KOUKI 180sx AERO THREAD III

[TrustS13]

Primer grey.... still sux0rs. Paint that thing.

[TrustS13]

When I had BN from ExtremeDimensions: FYI their mold of the rear bumper is wrong, they send out like a Vertex rear? Apparently VIS has the proper rear mold, but their kit fits like ass.

Now I'm working on dat OEM kouki style.

I know! i already announced when it does get painted professionally it will be RED. haha. I just wanna drive the car this summer since i already lost 3 weeks of summer from this accident. once the cars back on the road i just wanna slide a bunch, get a little bit of footage hopefully. then when i get kouki skirts and a new fender and bumper ill paint it red. also i still have to fix my lip. i have alot to go until i choose my final color.

Love these tails, they work so well for this car. Looks like it was straight out of an Option or D1SL video. JDM rice fer lyfe.

[kyles1988]

I dig Nico's car for sure. the tails match his look perfectly.

[hOngsterr]

usually the people that hate are usually the people that get hated on so they have to spread the hate

RULES:

Has anyone attempted attaching S15 Craft Square mirrors to their Nissan 180SX?

The S13 version looks kind of poor boy, while the S15 ones are full cool master.


The 350Z ones are fancy as well, but I am not sure if the bolt pattern is the same.

eBay ganadors if you're broke. I saw one member with 350z mirrors on his s13.4 so it can be done

[Matej]

Would rather have stock mirrors than any of the cheap-looking ones.
Upon further inspection, it seems the S15 version would most likely not fit, since S15 doors curve around the mirrors. But the 350Z ones may actually work, which would be neat, because they have one of the coolest base plates they sell.

[kyles1988]

DADMON had s15 gDors on his car for a few years. I think only 2 bolts lined up and the lip on the bottom edge sat out a little further than it needed to

[towlie]

Damon used to have s15 ganadors. They fit, but not well. I'm thinking about selling my east bears to get ganas haha

[ZX88]

ganas are is the only way to go.

[Arireese]

only difference i changed was wetsanding with 1000 instead of 800. and now the car is shiney..in person i can actually see my self a good amount in the paint..i compared the door the 1/4 and its really different..so i started to repaint the rest of the car using the same steps. Idk but it sure does look better. so far 1/4s and hatch are done and headlight covers..i was hoping to drive the car to formula drift but i guess ill have to wait to bring it out at east coast bash!

[MidwestMyriad]

Ganadors are cool because they are level, and make that straight line across the car, any justification of those other mirrors is just that, a justification. Plus the bases are metal, not some shitty ABS (save for the "carbon look" ones), and contour over the door moulding thus furthering the aesthetic pleasure. There's always going to be someone complaining, it's usually the people who can't afford ________. Or the ones who just have poor taste. In many cases, one is indicative of the other.

[Matej]

Speaking of poor taste, I will just go with the S13-specific Craft Square mirrors.
If anyone happens to know of any used ones for sale, that would be swell.
How do I type Craft Square in Japanese?

[CamryOnBronze]

Correct- I had S15 ganadors until very late last fall. I actually haven't really posted pics since I changed them with the car on the road, so any pics you see of my car with ganadors, they are S15 ones. Only one hole lined up, and there was a gap between the door and the mirror.

I was told they fit the S13 when I got them, so I had them sprayed and attempted to install them. It was a bummer.

[da_crew10]

I have r32 ganadors ,everything lines up!
