So It Begins


180SX Update


This is screen heavy




Over the weekend I got to work on the 180SX, I bought a 5 lug conversion, new brake discs and pads, 350Z/G35 Brembo brake calipers and new brake lines, I got some new stretched Falken Tires wrapped on the Works, I also got some black paint and some tape and painted the brakes black and kept the red Brembo writing.

I wanted to work on the car myself but since I am inexperienced, I called a buddy of mine to help me with the install just in-case.

Was to lazy to do a shop screen.



But I gotta say it took us awhile, and by us I meant me, but it paid off, next week I'm gonna have the wheels aligned and balanced.

But for now it looks much better lowered.








The rims clear the brakes and discs enough so I don't think I would have any problems.



Now that is what was meant for a post on Monday, I've made a few changes for the car during the week.




The Slow Metamorphosis


So as I stated I got some more goodies for the 180SX, firstly seats Red NRG RECARO styled seats, they were cheap, look good and are pretty comfortable and I just had to cop em.



I know they aren't special but they fit, next on the goodies list a fiberglass Wangan style wing that needs to be painted, a Royal Grip neo-chrome wheel, and a NISMO center cap and a NRG hub to go with it, oh and a cheeky neo-chrome tint on the headlights and some new slaps, I'm not done with the beautification just yet, I sill have new rear lights to buy and I want to wrap the 2 tone style on the car.







Oh and before I forget LZ x Garage Moon Mats




I went all out on the AESTHETICS of the car making it look the part but I will have to work on the motor soon, the most I'll do for now is a new exhaust system with blast pipes, then maybe semi build the engine and add a bigger turbo. The vision for this car is more of a sleeper status, I'm making the car unsuspecting af, so the car will slowly blossom into my Magnum Opus.


Little Feature:


The Corrado has taken a little back seat I still drive it but right now it's neatly tucked in my garage.



The VR6 is coming soon, and I will on purpose blow the PG G60 just to get it in.

The Mustang is at a V8 shop getting the BOSS intake manifold installed and I should be getting the car back next week so I'm exciting for it's first major mod.



The RSX will be brought back soon enough.
