Well as i'll put up in the members cars section in a minute , im after buying myself a 180sx for the track .
Now all i need is a trailer to tow it around with.
Any one got any idea what is the minimum size trailer id get away with for a 180, and more importantly has anyone got one for sale.

thanks
ed

Sorry for the delay in replying chris , but 2k is a bit steep for me at the moment.
I'm still curious as to the size of the trailer ill need for a 180sx though ...
I presume 14ft x 6.5ft would suffice

for comfort that is the size you want if your lookn for a transporter on the other hand you would get away with a double or tri axle flat bed indespension or ifvor willams in a 6ft most of them come with fairly long ramps to and theres a good few on done deal all the time

best off just hiring one out lad if your not willing to spend a couple of grand on one. you'd be lucky to get an ifor williams or brian james second hand for under 1500 you'd be lucky to get one for that imo

and if your renting you don't have to store it

do fill us in on the price of it
do they have brakes and lights etc.??

a lad i know quoted me 500 qiud to build me a trailer with no brakes or electrics

your best off buying a good brand like ifor williams or brian james they stand the test of time and are a bit of comfort if you plan on taking it on some trips. Much better in the long run IMO worth the money

From what i can make out , they have brakes , suspension, lights and jockey wheel ..and a few guys on Octane have towed them and thought they were ok ..
So i think thats what i will go for

They're a grand trailer, I used them before, skinnyphats has one aswell, grand yoke. The only problem is that if you car is very low you cannot open the door because it hits off the box above the wheels.
