I can't wait to see this finished.

How did you sand down the tires to make them look stretched and how did you get it sanded evenly?

Very nice, but I see you still have automatic transmission in it...not too good for drifting, lol. I really like the paint on the tail lights.

Re: Nissan 180SX S13 driftcar

Hello! Long time no see. I decided to finally finish red 180SX. I finished rims, brakes, dashboard with custom steering wheel and shifter etc. I've started detailing up and finishing engine (bought Top Studio Hose Joints, braided lines, some wires and HD Mesh Radiator), but found some things to improve and modify. For example I had to make smaller intake manifold because of the throttle body, which didn't fit in the engine bay with the old manifold. I will also have to make new radiator and intercooler/turbo piping, because I forgot earlier, that the front lamps will take up a bit of space in the engine bay, and now current piping don't fit :mrgreen:

I've painted inlet manifold using Molotow Liquid Chrome marker. Also started work with cables, wires etc.
