I think there would be a lot of chopping and fabrication in this one. On a 240Z the sides of the hood are straight right from the nose to the scuttle and on the Zed80 they've made it wider rearward of the headlight buckets and made the fender tops slimmer. That front bumper would probably have to be completely fabricated too.

Be awesome if you could do it though. It's make a nice partner for your current projects

Re: 180sx with s15 half cut PROGRESS!

Ok, well i sat down last night and scribed the sil80 and finaly got it right. So today i primed it! Now its ready for a nice coat of paint. I will let the primer dry for a week and then give it a coat of paint.

Here are the pics:



The porsche needs a few toch-ups but is looking good. I only gave it 2 light coats of primer seeing the car will be black any's.




Will keep you updated.

Orange for the S15 with 180SX front and carbon bonnet. The 180SX with S15 front will be gloss black.

That color looks good on almost anything, I did my Datsun 510 in that color and I love it! i think you should paint both the nissans this color, make them like...twins, kinda like the signal auto sileighties

Re: 180sx with s15 half cut PROGRESS!

Thanks everyone!

I might do the 180sx with S15 front in Mica blue....or a nice blue colour (a bit darker than a stock R34 blue)

Still undecided though.

All imputs are more than welcome!

Hey Spoolin12, those gold wheels that you had on the one of the Nissans, what are they? Did you modify them some how, looks like you did.
