Found it in the boonies in the parking lot of a Piggly wiggly. The guy was asking $2,500 for it.
He must of not known what kind of car it was! Probably thought it was a 10 year old fwd accord or something lol. Looks really clean, nice find.

I found myself with a camera so I thought I'd snap a few: ^another better mock up of the z32 wheels when I was doing some measurements

Hell yeah! I drove past that car a dozen times over the last 3 weeks thinking "Wow a Kouki, bet they want an Arm and a Leg." ... I just decided to stop and look at it for no reason at all and saw the price. It was meant to be I guess.

There's a plan: get the kouki for cheap then spend the saved cash on aftermarket parts/wheels lol Can you slide that bumper on the car? I did that with my JDM bumper just to see how it would look with the intercooler

I lucked out on mine as well. I paid 2800 for a 5 speed Black on gray leather SE model. Everything worked. I got it from a guy who's band I did some work for. So when he was selling it he called me and cut the price way down. He even knew what he had...

I actually took a picture with it on, but I don't think i uploaded it yet.I will try to do that later, i don't want to post too many pics until she is done. Painting is next month.

looks mean! and this is the kouki for 2500? f***!

right, you guys both got your kouki's for under 3 grand

Marn, I don't think a white kouki could look any cleaner and simple at the same time. Is your exhaust really close off the ground? I'm gonna lower my car about 1.75" and I think I'm gonna gaf the speed bumps due to my exhaust already hanging really pretty low..

i scrap my exhaust everywhere.

i have the apexi noir.

i snapped one of exhausts on a speed bump.

its definitely not a fun ride over anything but a smooth surface.

mine was 2800 and very clean. Im taking some sanding paper to it and getting her in the booth. I was told yesterday that I have to wait until May. But that is okay because I can take my time. I want to find a jdm kouki wing. and maybe a cf trunk.

She will see no more than three days at the track for tuning purposes only and then she will be my (more than likely my wifes ) DD

Marn, that is a sexy ride...I dont really like the jdm front bumper from the front, but it looks great from the side.

I think I'd rather deal with an occasional scrape on the exhaust than see ugly wheel well gap and floppy handling

yeah I used to like that front but I am not sure what it is. It may be because I have my own now and just got used to seeing something different. But I dont think it makes the car look bad by any means. If I saw it coming from any angle I would break my neck to get a look at it.

^nice car, what kinda lip do you have on the front bumper? Looks big and crazy

quick question for you guys with the JDM emblems, does the silvia "S" cover the two holes on the hood nicely? They look way too thin compared to the stock nissan emblem, or do you guys even have two holes there?

They fill the two holes. They use it for alignment, just like the Nissan emblem. At least I know that for the S-badges, I don't know about the lightning bolt style ones.

Actually, the pins match up perfectly...but taking out the older one is a pain! removin the glue requires heating, goo gone, and floss lol but its worth it! the rear one emblem is just a stick on
