Cut rear deck and kept teh speakers, real car is the same way, you have the speakers pretty much above the strut tower, unlike some other peoples models that dont have the whole thing. steering wheel form a old lotus f1 car, boss hub made from exhuast tip from teh 180. Made a cusco replica strut bar, the real one is sick, my friend just picked one up for $100.

Made camber plates since I cut a lil too much off the struts. I removed teh whole spring part and glued the hat back onto the strut. You wont be able to see it anyways.

ugh imagestation is gay now.. http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4287695593

Anyways, Made lip for the front and sides. Made an intercooler from a domestic model car radiator I got from a friend. Wheels are Fujimi OZ wheels, painted the spokes black. Using the Bembo brakes that came with the wheels in the front only, real cars dont rock big brakes that look like the front in the rear, so I dont know where people got that idea for a street car. Besides, Ill just save the rear for another model to use for the fronts =).

Shaved the front license plate mount. Removed some of the meet behind it so the intercooler isnt barried back there.

Seat harness made out of masking tape. Routed to the rear seat thru the middle of the backing and seating pads.

Shave wiper and third brake light.

still cant see them as i am not a member and nor are alot of people.

nice

Thats nice man. I want to work on mine so nad ut i'm lacking paint. I like the exhuast and the pipine thats very sexy. Your pretty much doing everything I want to do.
I have a question. Did that seat fit? the one the driver side? I have one from my Skyline and it dont fit. keep up the greatwork man

i can only see just one single pic. but the chassis looks nice so far

seat I had to trim alot off the bottom and glue it in. Ill try to find a better host for pics...

Nice work so far!! I hate Imagestation now! Try Photobucket.com. I'm gonna transfer all of my photos to that site. Keep up the good progress!! :sunglasse

My real car just got hit last sunday, hit and run.. chased that mofo and got his plate... waiting for insurance feedback now cuz I had to drop down to liability recently before this.. so im waiting... sucks..

what kidn of rims are those?
i like your 1:1 car. its nice. Are you going to put the afc in thurr?

see my avatar, thats whats goin in there...

The wheels on the 1:24 are Fujimi 17' Racing Type OZ wheels.. They are oldskool style, but painting the spokes black made em look pretty nice.

flush-mounted rims with lip = heaven.
I thined out the inner side of the fender with a dremel.

thats nice man, I like those rims. I just wouldnt put those bad boys on kouki 180.

is that the ok 180sx?

planning on the s14 engine? nice!!

Looks good so far. That sucks about your 1:1 car.

its the Type X with teh 3 spoke Volk rims (look like advans but are not, I was actually close to getting the same Volk rims before but didnt)

My Sr is the s13 black top (94-95 180sx)(No vvti hump like s14 motor). I wish it was a kouki engine (96-98) but not really any differences, probably just ecu mapping.

I soo want to do a kouki replica with my car, I got the tailights, a JDM guage cluster, I belive the kouki model's cluster lights up red, so Id have to change the bulbs to red. I just gotta save up for the front bumper.

Looking good. Keep it up! Good job chasing that mofo that hit ur car! :iceslolan

any progress on this?
