I had a couple assemblies here, so I found the best screws/bolts from each and soaked them in Apple Cider Vinegar for 24 hours, then hit them with a wire brush and painted them. Cleaned them right up!

The one under the headlight is the worst. Don't forget about the spring either!

After a lot of contemplating, and some outside influence, I think the Type-X will get modded.

I'll stay SR until something goes wrong, then swap the JZ in. There's an event on April 15th, right before I leave for Japan, so it's time to get the car ready.

Maxis, Nardi and Bride FG rail installed. Also tossed on two GT Spec braces; can't hurt.

In prep for the event the 15th, I tossed in some driftworks arm, ISC arms and shocks, and PBM solid subframe bushings. This was a perfect time to toss in the ATS 2-way, and rebuilt Knuckles with 5 lug swap.

Slowly but surely coming together. Front end is next.

My Type X went through some changes.

Thanks man! I think I'm going to be raffling it off soon though.

Might be moving to Japan.

Well, both of these builds died down. I'll update how the caged 180sx turned out after paint and completion - it came out epic!

The Type X was sold off - and multiple new cars have come and gone since.

Awaiting a new build thread approval for my latest project, but I will update and finish this thread off for everyone.

How do I get another build thread approved?

It just takes a few days after you've hit "post" for it the mods to get around to approving it.
