The S15s new front legs

To start with

Car switch

The block on the 180sx seems to be warped and with Japan trip coming up rebuilding the motor can not financially happen. So the decision was made and the car switch began. I hire a local shed to use for storage so the 180 was winched onto my trailor and sent down there to be swapped with the crashed S15. A few hours later the S15 was stripped of everything and the reall work began. Ill get some photos tonight, ive ordered the tube i need to do a full tube frame front end so it should be a cool little budget practice car.

Project brief.

Full weight S15
Tube frame front end
Alloy radiator and intercooler
My custom knuckles, LCA, Tie Rods and Caster Arms
2 Bride Buckets
2 way diff
Coilovers
Home made half cage

The previose owners miss fortune

For sale

One of the S15s is up for sale, Japans calling and Ebisu just wouldnt be the same withought a car, so one has to go before another one is aquired

Another S15

Now cut in half (longways) keeping the rh side and the rest is off to the tip

Thanks Casey for the SH photos

Thinking of going back to a big kit, TEs and stock rear fenders on the 180sx before it heads out again.

I see your bad side

Just gave it a wash, its in very good condition, notice the rear knuckle has broken and saved every arm in the rear end from bending. Front rails bent but from caster rod mount backward its fine so nothing a hammer and some weld wont fix.

S15

Been living S15s over the last couple of days, i now have two, both have their faults. Over the next few months two will become 1.
