well i finally bought my car after 5 months of waiting to import etc i got one from here nice 180sx 95 model with afew light mods =0 so its 10 at night and iam leaving my girlfriends place so i say good by give her a kiss and goto press the disarm button on the remote but i dont! i press the remote start button by accident my car starts up and starts moving preety quickly might i ad. so my g/f goes OMG ! THE CAR so i start running for it try to open the doors they are lockedd drag onto the car dosnt stop so the car manages to get half of it self onto the lawn of the foot path missing 5 trees by 10 cm gets off the lawn 1 meter till it hits the main rd i manage to press the right button while draagging onto it and running aftter it and it stops 1 meter from the main rd with about 10 cars camming its way all i can sy is thank you GOD! THANK YOU SOO MUCH! taking it tommrow to take off remote start =) after that i noticed when i was driving i didnt pay much attention to it when i first bought the car but when i was driving home after the great incident i was checking to see if my wheel alinment was straght so i put the steering wheel straght and it went straght but i noticed that when i was driving the steering wheel wasnt actully perfectly straght it was slighly to the right a fraction. so if i did put it dead straght it would go towards the left a little bit. but if i left go of the wheel and let it go straght the car goes straght but the steering wheel is actually a fraction to the right. now i wanted to ask ? 1 was this already there and i didnt notice it from the start i think so =) 2. is it the steering wheel, if it was taken out and put back in wasnt put in the exact same spot? (its a standard steering wheel with airbag) 3. could of m car going on the footpath a little bit put out the wheel alinment and steering alinment =) let me know what ya think guys thanks =-)

where to get indicators when putting in new front bar
Dragon18 replied to Dragon18's topic in Exterior & Interior Styling
there it is. basically all i want is a place that has those indicators ? where can i buy them from just in general??? -
Hay guys iam just asking . proberly refereng to all front bars. i rang up afew places in regards to the do luck front bar i want for my 180sx. and i asked if they come with the indicators and they said no some one metioned to me that i need the series 2 indicators. which is ok becuase my car is a series 2 97 180sx question i wanted to ask was that do all front bars not come with any indicator lights etc and if not where the hell can ya get some from lol =)

as for rotarys they are reliable as long as you treat them good and you treat any car good they are good you have to make sure the apex seals arnt gone in the rotor that is the biggest problem with rotorys poeple thrash em and done use the right fuel low in water and not tuning em makes the seals go they cost about 2 to 3 k to replace i have been and driven an rx7 series 5 and i think they are awsom thats my nex t car id love to get plus they hold their value coz you cant import them unless over 99 model thats my 2 cents =)
