I recently bought a 180 from a guy off another forum, and I think I may have financially put myself in a bit of a mess with all the shit going on at Qantas at the moment (employee).

5-speed manual blacktop SR20DET. The car is very clean for it's age, interior has no missing or cracked pieces unlike most 180's or Silvia's, and the car is completely unmolested, and owned by a mature driver.

Only has a few tasteful mods which are all for the better of the vehicle. Has a new heavy-duty clutch installed in it, a C's short-shifter, GKTECH 'no holes' intercooler kit (meaning the battery tray hasn't been cut and leaving the car roadworthy), a Blitz turbo-timer and a turbo-back exhaust. Also comes with a set of white 17" GMAX wheels as pictured, and a new set of BC coilovers which are height/dampening adjustable.

Other than that, the car has been very well maintained throughout, inspections welcome. Has 186,000 K's on it, and given the way the car drives and feels, you would think it has less. The car had a roadworthy done under a month ago for being too low, it's now been raised and should have no drama's at all getting a roadworthy

Only selling to throw a little extra cash onto the mortgage in case the worst happens. I MAY consider swaps for cars of much lesser value and cash my way (would love a TX5 turbo).

Honestly, for a car built in '94, this thing is the goods. Come check it out, inspect it, drive it, buy it, enjoy it.

$9,000 ono

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
