    Yeh short shifter, prefer stock. Short are just annoying in my opinion.

    It's an N/A box, just feels like the ratio's are a lot shorter because I was almost at limiter in 3rd on short track at wakefield last weekend. Whereas before I'd be between 6-7000 rpm with the stock CA box.

    It's not that annoying, I've been looking into a different diff anyway, the welded diff in the car is really starting to get to me :\

    Hey dudes sorry for the update failure, I really suck with keeping things up to date.
    Over the past 6 weeks or so I haven't done much with the S15 or 180 apart from an event each. The 180sx has had a new Z32 box thrown in with the Mazworx adaptor plate, works like a charm now and can handle the power output better than the crappy little CA boxes.
    As for the S15 I took it out to an All Stars show last weekend and had a really sick time.



    Just finished my write up earlier - http://oliversimportheaven.com/2013/...ars-show-2013/

    Then I took the 180sx out for a drift day at Wakefield last monday. This was the first time I'd driven the car with the new Z32 box, I HAAATE how short the shifter is, the gear ratio's feel a lot shorter now but at east it didn't explode. I still need to go over the car because I now have a turbo line leaking and the shifter in the box is annoyingly short (I don't like short shifters)
    Then I can load it up and take it back out for some more skids!

    Sorry for the lack of updates, been busy with other stuff and haven't had much to update anyway. Been trying to save $$ so I can get the new gearbox setup in the 180.

    And i've had a load of time in the s15 lately, so much fun to drive, yet so impractical haha

    I spent most of the day hanging up at the race control tower, so I saw plenty of your car out there, looked good.

    I've got no job atm, but with all the spare time I actually got my car running, so as soon as I'm back in a job, I'll be drifting again.
    Yeh front guard got a little munched because of the new steering setup.

    Get at that job man, gotta get back out to Winton!

    Anyway, got a little update on my s15, the photoshoot I did a little while back for Fat Fitment.com turned out really nice, here's the first shot from Josh.

    Looks awesome

    Sorry haven't updated in a while, been busy as shit with work!

    I've had some new bits for my 180sx arrive over the past few weeks.. New S15 LCA extended 25mm, Ikeya formula tie rods and some riverside (Kuroi) knuckles. Then went to Winton for the summer drift matsuri. Here's a few pics of everything.

    My new knuckle setup -



    Then it turned the car into this - (Super camber)



    Then I went to Winton again for matsuri, got some pretty awesome shots







    Also did a write up of my first day of matsuri, check it out here - Winton Summer Matsuri 2013 – Day 1 | Oliver's Import Heaven

    I should have a video done soon and part 2 done this week with some more epic shots!

    Also the pics from the photoshoot for the S15 are done, just waiting to post them up, I'll get some up in here when they are out.
