    Cool, I'll hold out until spring, as mine will be back on the road at the same time

    I really like your S13. I hope to see it in the flesh one day. Hopefully I'll see it at some shows next year.

    This is probably the rarest and maybe most JDM thing i've bought for the 180. It comes as part of my winter plans for more of a racecar look.



    Its a brand new Genuine Koguchi bonnet, bought from Mr Andrew Strang in Scotland because he loves buying awesome parts and selling them again lol. Also got a brand new Garage Defend cooling panel and a GTX2867r turbo

    Fantastic looking car, mate!

    You're doing it absolutely right.

    And the plate is hilarious.

    BTW: I've never liked the center caps SSR offers for the Professor.

    But seeing them on your car makes me want some too.

    stunning pics! We've been to Austria last year, it's so cool passing all the mountains and the view is awesome.

    MAN! so jelly on that KP hood... I dont know how many times I put that one in my basket @ rhdjapan. Lets see how long I can resist lol.

    Car looks awesome though, but please fix that frontlip fitment (nohate haha). It should sit about 2cm lower from where it is mounted at the moment.

    Thank's man the bonnet is a little gem and i can't wait to see it on the car!

    Also there is absolutely nothing wrong with the front wheel fitment, if it was any lower then it would be un driveable, the chassis rail already hits the floor, and so does the tension rod brackets, and as high as i can get the exhaust, it still scrapes in places. So no thanks i don't want to lower it any more lol. In fact i'm raising it next year so i can have better handling

    lol dude, read that again. You kinda misunderstood this

    Speaking of ride height, my car used to be really low. It's so dumb but looked so good haha. I've raised mine too after hitting the rail way to often.

    Looks like i did lol. Still not sure about the lip though, it only went on one way and sits like that without even bolting it up!

    Haha, np man.

    Mine were exactly sitting like yours. I bolted it up like this until i realized that it's way too high when I took pics of my car.

    Anyway it's just a small detail though, other than that your car is perfect

    I picked up a diff last weekend from JapWestMods, its a Nismo GT that looks to be set as a 1 way LSD, with a 4.083 ratio, should be perfect for what i want!




    After spending a couple of days tidying my unit and making a work bench in the corner it was time to make a start on the car, so i got it up on axle stands, took the wheels off and the bonnet off and got cracking!






    Today i removed the turbo set up, exhaust, intercooler pipes, rad, viscous fan and shroud, the water neck on the right hand side as i have an s14 one to use.

    I will be selling the manifold and wastegate, the manifold is a Wardy88 that's been ceramic coated, i then had to have the wastegate position adjusted so there is a section that isn't coated. And the wastegate is a Genuine Tial 38mm with anodised purple cap with a 0.8bar spring.

    I have a few plans over the next month or so. I have ordered new front wings and i am going to fit overfenders. I have also got a nice little pile of parts ready to go on.

    ACT 6 paddle clutch and lightened flywheel
    ARP flywheel bolts
    ARP con-rod bolts
    ARP head studs and nuts
    Cosworth mls headgasket
    BC valve springs
    Tomei poncams
    Yashio Factory waterpump pulley
    Brand new waterpump
    Skyline viscous fan

    I also have a hardrace front arb to fit, and eccentric lockout bolts kit from GKtech as well as a fan shroud mounted catch can also from GKtech

    My new turbo set up consists of anoter Wardy88 manifold, this time its a Greddy copy of the mid mount, but much better quality, and a GTX2867R turbo and turbosmart 40mm wastegate.

    So hopefully by march time i should be running around 400bhp
