Hello! New here, as well

[180SX_Faktory]

My name is Dale, and I am the owner of 180SX Faktory. I may be the only import guy in here, but I look to American Pro-Touring for design ideas and inspiration. I wanna learn the stuff you guys are doing because some day, the imports will need the very things you guys have developed over the years. To me, Pro-Touring one off is where it's at, whether it's American or import.

As for what I drive now, I drive a Nissan 180SX (Japan RHD) and a Nissan 200SX (UK version RHD)

I like the black one! The wing on the white one is not my style, but they are both very clean. Well done, and welcome! There are a few imports here, so no worries.

Shiny Side Up!

Thanks! Good to know that I'm not the only import guy here.

The black one is my daily driver. I'm a firm believer that cars were meant to be driven, not locked away.

Welcome to the site, Dale. Nice cars.

[180SX_Faktory]

Thanks, bros! It's nice to belong! That white one is basically running my life right now, and I'm trying to finish her up soon in order to start the shakedown/baselining of things.

Welcome. I had a 90 240 back in the day. Still one of the best handling cars I have driven. Power wise.........nnnnnot so much, but it seems you have that end covered as well.

[180SX_Faktory]

Yeah, North America got the low end engines with a lot of torque but no horsepower to think of. The Japan 180SX and the UK/Euro 200SX got forced induction from the factory. This SR20DET I have is full built from the bottom up, and my target is 550 whp on race gas and 450 on pump gas. My power-to-weight ratio alone should make this car feel double the horsepower.

these are bad cars bro i love the style of these i used to have one also i own 1972 240z with 350 conversion all cars are great fun as long as you love umm

[180SX_Faktory]

Wow! Thanks! JC, you have a Scarab? I think that's what the Z cars with 350 conversion were called back in the 80's. Yes! All cars are fun when you take great care of them and treat them right!

Then you are probably a huge fan of Full Race's complete R32 GTR chassis/engine/gearbox transplant into the S14! That is a crazy swap! I have a customer with an S14, and he wants to do the 2JZ swap next month.

Project this weekend is the start of build number 1 of a prototype I did last summer. A 240SX with a donor engine/transmission from a Nissan 300ZX. Twin-turbo, nothing cancelled, full options with paddle shifter from TWIST MACHINE.
