Bought this a couple weeks ago off mike1jz on here.. it was sitting up for a while the bodykit had battle scars and the paint was tired.. so the decision was made to repaint it luckily for me mike had new bodykit to go with the car making it easy for me repair it.. took the car to the bodyshop a week ago and this is how it turned out..
Wheels need a bit of work fitment wise - but looks to be a very clean example
any nice rare tasty bits on it? :D
Looks gorgeous man fair play , seamie was tellin me a friend of his was comin down to Galway looking at it ! Did it need much paint work ?
Thats some difference man I was with mike the night we dropped it down to you, fair play it looks a totally different car now nice to see cars being restored and not broke ha!!
nice job man
need to lower the car.. its standard apart from exhaust, front mount and cusco diff.. might sound abit thick but how would yoy make wheels fit better...Quote:

nice! good work! im so so glad that people are now fixing stuff up and making nice road cars quicker than stevo can buy them :P
A 98 180! Mad! Cool looking car too! Lower it and that should complete it all! Wheels look very underestimated under it at that height. Keep us updated on it lad!
Well ware kid,, looks well!!
Set of good coilovers
Once you lower it the wheels will naturally camber in at the top
Try that first t ya see how it looks - can also put on stretched tires so they don't catch the arches
Very nice car again :)
Looks sweet, just buy a set of coil overs, I'd recommend k-sport as there cheap and can go very low but if you can afford it spend good money on coil overs.
Yeah it seems that people are starting to restore and import again. Fair play man! And don't be afraid to ask questions. You'll get the piss taken out of you at times because there are some smart arses on here but not everyone on here knows the ins and outs of their cars and it's the only way to learn (apart from searching on here and google).
Definetly didn't expect it to be done that quick was a shame to see it the way it was with such low mileage, as said a good set of coilovers now and your done, get a set of hsd coilovers good quality and fairly cheap money, again fair play man!Quote:
