What are these things in the car i bought? can any one identify?

[Dragon18]

Hay guys i bought my car and its been a month or so should be on the boat hehe =)

its a 180sx 97 model and yesterday i was looking at the pic and i have no idea what some of the things in there are ?

on the bottom passanger corner it looks like the the cover is off and might have after market ecu

the others have round circles around them any ideas?? =)

appreicate all your help =)

[skyzerr33]

boost guage - looks blitz ish

possible aftermarket ecu

other two

drivers side either apexi afc or itc

and passenger older style boost controller.

Hmmm...to me, showing through the steering wheel is some sort of Trust Greddy Boost Controller (possibly Profec B)... on the other side it looks more like a turbo timer.

Possible aftermarket ECU yeah, but just because the cover is off doesn't mean too much. Just could be something like the turbo timer or other device attached to it.

Going on the Razo sticker and the pedals they are aftermarket Razo pedals too.

Thanks for your help guys i might label them in number so i know exactly what ya talking about heheh =)

ill change the pic thanks for your help let me know -=)

[Guest dori]

going from left to right..

ECU, Boost controller, then boost guage sitting on top with old school APEXi AFC under the dash.

[predator]

Good to see everybody can agree on what the stuff is Do we win a prize?

Here is an image of a Profec-B (which is number 3 below the dash). Looks remarkably similar to mine i just scanned??

[deesh]

oooh, nice seats, later model, i wish my interior looked like that.

[Blitz]

Dragon: i dare say you appear to have an Apexi Power FC ECU, silver unit with blue end where the loom plugs in.

the rest sounds about right

[T0nyGTSt]

That blue cage also looks the business. Hate to meet that car in a dark alley...

[Dragon18]

hahah awsome =) so i got my moneys worth then =)

now i wanted to ask ? will that apexi power fc ... will it be in english or jap and if so? can it still be tuned here? =)

also is it worth getting rid of the profec B boost controler and putting in an avcr =)

ok guys so i know now

that

1. is ECU Apexi Power FC

2. ???

3 Profec B boost controler

4. boost guage =)

5 ???

also wanted to ask ? do you think i will get any hassles with that boost guage there?

wont stop me from seeing things on the rd =)

and if i took some things off the dash and there are holes do you guys know if its possible to repair the holes fix em etc =)?

omg - so you have no idea what all that stuff in yur car does?

didn't it come with listed mods?

but yeh, far out - that roll cage is nuts...

and the boost controller, guage, aftermarket ECU are all really damn handy to have already done for ya...

who'd u import with?

is the stereo area fully empty? does it even have the factory mounting cradle inside? coz mine didn't and took me absolutely ages to source the part so i could mount my headunit into.

my guess at 2 is a turbo timer of some sort although doesn't look familiar, seems the only damn mod missing inside yur car... lol.

got any more pics?

[Dragon18]

thanks man =0

yea rest of the pics are at

PICS ARE HEREE!!!!

hehe

its a 97 180sx type x mods include suspension exhuast sway bars intercooler so far damn i have already bought my stero so hopefully they are in there if not? i might be in the shits hahah =)

now that i found out what all those damn mods are iam getting scared hope the engine is ok hehehe =)

let me know what ya think thanks for all the help =)

i got it off craig from j - spec imports (really reconmend him) it was such a bargin i couldnt belive so i tock my chances and bought it =)

[Guest MRE]

Nice rims....

Would you mind dropping me a PM with the price you paid?

[predator]

Looks like the front end will need a respray... which could cost a couple of grand, but otherwise if u got a good deal for it great. I wouldn't worry about the mods too much - the only concern would be whether it has done track work or not.

[T0nyGTSt]

When I ordered my car I only got the standard Japanese inspection sheet.

It was only when I got it here and I had a few mates go over it did I get the full extent of the modifications that went into the car.

Otherwise I would have baulked at the HKS suspension

Hmmm... doesn't my butt hurt...

Is that roll cage legal? Just thought only half cages were legal. Maybe no side bars though the door area?

If not compliance could be a problem.

[Dragon18]

well as for the front i will see how bad it is when it gets here if it is ill just get a new front bar i like and get it spraied iam good friends with some good panel beaters so they said about 1500 for the hole car sprayed which is good =)

as for track work iam not sure it has dont it or not

good thing is has all original seats etc no race seats and is comming with some service books =)

as for the roll cage

i live in vic and they are legal depending on how they are bolted onto the car etc

but if worst comes to worst i might have to get it taken out the front par but if i can ill keep it =)

if it requres a lil work then ill proberly take to an enginer to get it approved if its a big hassle then ill proberly take it out =)

[Dragon18]
