CA180SX

Post by GoForGreen »

This is my 1991 180sx with ca18de manual

Used to be turbs so has LSD and bigger brakes

Also has coil overs all round
Pod filter
Exhaust
Dash cluster blue led's
Hicas lock bar
Rear strut brace
18' rims
Unknown front bar
Side skirts

Since buying this I've replaced some tread, put the led's in. Had alternator and battery replaced , cleaned out the cat and changed the thermostat

I'm in the process of painting the front bar, I've done the new vortex side skirts I bought in black as will the rest of the car .
Plans are
Paint car/wheels. Black
Get car running prime
Install stereo system
Tint Windows ..
This is my first ricer, iv only ever owned gemini's and I'd probably get another one if I had the chance..but this is gud enuf as a daily, despite the color lol .
I don't know much about the newer cars , fuel injected and ecu equipped ect, its a good learning curve. I jump into the ecu diagnostics on the weekend should be fun.
