Pedestal - Josh’s 180sx
Welcome to a brand new section of 180sx.co.uk, Pedestal!
Pedestal is a section of the site devoted to the best 180sx’s in the world.
These cars should be held up as an example to all 180sx enthusiasts as what can be achieved with enough devotion, time and of course - cash!
Josh’s 180sx is a well known car in the US scene and now photo’s of it are starting to pop up over here in the UK as well. The car is heavily modified with prime Japanese parts however Josh has created his own unique style using a mix of paint, bodykits, wheels and stickers.
This has got to be one of the sexiest, badass and unique 180sx’s in existence and I feel it rightly deserves the accolade of our first ever pedestal feature. Josh should feel rightly proud to have created this master class of 180sx.
As far as I know nobody has featured this car on a UK website so enjoy our technical run down and feast your eyes on the photos

Take note people! This is how S13s should be modified
laze says:
Beautiful wheels in the first image.
Do you know what the rear quarters are? They look different to yours Joe and without wanting to hurt your feelings - I prefer them.
This is where you tell me they’re the same as yours and I look like an pratt isn’t it?
laze.
Quail says:
They’re Origin Tatakadasi, Laze
Joe says:
Haha no prob with hurting my feelings Laze
I have some other pics and from what I can tell they are identical to mine, perhaps mine are Origin copies?

hey guys, the rear over fenders are Origin Tatakadasi, they are 50mm, the real difference between the rest is they have a slight roll/pull on the fender which gives it a more natural metal look than just a huge flat over fender. I originally did not plan running over fenders untill the guys at origin told me they were going to release these =)

I’m quite fond of the Type II fenders with the additional lip, it’s a toss up between the Type IIIs and IIs for me.
