View Full Version : my 180.. go go S-body!
been on the hunt for a car ever since i sold the old faithfull Soarer.. didnt exactly know what i wanted, was considering a twin cam and then after pro drift the weekend i decided that an sbody was the way forward.. haha did i just say that...
so anywho picked it up yesterday looking all gay and shit, HUUUGE nismo stickers down the sides of both doors but the car was straight enough. i then called into jay and he insisted that i put on his 10j and 9j kranzes, i didnt arguee and now he is not getting them back.. it is not mint but is clean enough for what i wanted, this will be a road and track goer so i can get some seat time and then hope to compete next year all going well...
anywho pics..
and i knoooow it needs more low but it has no coilys in the rear.. daum!

Please don't put on a type x bumper!!! The world needs more 180's with those uk spec or zenki bumpers whatever you call them. I'd also take off the wheels, they look a bit big, some nice old school 16's would be really nice with they way it looks now.
Really nice looking yoke, love 180's in dark colours!

I agree with above, I think smaller wheels would be nicer, 17's, and grids for cheapness like Kenny said!!
