hey, were you following that guide on putting in the S15 dash into your 180SX? If so, that means you also had to cut out some stuff in order for it all to fit, correct? Does it also have the gaps that the person mentioned in that youtube video?
machine is coming along nicely
very nice nick !
so what engine are you going?
rb20det
wooo^^ mines a headace though
i used the video for reference, but alot of it is by feel … but yea you have to cut a bunch of tabs for clearance and theres the gaps on either side where your pillar panels meet the dash, would be easy to cut out little filler peices and paint to fill gap … or if u wanted to go over kill custom pillars would work too…, will eventually come up with a solution will post a picture or 2 when i get around to it
Apart from that been a busy summer of working and havent done much to the car since last few pictures … i fixed my problems with the lights and relocated a few switches so lots of extended wiring basically has been done, allso lowered the car on a cheap set of coilovers for now … will spent some cash on footwork when i have it to spend…
^ lights arent actually that bright … its just my cellphone lol
props to me for hooking nick up with the coils, woo woo for me.
sharp is a theif blah blah blah don’t buy from him he’ll fuck you over blah blah … lmao jk Thanks again man Big props indeed
wow, the car is looking great Nick!! I want to be able to do something like this, but for a LHD 240SX. I tried contacting Allied Composites to see if they would be able to custom make an S15 console for an S13, but they never did get back to me :(. In any case, I am looking forward to your next update!
Great job Nick!
