Project SilEighty

A starting price too good to refuse, already had the idea of where I wanted my next street car to go.... This 180SX was in the right place at the right time to fall into my care.... Watch it evolve right here!

Big Rims + Big Brakes + Big Lathe - Don't Try This At Home!

Ok, so whilst this is strongly advised against.... I thought I'd still show some pics!

So my ION alloys are intended as an SUV rim not a passenger car, backspacing & big R33 4 Spotter brakes and room allowed left a lot to be desired... 










So, the simple solution? Machine the back off the rim :)





And after a quick wheel alignment, the final product... Just need to paint the guards now!

Allignment

Might have to take the spacers off with camber corrected? :)
