CHICKEN WIRE IS GONE TOMMORROW hate the fukin chicken wire .. yeah still have my pink rims off the skyline just need 5stud
nice one man looking good, are you going to take the mesh off the front bumper too? did the budget have to stretch much further if you dont mind me asking?
i have two 4 to 5 stud converter spacers, you should be able to get some to do it cheaply for time being!

Update with no Pictures.
Down in the shed tonight, jacked the rear of the car up to have a look at the Hicas and eye up everyting for fabbing a cheap lock bar..
then had a look at the rear coilovers and low and behold. theres two tein coilovers in the rear , so i have 2 cuscos up front and two teins on the rear.. sounds good to me. also bummpers are off and going to be re-fitted with cable ties after i take off the chicken mesh..
might also be painting the car Matt black in the coming weeks..
and fitting a spare fan for extra cooling just to be on the safe side. and also De-cating the car aswell
so thats it for now. over and out:)
paint it matt black....you on crack....or still in 2009?! weld you ball joints :D
Prodrifter86
05-01-11, 23:59
paint it matt black....you on crack....or still in 2009?! weld you ball joints :D
nahh see thats the thing. no1 else is doing it anymore. so all the better.. matt black loooks beast IMO or NATO green,.. the reason to spray it like that is that i can get 5ltrs of Matt black or Nato green for 25 quid. if i tap the car. i just get an aerosol and paint over it.... and also would look well with my Pink rims .
and ino we're cowboy motorsport. but we're not that bad. haha lol. might cost 20 euro to do the hicas bar...

ah yeah its noting to with anything going. this car has not been driven since it came from Japland on the road so the hicas is in pretty good condition and all. so i want it locked so i can get the car over to WKD to have it tracked adn have the coliover set someway right.. there justed fuked into the yoke. and not set up
yeah cowboy motorsport FTW! hahaha.. wooop wooop. ill have pictures in a few days.

UPDATES:
So i kept my Driftworks Superlow seat rail from the Skyline and modified it to fit the 180sx (bracket closest to the door was 10mm short.)
after that i took my seat out of my bros nova and put it in..
also here at cowboy motorsport we had a brain wave (we get to many :p )
i looked at my Pink rims and realised there multi stud. so popped those on the front adn they look class. i dont think pictures do it justice..
the boot is being prepped on friday and the car will be painted .
So heres some Pictures

Seats look well willy, are they actualy brides?? I see they're both differant
Prodrifter86
05-04-11, 18:45
Thanks for the comments lad.
yeah there genuine brides.. and came out of a car from japan that was broken for parts. id say pete the seat with the bigget shoulders was in the drivers side and the other 1 was a passo seat as its no the widest in the shoulders.
and Simon this is the 5th person so far to ask me to sell. got an offer of a purpley black bride and cash for 1 seat and more swappies but ive being waiting for this day since i was 15 or 16. when i set my eyes on bride seats in a car down in rosegreen so im goin keep em..
lots more work to come with my car.
Is there bride tags on the seats? I would say they are different cause one is taller nd the shape of the seats is different.
Nice though
Prodrifter86
05-04-11, 22:38
theres a sticker with aload of Jap writing on 1 them anyway.. and other shit aswel and yes ino there both different seats. but id say when they were bought etc. 1 was for the driver and the other with less shoulder width was the passenger seat.
yeah cant wait to put them in the car.:)

So a few small things to update..
so i decided to keep my buddyclub P1's and give them a little re-spray to brighten them up.. (dont worry about the green paint on the tyres as there fuked anyway. they will coming off.) these will be the rims for the front of my car. so the nice pink rims will be on the rear.
to get the P1's to fit i needed 5stud. so Wez from WKD imports sorted me out with a set of 4-5stud converters for the front. happy days!! got the buddy club logo made up in black to finish them off.

The engine was sitting on the shed floor for a few months as funds were non exsistant at that time.... after a month or two. i managed to scrape up a few pound and got a new Exciedy 3 Paddle Clutch from Drive 'N' Style Delieverd next day. and was the cheapest i found from all the Places i rang. the standard clutch was not worth a shite in a drift car and whilst the engine was out it was best to do it then...
I also made this vid during that time [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CNQHyrJ1Vs]"Not Losing Hope" 180sx Short Film - YouTube (http://http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/180sx%20Drifto%20Project/270684_241410719219386_100000513789307_993787_1018 020_n.jpg)

After a Week, the car was ready to be put back together and was then ready to be run in. and all the fueling checked including running the car in octaine boost... i got it home a few days ago and took it for its first spin. and i cudnt stop smiling. i havent tried to drift it yet but even just cruisng for a spin up the road was awesome, i just coudnt stop smiling. it may only be running Standard Bhp but fuck it i love it

she wont be getting more low for awhile id say! going to leave it the way it is!!
Cheers dude! im gonna need it haha
serious tom
21-10-11, 01:43
I just took it for granted my coilovers were somewhat lowered, but as I had bad offset, skinny 17's on the back I didn't really realise how high it was.. I got home, jacked it up and they were up as high as they could go.! Never lowered.
So the moral of the story is.. you might think its 'ok' but lower her the fuck :cool:
Good to get her back man, now go do some skids.
ALSO; Have you hammered in the arch liner/lip thingy which would be rubbing up again the inside of the fronts on full lock?
Prodrifter86
21-10-11, 01:58
haha well im going to leave it that height until i drive it a few times!
and yes the hammer came out and its sorted and not catching :D
Feck that your car looks well it's a drift project not a low and stanced project there is enough of clowns with low and stanced cars that don't drift them.
My advice get Tyres and some seat time and have fun

Get some seat time in, then worry about the aesthetics at a much later date.

