    Default My 180sx drift car build

    Was talking about doing this ages so I taut I'd give it a go. Have this car about 7 months bought the car off a fella from Galway I'm not even gonna start about him! Well the car was surpost to have this n that Steel bottom end etc.. Car has come along way from then.
    Gonna show the progress of the car so far and then update it as I go along
    This is when I bought it
    Got it home did one track day then sent it down to Richard Bradley to check it over and remap it he found it had a butchered piston that had bein Badley fixed before and everyting was standard. So I bit the bullet and fully forged it and needed a new block as the other one was fooked and got him to stick a nistune in too. (have pics of the build il get them of Richard soon) got it back and fuck me It scared me how fast it was me Richard did a brilliant job! cheers Richard
    Here is my first day at Mondello

    After one or too days out in the dry the box went and then another sr box whentso I went down the rb25 route such a cunt of a job but well worth it!




    Car was pulling to left and didn't feel right so I dropped the car to chris Barnett and he aligned it for me and extended my with bones etc did a great job too thanks chris
    Here is some lock and more to b done to it
    Car was dull at front so give it a quick coat of paint I had lying around


    Widend my wings a little

    I relocated my screamer pipe too it was way too quiet at the ground lol

    Give it a wash befor b.c

    This is the car as it sits now

    I get a spec list up soon
