I would assume you are talking about a 180sx. If this is the case then a 180sx IS a s13!

180sx only come out in turbo versions exception some late model ones that are NA Sr20's.

Apart from the coupe shape, there isn't much difference.

cept of course 180's looks like sex on wheels and Silvia's look like a family sedan!

lol *jokes* :smile:)

91-92 is a good model. Don't go cheap, get an Sr20det. hey I got a ca18det and I love it to death don't get me wrong... but I think the sr20's got the reliablity.

Yeah man the 180's are rareer in oz but have growin nubers. Silvias are more common coz of their availablity and price. I love the 180 shape.

ARE YOU CRAZY! Dont sell it (i mean you only just finished the site, how good would it look if the admin has no silvia!) Just spend more money on a really good alarm. With the silvia its really easy to just put a L shap wire through the window and unlock the door from the inside, so unhook the locks so they dont work from inside the car! Use keyless entry. Thats my only hint, if not how does 12g sound? Thats all i got to spend on my 180, so it looks like i'm getting the 1.8L :smile: 12 grand can get me a nice 180 right?

How many other people have bought an import through this rod guy? his prices seam pretty damn sweet next to most other importers? Do they need more fixing up or.. i dunno whats the deal with importers, some are like $15g for a simple S13 others are 8 for a done up 180sx?
I'm just so confused now i dunno who to buy through!

Ok alan
Some importers make as much money off a car as they can, its got a lot to do with position of their dealership!
Others, know how much a particular car is worth and sell it at a runnout cost so they can fit in the next container load of stock, Rod works much like this, make a bit of money and get the space back in the lot for the next container.

Totally up to you but when you spoke to Rod did you tell him where you were from? if you do he will give you a really good price.

any more Q's?

Well i'm going for a long ass drive up to this rod guy next weekend, he says he has a 180sx for 12g, so i figure it better be in damn good condition! How do you know him? Did you import your 180 through him? Anyway i hope its worth the drive because i all hyped to get this 180 on the road!
thanks for your help man,
- alan.
