well, this all started about a year ago when i started looking for a cool DD for high school and collage. i was in the market for a 510 datsun, but stated lookin for 240's when i saw a pic on utube of 180sx.

thats when i spotted this on cragslist about a year ago. with 196,000 miles on the clock, unholy clean and original, and that fact it had never been hammered on much, so i swiped it. ... then fell in love with it. (damnit)when i bought her...

Plans= im a poor high school/collage student. no engine builds or swaps, i'm just getting the body, chassie the way i want till i have enough cash build my KA in an all motor/tubo fashion.

however...ive done some,limo tintgrant classic stering wheel replaced clutch/trans. main shift boot2.5 cat-back/magnaflow muffler

near-future plans...180sx type-x tailights megan strutsxxr 501's/falken rubberkoyo aluminum rad.front/rear strut tower braces

i dont plan on anything gaudi (body kits, super camber wheels, scrapin exhaust) just a cool clean nissan ... with power to back it all up. (someday)

[QUOTE=barefoot mat]Welcome To Nico!!!

And it looks like someone shaved off your front emblem, usually theres an indentation of a nissan logo in the center of the front bumper. Its Clean tho!

thanks nico guys, sorry, the steering wheel is just the red blooded american redneck part of me.

yeah i really wan't to clean/shave the hatch, and fix the dash before going back to shool. i think that will have to wait for next year.

plus i want to grab a cheap beater for the winters around hear (amarillo Tx, lots of cold and snow, plus they salt the roads too)i already have a place to stash the car. so looks like my future mods may have to wait, but i think it will be worth it.

How is this possible? With a hatch you get alot more trunk space. And welcome.
