It is a work inprogress, This is its 6th motor swap. orginal motor ,z24 ,12a, 13b, vg30 and now 3tc. Its a box frame car with a body on top , 280zx trailing arm irs with r200 lsd with 3.54 , w50 trans and 3tc motor, still mounting the set up. Hope to keep the weigh around 2000 lbs. Setting the car up for road course and auto-x ing and the 1/4 mile just to see what it's got. It's not the prettiest car but we have some history. The car was built by Hux racing back in the early 90's and now Ive owned it for 7-8 years.

Welcome! Great to see another S110 project!! I don't think there are more S110 fanatics in the world, are there?

Do you have a spare-front-grill? I like those USA-style!

It think your right , I keep the emblems on the car just so people will know what it is! Not alotta love for the good old s110, these cars come from the factory lookin low to the ground , some rims and a little drop to it and it's right! I sorta wish I went with the sr20 , it looks right at home in there. My car is a miss match of parts anyway, but the motor is from the 80's . There is two more people I have talk to that have love for s110 , one is a guy from south Florida that has a imsa 200sx with a turbo l20 motor and another guy in Georgia that races them and has a large collection of parts new and old. I will keep an eye out for that grill.
