Not sure I have poste this here or not.
Picked up a 180sx type s shell about 5 years ago now, wasn't in the best condition when I picked it up.

shows the damage to the left rear 1/4

First step was having the damaged rear 1/4 repaired and the rust holes in the hatch where the wing was removed patched up

As it had no bumper lights guards or bonnet I decided to go down the path of a strawberry face conversion (s15 front)
http://www.devolve.co.nz/images/front1.jpg
purchased some HSD adjustable suspension, adjustable arms and tidied up the rear subframe

Then purchased the engine out of a friends old drift car that he was parting out, sr20det with 550cc injectors and adjustable fuel pressure reg, and a gt2871 off another friends sr20
