Seeing a clean preserved, yet used, SChassis these days is getting harder to come by. Ando’s Nissan 180sx is a perfect example. Let’s dive in!
When you think of “The Pefect S-Chassis” there are so many variations that can come to mind. S13, 14, or 15, coupe or hatch, stock aero or BN Sports kit, 15 inch or 18 inch wheels…That’s the beauty of these cars; so many ways to customize them to suit the owner. One way to customize is the classic “simple and clean” look. I feel as we get older, and as these cars become lessor in numbers, it’s more of a luxury to go this route. He’s done a great job showcasing this style!
In 2012, with only having 45,000KMs and 1 owner with 0 accidents, his dad purchased this 180sx. When he turned 20 years old, his dad past it down to him and he started driving it. That led him to modifying it and even drifting it at places like Nikko Circuit, Mikawa Motorland, and others! You gotta admit, midnight purple just suits a 180 so well!
