I’m considering buying a business, so regretfully, I need to sell my 180SX.

I bought it at the beginning of the year (so I’ve only owned it for around 10 months) off the original AU owner – he bought it in back in 2001 - so only two owners in AU! A few years ago, the previous owner had a complete engine rebuild done using only top quality parts and Jap brand goodies bolted on (Tomei; HKS; Apex’i; etc). Since I bought it, I’ve done a 32GTR front brake upgrade with full 5-stud conversion; suspension (Cusco; Whiteline; Ikeya Formula), and had it re-tuned. It has been looked after/serviced by Andrew at SX Developments, and serviced/tuned by Indy at IS Motor Racing. It has never been tracked, and is hardly driven! It is kept in a garage all the time, and is overall in pretty good condition for its age – it even has the original flare and original 180SX floor mats!

1993 ‘Red Top’. 155,000kms on chassis; 25,000kms on engine/mods.

Original OEM black in excellent condition (no fading, hardly any body blemishes at all).

Sunroof

Stock interior (dash/plastics in excellent condition; seat bolsters a bit worn).

NSW rego till July 2013.

All mods are under 25,000kms old with receipts for almost everything.

Rebuilt and forged engine:

- Venolia pistons; eagle forged rods; grant chrome rings.

- ARP head studs; ARP crank bolts.

- Tomei rocker arm stoppers.

- Tomei metal head gasket.

- HKS ‘step 1’ cams; HKS adjustable cam gears

- HKS GT-RS turbo (genuine) with HKS adjustable actuator on Kaminali s/s exhaust manifold.

- HKS 740cc injectors; HKS fuel pump.

- SplitFire ignition system.

- Trust/Greddy Type R bov.

- Trust larger sump (genuine)

- Z32 AFM

- Brand new Apex’i 80mm air filter (not fitted yet).

- Brand new oil catch can (not fitted yet).

- Nismo clutch and lightened flywheel.

- Blitz intercooler kit (painted black).

- Apex’i radiator cap.

- Brand new radiator overflow bottle (not fitted yet).

Full 3” stainless steel exhaust:

- HKS dump pipe

- 3” front pipe into 3” high-flow cat

- HKS Super Dragger cat-back exhaust with Magna-Flow twin-tip muffler fitted (original HKS Super Dragger muffler also available).

Brakes/ Wheels:

- Full S14 5-stud conversion.

- R32 GTR front brake upgrade with aftermarket rotors and Ferodo DS2500 pads.

- New rear pads.

- AVS Model 6 wheels - 17x8 +35 (225/45) front; 17x9 +35 (235/45) rear.

Suspension:

- Cusco Zero-2 coilovers (height/damper/camber adjustable) in excellent condition!

- Cusco front traction rods.

- Cusco rear camber arms.

- Ikeya Formula front tie rods with TuneAgent tie rod ends.

- Whiteline swaybars F&R.

- Rear polyurethane sub-frame ‘pineapples’.

Electronics:

- Apex’i Power FC and hand controller.

- Apex’i boost control module (controlled by the Power FC).

- HKS turbo timer.

- High-end alarm system with central locking/keyless entry.

Body:

- Original black in excellent condition.

- Genuine OEM 180SX Type X front bar with side extensions (and genuine lights/blinkers). Bar and extension pieces could do with a respray, but its not too bad.

- Veilside side skirts.

The car currently makes 225rwkw, however it’ll easily make around 250rwkw with more boost. The HKS actuator needs to be adjusted to a higher pre-load for it to hold higher boost to redline – once done, it’s an easy 250rwkw+.

As per above specs: $15,000, or $14,000 with stock suspension/arms.

Optional Extras:

- Cusco 5-piont bolt-in roll cage (add $400).

- Recaro SR3 front seats (pair; red) with genuine Recaro drivers side rail – not fitted (add $700).

- HKS oil cooler with filter relocation kit – not fitted (add $400).

- Apex’i twin-core radiator – not fitted (add $200).

I've had a few enquiries from interstate ppl on other forums - I'm more than happy to assist with freight/inspections etc for interstate buyers.

Daniel.

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
