Ive been working on my build thread for the last 2 weeks repairing links and uploading pics back into photobucket. I also deleted some pics and info since i changed it up a bit. My thread is 100% restored for those that care to follow.

I finally got around to installing the 180sx front end back in the fall. I still need to wire in the jdm light harnesses and mount the c/f lip using oem style hardware. Everything lines up perfect...cant beat OEM!





SUBFRAME/ REAR SUSPENSION COMPLETE!

I ordered my Fortune-Auto RUCA's last week which completed my setup. im amazed at how solid these arms are.

I'm happy to see that front end on there finally! Looks like you'll have to sag that front lip some.

its just friction fit right now, but that angle makes it look worse than it is. looking from side its not that bad. i also have that rubber finisher i bought for a 350z bumper that i can add to bottom to give it a lower look.
