs slightly, will need to tweak. Might do a massive burnout and waste the rear tires or be smart keep them as drift spares. Hm.

FamousMan

Daaaaaamn boy! Can't wait to see the rears on there. And I vote massive burnout!!!!!
Also really digging that rear plate holder. 326 everything!

Come over and let's go to JdmSly's place, then I'll do a massive burnout 🙂)

So today I was busy playing the fitment game with my 180. I bought a set of CR Ultimates (17x10 +5 and 17x10 +0) and I needed to trim my fenders even more and hammer even more on the subframe.

I hate to look at the rear quarters without the KPower overs on because it reminds me of the murder I had to commit to a clean Type X body 🙁

But I did install a sweet carbon diffuser that was made up by Lewis but never actually run because he sold his 180 before he got to finish it.

And eventually, I managed to fit these wheels.

Quality fender cutting.

YEAH DUDE

JdmSly

Looks so damn good

FamousMan

Whatcha doin with the old wheels? O🙂

JdmSly

That is pure porn to my eyes!

marcus915

Thanks!

Finally decided to work on the 1JZ - took all the good parts off the 180SX 1JZ and swapped them here. But Henry fabricated a new intercooler setup with his new welder. A flipmount setup so it wouldn't be destroyed as easily if I went off track at speed.

Going to spice this thing up a bit afterwards.

Driftphantom

Man that chaser and 180 are stunning! I'll have to look you up and come see them if I ever take a trip out to Japan

klucifers

Damn those futuras are on point.

Lagano

Chaser is looking good! Good idea with the intercooler setup. The intercooler is still a little too low, but this is the low life, right? 😃

marcus915

Yup the intercooler is still a little low 🙁 But at least there's less chance of breaking the pipes in a low to medium off track excursion, worse that could happen is bending the cooler.

And thanks Driftphantom! Your Bora has inspired an idea for my Chaser 😉

I picked up some OE Tourer V aero. Threw them on the car this morning and oh man.

Had to run a single blast pipe setup though, the twin pipes I was using didn't clear the bumper.

Also dialed in the fitment some more in the rear. Running -5 degrees now.

Driftphantom

I thought the Avante bumpers looked great but this is on a completely different level! That Tourer V aero really gives this car a more sporty feel. and that fitment is on point 😉 you make me want a JZX no joke!

marcus915

Should totally get one if you can get it past the US border hahahaha.

Driftphantom

don't you tempt me hahaha. I could probably get one from Canada.. hmmm 🙂)

I mean, I don't really post about my Evo anymore, as I locked it away just today. But, I'm sure we could find you a nice little JZX. Especially in my area...
Come up sometime, we can look together.
