Nissan 180sx

The Nissan 180sx is a very rare car to find. They stopped production in 1998 and the best way to get a real stock Nissan 180sx is from shipping it from Japan itself.

The S13 Silvia was discontinued in 1993, but the 180SX was successful enough to convince Nissan to keep it in the market for the full length of the next generation Silvia (S14). The 180SX differed from the S13 Silvia in that it featured pop-up headlamps and a liftgate with different body work at the rear of the vehicle. Specifications and equipment were similar however, the naturally aspirated CA18DE engine was not offered.

The 180SX came in three major iterations: first was released in 1989, the second from 1991 to 1995, and the third that ended production in December 1998.The first 180sx came in 2 versions, type 1 which was standard version and type 2 which was Advanced type. All versions had the CA18DET engine with 175 hp. The 5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic transmissions were available in all types. The second version came out in 1991. It included the SR20DET engine with 202hp. The front bumper and parts of the interior were also redesigned. The final version was released in 1996. It had a revised front bumper, tail lights, 15-inch wheels and interior. Three levels of 180SX were offered: Type X, Type S and Type R, with the Type S being the first 180SX to be offered without a turbocharged engine. The type X and Type R both had 202hp engine. However the did not have as many cosmetic additions of the type X such as the front lip, rear spoiler, side skirts, rear valence, and 15 inch alloy wheels.

The Car was RWD and was always RWD. It can be modified into a very fast car, and to prove it, Yoshinori Koguchi used this car for a D1 Grand Prix, which is a tournament for Drifters.
