Shakotan Inspired 180sx (240)

[KoukiS13]

Hi I’m from Northern Va and new to Stance Works

I've had this shell for a while and have been cleaning it up and saving up for an Sr. I like the old shakotan and older jdm style cars and decided to do a simple and unique route with it. Currently has a pair of rusted Megan streets on it which I've been trying to break loose, and Z32 brakes an 5 lug conversion.

This is also my first car and my first experience actually working on them, so it's a learning experience for me.

This is how she was when I got her, kind of beat up













Cleaned up, a little bit








Sorry for the crappy pics

Planning on getting 15x10 centerline autodrags, like the rears on this




Currently cleaning up the bay for paint before I drop in the SR. I'm going to take an auto body class at my high school to paint and do some body work.

[KoukiS13]

Thanks, once I get it running nicely, i'll probably go to drift nirvana

Good luck on the project, I'd like to see some fat ass centerlines on a 240.

This sound promising, should have made the thread title Shakotan Boogie. Good luck with the build.

And pulling that nasty ass dent out of the front fender,
body's looking a bit better

[scweet14]

[basyrfang]

[KoukiS13]

Thanks for all the comments!

Been pissed lately, the auto body class I was taking at my high school got canceled. And I can't get my car until september when it starts up again!! Gonna be delayed for a while. Thinking about going a whole new route with the car in the mean time tho.