Prodrifter86
13-10-12, 23:22
SOOOOO! I havent updated this in forever as this stage! since this was updated we shal go from there...
the car was done as for my funds were extremely tight.. so i did the caseys Memorial day last year... managed to qualify into the top16 (got knocked out straight away ) but was really fun!...
http://http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/402968_358017287558728_707333882_n.jpg
after that we did maybe one or two other private days and i put the car into the shed....
I then in last year in March i went :
http://http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/180sx%20Drifto%20Project/american-flag.jpg
to visit the otherhalf for a few months... and what a great place it is. the drifting and people i met including Riskey Devils /Junkhouse was unreal.. cant wait to go back in a few weeks time.
she we both flew back to ireland middle of the summer and finally got myself a proper full time job.... the minute i got home i went out to the car , got some tyres on and headed over to caseys yard in tullow for some practice , been very rusty aswell. but i was dieing to drive the car. before this we fixed a small boost leak which was there from the Waste gate , and also a coolant leak. the small boost leak fixed it was like driving a different car.

My plan now is to work until xmas head to the USA again. do some drifto there. come home start work again. do some practice . some new bigger media stuff with people and our own team. and maybe give a hand at a round of PD or IDC or watever it will be..... using new team colours. aswel. the styling wil be different a little going my own aswel..

Update time!!!
So I sold the SSR Professors to a mate as i wasnt feeling them on the car. so lucky enough my all time fave rim came up for sale. so i bought a pair of Work Equips from Chris Martina . they were painted badly black (sorry chris ) :P so i threw some paint stripper on. and brought them back.

As my work for the last 2months has been 7 days a week 12 hour shifts . i didnt have time to anything really. took the car out once in tullow and that was it. so instead of giving the refurbing of the works a go myself i opted to leave them to good friend Brendan Gordon from Team Chihuahua to have them Polished and refurbed! Brendan only had them for about 20minutes and he sent me this picture. Cant wait to see them really polished and finished.

LATEST UPDATE!
So over the winter... i got my Work Equips back off Brendan gordon.... because i didnt give him the full lips he didnt get to polish the sides but wil be going back down in a month to get finished for good.....
have to say they are pretty dam sweet. also we flipped a centre around to see how mega it would be. but couldnt run that offset for fronts.....
As you can see from the picture. Brendans work is really the best around its flawless.... he has been a good friend of mine for long time now. so he in know he is a guy you can trust with your rims..

Next up was tinting the rear ligths. What a Cu*t of a job . with the lights being the same a kouki. the bumps of the circle (if that makes any sense) was very hard to get the tint onto. really would be better Sprayed. so they wil be fine for a bit..
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/180sx%20Drifto%20Project/75381_567217186638736_1929447488_n_zps45eb84c7.jpg
I also think i have a problem with collecting parts.

So i popped the car down to my Sponsor and good friends at David Byrnes Auto Garage in Wexford to have the hydro mounted as our Welder is on holidays for a bit...
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/180sx%20Drifto%20Project/74121_574549669238821_1877276003_n_zps02342c7d.jpg
So after going over the best place i wanted the handbrake.. we found the perfect spot for myself. and a savage job the lads did
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/180sx%20Drifto%20Project/65866_577191382307983_936058225_n_zps9da7403a.jpg

So after that i just popped over the road to good friend Dan Moorhead to pick up a set of DW Braided Hydro Lines from Wkd Imports. the best thing you can buy when it comes to hydro's!
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/180sx%20Drifto%20Project/265148_576174252409696_2019396158_n_zps47909021.jp g
So with no pictures the Hydro is now in and working! . so some testing with that soon.
So after we sealed the front wheels. i noticed a small leak. very small at that. so i went on a romantic drive with my Work Rim into the tyre garage..... :tongue2:
http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac114/Prodrifter86/180sx%20Drifto%20Project/319808_578891422137979_477967301_n_zpsa206edc4.jpg
So after the tyre came off we noticed we just didnt put enough sealer on ! so its now drying in the kitchen!
Also to end i have this brand new Hks turbo sitting at home. must pop it into the car soon aswell.....
So mondello on the 10th testing next week.... might have to take a hammer to the front arches for a bit more clearence on the front wheels! But shur! be grannnnd!

So I haven't updated this in ages. anyway back to January / feb I think. I decided to take the car out to mondello for the first time ever. and I have to say I had a ball at it... it was really wet and slippy but still a lot of fun. even though having shitty standard brakes which made my hydro not work . I felt I did well enough..

looking good dude!
as for the tinting paint, all you gotta do is use a meduim grade compound, that should make them clear red, thats waht i had to do with mine
but the red will fade out so i recommend using red tinting film, a lot handier and wont fade
Looks well dude fair play. Colour looks savage

Yeah I had the film on it. but because there actually Lexus style kouki lights using film tint become bubbly and not smooth because of the bumps.. so we tried the paint. ill try that compound so I never new about that. I don't want them that red they look horrible for the look im after. I don't want to buy genuine kouki lights just yet until I get the cage sorted and what not..
