take your fenders off, then take an s15 fenders off... then look at the chassis underneath and see if they look even remotely the same... you'll very swiftly come to the realisation that... NO! OF COURSE NOT! *does option dvd style smack across the head... oo there's a smiley for that :slap:*

the silvia and the 180sx are the same chassis, hence why onvias n sileighty's are common as chips. Bomex made a strawberry face adapter kit, so now many people around the world can change the 180's front into an s15.

If you're a pro welder and a keen panelbeater, then go nuts, if not, stop yourself before you squander your money away.

From the rear photo is has a huge spoiler that extends to the furthest extents of the body. from the front photo, the spoiler can hardly be seen and is definately smaller

someone got something really wrong with the perspective on that pic.. Mini Me is right..

front and rear views are not correct

are you guys sure that is the real deal?

it could be an excellent photoshop.. but.. then again.. who knows.. maybe its 2 different cars.. because the side view has a carbon or black bonnet on it..

maybe the 300zx front is really fat compared to the 32 rear

i know ur saying that as a joke..

but its still not possible.. look at the rear guards, the spoiler sticks well out further than them, and from the rear, you can see that the front guards are not "fatter" than the rears ALSO the rear window...

but when you look at the front its shrunk..

WTF

Ooooh, sounds like an X-file...

Look you ninkumpoops:D, obviously it's yet another *3-D object presented in a 2-D medium*... hence the magical wing thats long-when-viewed-from-the-back, short-when-viewed-from-the-front.

just had another look at the pic. even if the perspective thing did make the spoiler look so much smaller, then why can't the rear tyres be seen underneath the car on the front view. They are almost the same viewing distance behind the viewing point as the spoiler, and are not set as far apart, yet they line up directly behind the front tyres.............

here's another look zr32.jpg

Whos to say they haven't haphazardly cut around the image of the car to add it to the magazine page, and in the process cut off the protruding parts of the rear wing (in the front on pic) and then realized their mistake, then haphazardly "added" the protruding parts again, not taking into account the "3D object on 2D medium" conundrum, thereby creating this bollocks conversation...

...I mean, look at the wing on the drivers side in the front on view,(it has an end-plate) and then look at the pssenger side (it doesn't have an end-plate) OMG! :looney:

    • Yep it sure does.   Tone wheel lines up in the same spot perfectly.    
    • Something I meant to say when we were chatting the other night about having an open trailer floor being great to work on a car, but you've never used the feature... It's a great place to park a car after doing suspension component changes, and do the tightening of all the bushes with the car sitting at full ride height. Especially when you don't have a 4 post hoist!
    • That is way more science than even I would use. I just eyeball it, not even accounting for the non-verticality of the tape measure when held on the lip and the centre at the same time. +/- 2mm is good enough for the girls I go out with.
    • So, before putting them in I need to understand the stock ride height. This is how I measured it: First, check the diameter of the wheel's centre cap, it was 52mm. Then put a piece of masking tape approximately across the centre and measure 27mm (half) from at least 3 sides to get a reasonable idea of the centre of the wheel cap. Mark that with a horizontal line as one measuring point. Then, directly above the wheel on the guard, put another piece of masking tape in approximately the centre. Use a string line to find out the point on the guard above the centre of the wheel cap and mark that. Then it is simple, just a tape measure to check the distance from centre of the wheel to the centre of the guard. Final results where  LF: 381mm RF: 379mm LR: 401mm RR: 400mm Pretty even considering they are 120,000klm old factory springs, lets call that 380 front and 400 rear.
    • So....knowing that I have a problem with power steering temps on track and another Wakefield day booked in next Friday, I've done the obvious thing They are very reasonably priced at $1650, considering they are a big monotube shock, double height adjustable (don't have to change pre-load to change ride height), one way adjustable damping and standard sized and customisable springs if you want something other than what comes with them. They come with 9kg/mm front and 4.5kg/mm front and I went with that as a starting point because I'll add adjustable sway bars too https://justjap.com/products/bc-racing-coilover-kit-ds-ds-infiniti-q50-v37-14-current#description Unfortunately they didn't come with rear strut tops so I've re-used the factory ones which was a bit of a pain. Also, the adjuster for the rear shock will be an absolute nightmare to get at, and while there are extensions in the kit I can't see any way you can actually attach or use them
