Hello i was just wondering what are the differences between a 180sx shell and a 200sx shell no engine or running gear? I know the sun roof which is a obvious one but what other differences are there?! Thanks in advance!

I think they're the same. What's this sunroof difference you've found?

About 1 one inch head room! You will reasonably notify the difference! It took about one week for my Nissan dealer to find a 240SX that had not been butchered to install a leak probable after market Roof hatch! I got a factory installed roof hatch and it has not leaked in 26 years! Go Factory installed or prepare to live with wet front seats! Yokohama beats backyard dealer low cost mods!

Yeah if its literally just the body and nothing underneath, there shouldn't be any changes. Things like seats, dashboards RHD vs LHD (depending on where the shell comes from) could play a factor, so keep that in mind.
