View Full Version : My 180
Well, sold the FC because I didn't drive it much and had a daily but saw this the day after and picked it up the next day, I just can't get away from modding cars.
Picked this up with a cracked and leaking mani, which has since been removed, fixed and refitted. It has a rebuilt engine, HKS GT-RS but with stock afm and injectors, at 7psi it put out 217hp if I remember correctly. Usual bolt ons like FMIC, Pod, Turbo-back.
Exterior wise its stockish, with lowered springs and type-X taillights.
This is what it looks like now

On order are:
Z32 afm, 660cc injectors and various other bits and pieces and it will go in for a retune soon

looks un-molested which is great! nice set of coilovers, rims and clear guard indicators and will look like a perfect 180. Too many people these days ricing them up with bodykits, they are already a beautifully styled car.

2 reasons you cannot sell them..
1) they look BOMBED on your car
2) i want them, and i have enough rims as it is. :P

um $2500ish prob with tyres but they may be a lil shagged. My car is now a dedicated drifter and i dont wanna hurt these puppies, will go back to 17s but will be going for something unique ;)
anyway sorry for thread hijack, nice base you got there man can see it getting out of control like mine did :(
lol outta control... pffft :P
got some rims sorted for the car, will have to wait for them to come in now
did someone say low?
http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo353/R3N/low.jpg
have now got injectors, afm, put in an engine damper, wired in the boost gauge. general tidy up with cooler piping etc, runs much better now. i think it had boost leaks before. hoping to get a retune in next week.
http://i391.photobucket.com/albums/oo353/R3N/low.jpg
Hell yes. Can you still turn your wheels? If so, not low enough yet..... ;)

You know I love you, my little Asian friend. I think rims and kit is needed asap, not a fan of stock 180's. Hope to see some decent power though, I will have to come for a spin.

c-west ftl... and i rememeber your old car behind me on my first cruise stretchhhhh.
anyway only have a pair of the grenades for now because the other 2 are sort of MIA so these will do for now.
retune is getting pushed back... at least until i get back from syd, delay is making me consider sneaking in some cams but still undecided at the moment
hks hiper-d's are on the way from japland, didn't want to pay for overnight parts spec so will be a few weeks wait.
also eyeing another set of rims ;) 4 stud love

what spring rates on the teins ?
erm 8/7 from memory or 7/6
put coilovers in yesterday and played around with adjustment today, lots of fucking around cos i haven't done this before but the rears will probably get raised a tad and need to get the guards rolled. also need my other pair of grenades!

Sometimes all you need is some bombed wheels on stock body to get a good look happening.

that's me in the reflection getting my squat on.
no its not tuned yet, it will be tuned when it gets tuned. leave me alone already!
on the bump stops to be that low?
Lonewolf
13-03-2010, 06:00 PM
where the fuck are the front wheels? :D
on the bump stops to be that low?
rears are on the lowest thread of the coilovers, front is about 10mm from bottom. will raise it a tad as exhaust just scrapes everywhere as is
where the fuck are the front wheels? :D
i find myself asking the same question!
mitchy
13-03-2010, 07:19 PM
when you get the front rims, that should raise it a bit anyway, due to larger diameter.
what size tyres on the back kuek, 225? a liiiiiittle bit wider so it fills the guard, then it would look perfect!
love the bronze on black, especially at that height. :P
215 :D those are meant to go on the front, will get 225 or 235s for the rears when the other pair comes in
mitchy
13-03-2010, 08:00 PM
hah, no wonder...
235's would probably fill it perfect, and dont look gay on a 9"
bit of an update, car went into hyperdrive last week for a tune. had a few runs in because something bad happened. i stuffed up with the cams install and the cam gear came loose. thankfully during idle so they shut it off and found what was wrong. originally thought it was a snapped camshaft. bit of a setback but looking at the positive side, will now be running a metal hg when i pull it all down. will be a bitch of a job no doubt.
last power run was 235hp at 7psi
mitchy
02-04-2010, 12:56 AM
metal HG = wind lots of boost in. :D
