I’m considering buying a business, so regretfully, I need to sell my 180SX.
I bought it at the beginning of the year (so I’ve only owned it for around 10 months) off the original AU owner – he bought it in back in 2001 - so only two owners in AU! A few years ago, the previous owner had a complete engine rebuild done using only top quality parts and Jap brand goodies bolted on (Tomei; HKS; Apex’i; etc). Since I bought it, I’ve done a 32GTR front brake upgrade with full 5-stud conversion; suspension (Cusco; Whiteline; Ikeya Formula), and had it re-tuned. It has been looked after/serviced by Andrew at SX Developments, and serviced/tuned by Indy at IS Motor Racing. It has never been tracked, and is hardly driven! It is kept in a garage all the time, and is overall in pretty good condition for its age – it even has the original flare and original 180SX floor mats!
1993 ‘Red Top’. 155,000kms on chassis; 25,000kms on engine/mods.

The car currently makes 225rwkw, however it’ll easily make around 250rwkw with more boost. The HKS actuator needs to be adjusted to a higher pre-load for it to hold higher boost to redline – once done, it’s an easy 250rwkw+.
