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.

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.
