I don't want to spend too much money on the engine yet, i will be swapping it soon anyway.

title v2

So like I said yesterday I would be fitting the bodykit completely.
I finished fully fitting it after work and then checked over the car since me and Lagano are going to Ebisu tomorrow.

Drove it home after and I am kinda running out of space on my drive. With 3 cars it's kinda....... cramped.
Especially since I'm in Tokyo.

The 180 should be getting paint sometime after Ebisu.
I'm gonna be swapping my 1JZ in so it gives me a chance to fully gut the car and respray it.
Really happy with how it looks as of now. If anyone is selling Bride/Recaro bucket seats let me know, I'm looking for some.

I've bought coilovers for the Skyline, they won't be fitted for a while though. Once the 180 is started I probably will start working on it, looking for a nice exhaust from UpGarage to fit later on too.

Spoiler:
Coilovers: -V$357.
Remaining: V$7,591

Whats cheaper than some pipes and a muffler

Not that money is a problem, it's just that my main focus is the 180SX and until I have that where I want it the Skyline won't really be touched. If I want to do an exhaust upgrade i probably will go that route.

.....and i lowered it

Bbaaaaaccccckkkkk aaaggggaaaaiiinnnn

So the past week me and Lagano have been swapping my 180's broken-ass SR with a 1JZ that I bought from Maikeru. It's not even mounted yet, but I know what I have to cut and have a fair idea what it will look like when it's in.

I took the chance to get it painted again while the engine was out, so I'm getting it painted a shade darker black with a purple bay/door combo. This'll make way for something later on.

Second coat of primer on in this shot.

On to the R.
So while the 180 is getting painted I bought some shit for my R.
I bought JIC Racing coilovers (paid in my last post) and a Mine's carbon trunk lip for V$316, both from UpGarage.
Makes it look a small bit more aggressive but....the fitment tho...
If your selling any 18" rims hmu. Tyres or not.

I also detailed my interior so it doesn't smell like a damn hotbox. Looks way better now.
Spoiler:
Start: V$7,591
Mine's lip: V$316
Saletl D-Max hood: V$100
2x Paycheck: V$1,310
Lagano mention: V$250
Remaining:V$8,735

Definitely will put the advans on the 34. Stock wheel gap is insane lol
Caption is from an old game, 2003 specifically and was the first proper tuning game. Sold 15 mil copies.
And thanks 🙂
