1996 Type X 180sx. Need to sell asap, make an offer. I am in need of a family car as we have a young baby. Compression tested at 160 for all 4! Great unmolested example.

Can sell cheaper without coilovers and wheels if the buyer wishes to negotiate.

Only ever ran on stock boost, the oil gets changed every 4000km, never been flogged, only drinks BP Ultimate. I'm the second owner in Australia. The first owner imported it 1 year ago. I have a baby and we cant afford our house repayments and need to sell. The momo steering wheel has no airbag but I still have the factory steering wheel with airbag in it and the standard castor arms. Also the dash is not cracekd like you see in most 180sx's.

I have recently had the blacktop sr20 compression tested it and It came back with 160 on all 4 cylinders. This is a great example of a type x 180. It has not been boosted above stock and it is a beautiful car to drive. It is a non sunroof model so no annoying water leaks or rust in the roof. It would be the perfect daily curser or platform for somebody wanting to build a car.

mod list:

Exedy brass button clutch, about 5000km's old.

HKS intake kit,

Splitfire voltage stabiliser.

Full turbo-back exhaust: Dump+front pipe, HKS catback system,

Tein super street adjustable suspension with pillowball upper mount, about 5000km"s old

Adjustable castor rods,

Work 16" wheels, the backs are wider than the fronts. 4 Brand new tyres just fitted.

Momo race steering wheel,

Blitz boost gauge,

DVD player,

Pioneer speakers,

Keyless entry,

Genuine Type X seats front bar, side skirts & Floor mats. Also comes with the type x steering wheel. The drivers seat shows almost no signs of wear. Pics don't do it justice so come have a look for yourself. It gets at least 450km's out of every tank. You wont find better than this 180sx.

I may trade for a car of interest as i need a family car.

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
