Project SR
Well im bored so i feel like posting my build haha
I picked up a real 180SX for 500 bucks when I was living in Japan. Riped the engine and drive train out and shipped it home piece by piece.
So you guys over in Japan it its possible to bring back an SR for less than $600 shipping.
all ya gotta do is break it down into 70 LBS shipments
Sorry most of these pics suck I was using my Camera Phone
So it all started with a dream
4 cans of carb cleaner and 2 hours of using a Dremel
Visualizing the Dream ^_^
Transmission was too heavy to I had to break it down.
Everything Tagged and Bagged
Waiting for Shipment
So my parts made it back safely
and tranny put back together cleaned and painted
Moved into the new aprtment..let the building begin
Picked up an S-14 BB Turbo with Peak Performace mainifold, Dump pipe,HKS Actuator, oil line, Oil return in Okinawa ^o^b
Also Picked up a Pulsar GTI-R Turbo for free ^_^
The Diff i pulled from my 180SX turned out to be a shimmed VLSD
Balanced and Polished Crank Shaft, Eagle H Rods, Wiseco Pistons, Tomei and Nismo Bearings, Pulsar GTI-R Main Crank Studs, Power Enterprise 1.5 mil H/G
Beginning the resurrection
Installin Crank and Pistons & Rods
Installation, Installed the Engine and running on the 1st day, Driving on the 2nd
Say ahhhhh
Ahhhh Much better 2.0>2.4
Picked up this chassis for $400
but needs alot of work
Rattle Canned
More to come......
