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.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
