I've already sourced a few perspective chassis out, we're gonna peep a 180 shell and maybe a MA67 from a guy we found on Minkara.

We're not rich like you that's why we had to pool our money together! DID Global has the hook ups for all us foreigners! Only V$936 (¥102,000) a month for this 70 m² mansion!....I mean apartment...

marcus915

I'll look into making a move into Osaka..hmmm. Once you two get set up I'll hit you up with some possible chassis.

conkaa

Looks like Osaka is crackin' I may actually need help getting a shell moved maybe even storage or referral to cheap storage? Anything that's below V$100 monthly (about ¥11,000) the shell I checked out is super clean unfortunately Connor and I didn't have much time so a quick sus and this cellie pic.

All the interior is there as well but it is in boxes. The dash is insanely clean which is one thing I always like to have in a SX. It's a 1997 180SX Type-R, has current plates until next year and only has 47,000_kms, clean title and current rego.

The seller is asking ¥510,000 which is rougly~ V$4700 Pretty fair I think for a '97 with built suspension set up.

That is one sweet looking 180 man! I wish I could get one here stateside

Thanks I actually just got another shell for V¥22000~ which is V$200~ whatever the exchange rate is today. Had a sweet differential I wanted a HLSD out of a S15 and axles. I'll snap pics later it's a Type-III.

Also have some random pieces here and there, the chassis has high kms so I actually am willing to cut sections out of it if anyone has quarter damage, willing to front clip it but keeping SR.

conkaa

hey i finally got a car!

pretty much: its a (painfully) stock 1989 Nissan Silvia (s13) and one of the bset deals ive ever seen, 5500 V$ (whaaaaaa?)
it does have some dings and dents, mainly on the front and back bumpers, but other than that its straight and clean

im super stoked ahhhh
(ps dont tell softee huehuehue)

Driftphantom

Being that its a 89, this has a ca18 right? It has its fair share of dings and dents but over this is one sweet looking ride man! Also I wont tell 😉

conkaa

yeah (unfortunately) and its almost dead too ;_; so will need to do a swap, but thats ok, famous man has some engines coming in soon ish, so that should be ok! 😃

FamousMan

God i can't get over that color man! such a great pick up.
I can move in with you guys if it'll save some extra cash!

Also have 6 engine stuffed in the back of this thing!

marcus915

patiently waiting for Ryan to come by with the van so I can tow my 180SX to Hoodsaka. Can't wait to meet up with the crew.

conkaa

@famousman, YES COME PARTY
@marcus COME PARTY TOO

little update, picked up a new front bumper, just a stock(ish) k's bumper, i believe it was from a 92? either way, its got a lip on it, what a score at V$75
also got some amber corner lights from Up garage after i picked the car up, they set me back about V$125, so yeah,

haven't mounted the bumper yet, but the lights are on 😃

man i need to be low already, anyone have ideas for what kind of coils/springs/cut-ies i should go for?

Driftphantom

Them ambers are so nice, and that bumper and lip combo is gonna look sweet when you get it mounted up! As for coils, I was looking into getting some 326power, maybe look into those as well?

conkaa

@drift, ill look into it

ok so its been a while haha,
not alot has changed besides i ended up cutting my springs (~~because im a racthet hoe~~)
and got some rims,
possibly the cleanest set of volk CV pros ive ever seen
specs are 17x9 +10 fronts and 17x9.5 +5's

all up cost me about 700 with tyres, not too bad

ill probably start looking for coils soon, so if anyone is selling....?
