Hi All

Selling my 1990 180sx. It's a little rough cosmetically, but drives great! I have the interior (rear seats/trim) and it will be included but not installed. When I ran it at Eastern creek a few months ago I ran a 12.8@118mph with almost bald tyres and stiff coilovers, and lots of wheelspin. So with some decent rubber a low to mid 12 would be easily achievable.

Mods are as follows (Probably some i cant remember as I am writing this off the top of my head at uni. Ill update as i get time)

Location: Sydney NSW

Kilometres: ~ 195000Km

Engine/driveline:
- SR20DET standard internals with cams (unsure of duration and lift)
- TD06 25g with external wastegate (I think its a trust 80mm) and screamer pipe
- Hybrid FMIC
- Full exhaust with false cat.
- Adjustable blow off valve
- Apexi power FC tuned by JEM to 255rwkw @ 21psi dyno sheet provided.
- Heavy duty organic clutch
- Heavily shimmed LSD, acts like a locker in carparks etc.
- Oil catch can
- K+N pod filter

Suspension:
- ISC coilovers 8Kg/mm front and 6kg/mm rears. Have some old stiffer coilovers that can come with the car if wanted.
- Rose jointed/adjustable castor rods.
- Rose jointed/adjustable adjustable rear upper control arms.
- Whiteline adjustable swaybars front and rear.
- Strut braces front and rear.
- 17x8 and 17x9 Wheels Front tyres are 90% tread KU38, rear are cheap tyres with around 10% tread. May replace before sale.
- Hicas deleted
- Project mu HC+ pads with slotted rotors at front. These pads are near new. Awesome bite and fade resistant.
- Wheel aligned recently.
- Also have 2 17x7 lenso skid/drift rims, and 4 14x6 skid/drift rims.

Interior:
- Aftermarket steering wheel
- Gearknob, drift button.
- Some pioneer head unit with crap speakers in the doors.
- Boost gauge
- Passenger seat is a type x seat.
- HID headlights.

Ill post up some engine shots soon.

Rego until Nov 2013. Any questions feel free to call me on 0433046780.
Thanks
Tim.

    • ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
    • And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.
    • No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.
    • Ahh. Well the block damage is a problem, you really need to run a tap or thread chaser through it to see if the threads can be saved, but any chips are likely to be bottom end bound which is bad. Earls seem to have what you need if you want to stick with mounting direct on the block: https://rceperformance.com.au/parts/earls-straight-adapter-1-8-npt-male-to-1-8-bspt-female.html, but as I said above I'd recommend remote mounting the sender
    • I'm not quite understanding or I'm missing steps here, (I appreciate people are trying to inform my brain but I am of the dumb, especially today) - All I want to do is mount the male BSPT of the OEM sender into the system somewhere without it snapping the adapter via vibration. The Nissan sender has a male 1/8 BSPT output. The block has a (very destroyed) 1/8 NPT input. I'm not really sure how a lathe assists with that, and also don't know anybody with a lathe, nor specifically what I would want to buy. I'm not really sure how adding additional adapters creates a better, more leak proof resilient seal here.
