Hi everyone, I'm new here, having been browsing for a while and thought I would post this up to help anyone else looking to buy a 180sx. Not sure if im allowed to post photos of the actual car or not for privacy reasons, can anyone let me know before I do so and I'll put some shots up of the undercarriage etc.
I've been keen on one particular car, its a 95 180sx, just had it checked over by State Roads cause it seemed quite good after myself and a friend had a bit of a look over it. I've attached the report if you would like to have a read through, seems to have had panel repairs which I assume is only cosmetic. BUT, has some rust on the undercarriage, exhaust looks like a bit of a worry, not sure whether these could be sanded down, welded or what. Other than that, common oil leaks for its age and worn bushes which could be expensive, not sure. He wants 8k for it, I wanted a fairly stock 180 as I want to work on it, only thing done to this is the exhaust... I personally don't think its worth 8, maybe 7-7.5 after repairs. As far as I know you can't replace the steering wheel on these as of 1995 as they have drivers side airbag, correct?
