just read the whole lad..
fair play to ya for putting all this work into it and im with the lads
do all the basics first, bolt on bolt of shit, set it up right and give it hell!
stick with it man :wink:
Sorry about the lack of updates guys, hopefully ill have something decient over the next few weeks. The evenings are getting longer and iv use of a garage and ramp at the weekends to ill be able to a few extra bits.
One update I have is that the car will finally be painted, its gonna be white for the short while but iv a few colours in mind (Magenta and Turquoise are the main colours) but its gonna be a rattle can job as iv no access to a spray gun :(
Well guys I'm sorry to say that I kinda gave up on this one. It was a combination of a few things really.
1. The drift comp in Portlaoise went awful as the car wasn't set up correctly.
2. Working late and living too far away from where the car is stored and it being too dark to see what I'm doing.
3. Stripping the car and building it again would make me feel that I'm working backwards and the last year+ was a total waste of time.
So (and I'll get alot of abuse for this) iv decided to start again
I stripped the car of what I needed to build another car.
A couple of late nights in my girlfriends garage and out everything came.

And that's how she sits now, ready for the new owner to do something magical with her.

She was my first rwd car, she sat in the corner of Japanise Performance before Will_c bought it and it sat in the corner of his shed before I brought it back to life (and also started a build thread that annoyed Rob Daly). I did learn alot wit her and will know what to do and what not to do in future (like run 15" on the front and 17" on the back:o)
The next car will look a whole lot cleaner as the multi colour of the 180sx was kind of an eyesore :o
The car iv chosen is one alot of people will know.

I'm looking forward to this already.
Thanks to everyone that helped me with this build.
