Hey I found another great site, gat just about enough money saved to buy my nissan...180SX, 17inch AW, TURBO Timer, Sun Roof, TURBO, 1,365.05 USD

found some rims in the company's parts section they are 18 inch alloys (I wish they were smaller too but they're the best looking ones)

think they'd look nice on a 180?well the 17" that on now are nice but I wanna step it up a notch man

I don't know how much of a difference this makes, but those wheels have kind of a funky bolt pattern. It looks like it is drilled for both 4 and 5 lugs wheels. I guess it is safe though if a company if making it like that.

By saying you "found another great site". I'm going to asume you mean a web-site. May I ask which site?

I'd worry about getting the car before upgrading anything. Make sure it runs perfect, then upgrade components.

Word to that

Panther CA parts are almost just as easy as SR parts to come by. Check the Ca forum for links and what-have-you. NICO sponsors sell many CA parts as well. Shop around bro

I don't know how the aftermarket support is over there, but one thing that steered me towards the SR is just that, the aftermarket support. That and my general lack of knowledge about the CAs, however if you can find the 89-90 S13 with the CAs go for it buddy.

Well I want to know if parts are easy to find just in case it DOESN'T run properly and stuff need replacingThe white(1990) 180 has a CA and the gunmetal(1991) has an SR. white= cheaper + sunroof.

the main point is can I tune a CA to be > or = to an SR? and scince there's a CA forum maybe the car's closer to being bought than I expect I mean they both have turbo timers etc.

the total price of getting the white 180 will be 2,680 including shipping and insurance.

all of that and the CA is not as aesthetically pleasing as the SR....

question now is CA / SR...which one can beat a turbo integra/ keep up with an EVO (early models) easier? and I know you can get the SR to 2.2 litres...

I want my car to be fun, yet able to open a can of whoop *** at a moments notice and I bet the 91 180 would be able to beat them around the corners (once I practice and learn proper rwd technique)

buy the ca powered car wiht the extra money you can make it as fast as the sr'd one. Now go out and buy it instead of talkign about it. I think I speak for everyone in saying this is getting old. Buy the car then you can brag about it.

with money and time a CA can infact be > SR. al depends on how you budget time and money. with the right combo of BPM you should be able to TOAST any integra turbo and keep with an evo as long as it is stock or very lightly moded
