180sx kouki wings are an abomination and Nissan should hate itself for ever having designed them the way they did! DOES NOT match the car, at all! angles and lines on it are more akin to the toupe than the hatch.

Haha, yeah they are 225/45-17
I originally had them on my IS200, which has bigger wheelwells. But ive got a new set of 17" GTR-sized Cr Kai's going on it soon tho, which will have 215-40 Valino Pergea's

Bro...what?!

The addition of the wing to the original aero update the 180SX received at the time it came out in 1996 is what made that silhouette timeless. Side profile of that design needs the wing, without the wing it's just old.

Rules.

LazyStance · 10-11-2022, 01:32 AM

Im gonna do a makeover of my S13 for next summerseason.
I was thinking GT-1 frontlip, Hotroad skirts and rear aeroparts, and on top of that i might do a Kazama-style S15 wing (centerleg delete)

I think that would look like a very cool combo, and make it a bit more "modern-ish" Type X Kouki-esque.

P.S. GOT DANG there are some clean S13s here

That car looks amazing! especially the extended frontlip. Do you have an IG to follow or some more pictures of the car?

basically both cars are great looking, but the wheel fitment really just ruins both... however, its just my opinion

my preference, meatier tires that actually get the cars power to the ground instead of causing it to roast tires in the 300hp range

Stumbled across this post and wish it got more attention.
There are so many nice cars in this thread but it hurts my heart seeing how many of them have been thrashed or ruined by running low ass cars with super wide wheels with aggressive camber. I hope the new trend is to follow this style which is function over form

Yea it?s a good thread, it?s a bit extreme on the other hand lol. I had wide body with 18x11 wheels too.
I wish more people aimed for functional street cars with 3-400hp

Zacks240sx · 03-03-2023, 06:29 PM

i think this will work

im new here lol

AKsamuraiS14 · 03-25-2023, 07:38 AM

Does anyone have an example of a car sporting Sexy Style rear & sides w/ Kouki/Hot Road/Ezo-Ism front?

aaand rules:

Snilssson · 12-19-2023, 11:46 PM

OEM front bumper, rep FRP rest of the way. Got the wing laying around too.

CMann1010 · 02-09-2024, 11:59 AM

I know nobody uses this anymore, but I've been waiting for the chance to finally be able to post my car in the kouki aero thread for years.

Maybe it'll be all one color in another few years :^)

deolio · 02-09-2024, 04:51 PM

Looks like it'll be worth the wait!
