'97 genuine midnight purple 180SX Type X

[Slammed 66]

I've been giving some thought lately to selling my S13.


I'm chasing another R32 GTR and as you're probably aware they've become real expensive, real quick. As such I might have to part with the 180.


It's got it's good points and it's bad so I'll get the bad out of the way first and if you're still interested then you can read the good.




BAD:


It's had paint in the past whilst in Japan. It's been done to a very good standard but it's been done.


The lacquer on the spoiler has gone dull and there's some other lacquer on a rear quarter that's gone odd but not come away or anything. Look next to the aerial in the 3rd pic and you'll see what I mean.


It's lacking power for some reason. I've not got to the bottom of it and I *suspect* it's down to an airflow meter issue. Basically it makes power on boost but is lumpy when at wide open throttle off boost.


Rear boot hydraulic Rams have lost pressure




GOOD:


Genuine factory midnight purple type X. As rare as it gets and the only genuine one in the UK as far as we're aware.


Full original interior in excellent condition.


I wanted one that was standard inside and out that I could just get more power from without ruining the look with big wings and stripped out interior.


Japanese coilovers. Can't remember the brand but they're adjustable all over the place


Super advan 3 spokes (16")


Apexi turbo, stainless manifold, elbow and decat that I bought from Mitch when he broke his ps13


3"catback


Genuine HKS fmic


Hks EVC6 boost controller


Apexi cone filter


Strut brace


Blitz dual turbo timer


Nardi wheel and nismo knob


Pioneer double din stereo


Hid headlights


Aftermarket front bumper. No idea what brand as I'm not up on kits.








I can't stress enough just how clean and rot free it is underneath. It really is 100% rust free which is unlike 99% of most S13s out there.




It's MOTd until next July and has covered around 115,000 miles.


I'm the first uk owner and it came into the country last April (2015) from a dealership in Japan so there's no auction sheet grading etc.


I've not got many pics and sadly those that I have aren't great.

Price wise, I was thinking £6,500 was fair in this condition and being this rare.


I'm located in Grimsby and available for viewings most times.


Thanks.

Thanks Alex. Not sure I really want to sell it but it'll probably get used even less if I get another GTR

[Trevhib]

A very cool thing that :)

I had an S14, which was a brilliant thing :agree:

[Slammed 66]
