8 years.. wow, some time to hold onto a car for, especially a 180sx.. looks to be well looked after anyway!
I can't count how many cars i've had within a year and a half... a twincam, 2 s14a's, 2 altezza's, 2 bmws and an STi subaru.. and in 8 years gone through about 30+ cars off top of my head :evil::shocked:

Think I was behind ya in mullingar last night car looks and sounds well.. New wheels??
saw this in stivs place few weeks ago them dished GTrs look mint on the back :D
Was that you jdm jimmy, ?? What were the odds of the two of us meetin at the round about at the same time!!! Lol. Even with the noise of my own yoke, I could still here the 1jz in the back ground. I was just finished spit shinein the bitch and said I'd take it for a drive. I can't hang around town for too long because I don't have a full window, if you know what I mean.
saw this in stivs place few weeks ago them dished GTrs look mint on the back :D
Ya I had up at stivs place there too sort out a fuel pressure regulator problem,, the feckin thing seized it self..:mad:Got it sorted. Fitted a 2way diff while it was up there. I should have got 18x12 they would have filled them arches way better.
