Due to lack of use, and lack of funds, my car is going to have to go (I think).

The spec is as follows:

1994 RPS13 180SX
“Red Top” SR20DET (no rattles, knocks, smoke etc)
63,000 KMS,
Walbro Fuel pump,
“White Lines” Subframe pineapple mounts (set to Drift obviously)
Cusco Front Strut Brace,
Cusco Rear Strut Brace,
KAAZ 2 way LSD (1 practice event since new)
D2 Coilovers (2 practice events from new)
HKS pillow ball top mounts,
APEX Rose Jointed suspension Alignment set, (1 practice event from new) including:
Rear Camber Arms,
Rear Toe Arms,
Rear Traction Arms,
Front Track Control Arms,
NEW Exedy clutch (driven 1 mile from Garage),
HKS Exhaust,
DW Spin turn button,
Boost Gauge (HKS I think),
Pivot Sleepy eyes,
Pair of OMP Seats, (only got round to fitting drivers seat, both originals available too)

About 2 sets of S13 Alloys and various tyres.

I bought the car off here 18 months ago as a pretty fresh import, which it’s previous owner hadn’t used due to a suspected boost leak – traced by me to actually being a shot fuel pump which was uprated to a Walbro.

The car had just been professionally resprayed in BMW M3 “phoenix yellow”, and still needed it’s interior trim etc refitting. This has now been more or less completely done although a couple of minor trim panels do still need clipping in. Since then I’ve just spent money setting it all up and fitting stuff, plus only 2 practice events. It is incredibly easy to drift and even makes me look good.
It’s not yet road registered although I have got all the import papers, so it just needs an MOT.
I was thinking of sticking it on ebay with a buy it now of £3900 and a reserve of £3750.. is this reasonable?

I'm several grand short of being able to buy anything this nice, but I've been in it for a lap of Barkston Heath and it was soooooo much nicer to drift than my mazda. Very gentle breakaway but sideways everywhere - made me wonder why drifting feels so scary in my car.

Shame you're selling it Matt, especially after buying all the new shiny bits for it.
 
Thanks for the nice comments muppet, yeah, it really is sooo easy to drift. Here is a link to some footage of the car filmed that day.

It was it's first and only time out with the diff and coilovers etc, and my first time drifting it...I'd tried previously with it in standard trim and it rolled so badly it was like being at sea. As you can see it certainly stays flat now.
 
hi mate. really nice sx. i would love to know where i can buy one of those front splitters for one if you can tell me. ive looked everywhere for one
 
sorry mate, I'd forgotten to update my settings to my new email address...now corrected.

Feel free to email your enquiry about the 180sx or I'll try giving you a bell during the day.

cheers,

Sorry, don't know where you can get them, mine came with the car.....you can buy this front splitter, it would cost you over £3500, but would come with a car attached.
