Ryota’s Nissan 180sx

There’s something about the look of a 180sx with the latest (Kouki Type-X) OEM aero package Nissan came out for this car. It’s sleek and stylish yet just aggressive enough to almost be something aftermarket with backing quality. If you like these cars, I think this look and style will always be a go to!

With the ever-rising prices of these cars more people are going the N/A route. Ryota easily drifts this car. You don’t need power to slide these; just a good suspension and aftermarket arms, an alignment, and you’re golden!

The fitment of the TE37s and how well kept this car is, just makes for another fine example! And yes, that’s a Garage-S hood! He told me it took him a year to find one! A car on the Garage Abstract team now has one of these. I think they go so well with the style of the 180sx! They should re-make this hood!

A very similar car is Thomas’ 180sx, of Garage Abstract, I wrote about previously (https://exec-11.us/2021/08/23/nissan-180sx-koguchi-replica/)
