    Thanks for that information mate I understand completely. I wish I'd known you were importing a car, I'd have asked for my sideskirts to have gone inside it!

    LOL I like your style. I couldn't believe how cheap 32s are in Japan, I started out looking for a 14 Kouki but my £7.5k was getting me nothing but poorly modified shitters.

    that's lovely I'd love an R32 one day.

    if you get a chance, given the similarities between the S13 and R32, I'd get the box sections sorted with a quality cavity wax too as well as doing the underseal, S13s seem to rust from the inside out once they've seen salt.
    white '94 s13 200sx scrapped - mapped to 1.45bar. OS giken box, garrett GT2876R, 950cc injectors, ORC twin plate, nistune. 349bhp/325lbft @ 1.3bar CA18DET
    white '96 s13 180sx - type g with more kouki bits - RB25DET, GTR steel twin turbo conversion, RB26 crank & rods. 2.6L VVT twin turbo, SR20 OSG box, OSG STR twin plate clutch, Z32 ECU w/ nistune.

    current status: 180 a bit broken but to be repaired.

    Way ahead of you, I've still got the Dynax cavity spray I was going to give the SX

    Here's another JM Imports have put on facebook this evening. She's passed her MOT today...

    These are the last pictures from JM Imports, I'll be collecting the car on Tuesday morning, much EXCITE!








    This is the reason I wanted fresh from Japan... 19 years and 80,000 miles, yet more solid than a 3 year old low mileage UK car...






    And then it has been undersealed, I'll be adding to this later on by doing the chassis rails/any other cavities with Dynax.

    Looks great mate. Really nice buy!

    So how many weeks in total did it take to come over?

    Not as long as most folk think, I'm sure <3 Months from when you first stuck it on FB. Looks great. Little disappointed by them in stock trim TBH. I had a play with one last night.

    That's 4WD for you, Scoobs & Evos aren't lightning quick as stock.

    However, crank this up to 1bar with an exhaust system, induction and appropriate mapping and they reckon 400ish at the fly.

    Yeah, this one had filters and exhaust, no idea about boost mind you I knew they weren't all that in stock trim and TBH I expect I'm pushing in and around 350hp.

    I'd imagine anything over 400hp in them and they are a totally different animal.

    Yeah you've got a decent weight advantage too Willie!

    Yeah it'll be off on the Regas, need to get 2 cracks welded up and them refurbished first though. Only had 8 months to sort that :/!

    I've got it

    This is a quick iPhone snap of it when I went go collect it...



    Also started tidying up the interior. New gear & handbrake gaitors fitted, the same style Nismo S-Tune leather gear knob I had in the S14A and a super rare OEM option armrest that has a cup holder section...





    Also whipped this JDM gizmo out, appears to be a radar detector or something...



    I'll probably fit my Nardi steering wheel tomorrow, and that's a lot of the interior eyesore sorted. Proper images to follow in the week some time.

    JDM gizmo is maybe a toll card reader?

    Looks good though. White regas would be cool!!

    With phrases like "Safety Detector" and "Trap Shooting System" on it, I'd imagine not. It was just plugged into the 12v socket too, not hardwired like a toll card reader.
