Hey People, i'm in the market for a new project... I've narrowed it down to eithe a 180sx or a Liberty RS Turbo... I cant find and decent specs on either of these, so i'm wondering if anyone has any info on either of these cars... Cheers...

I know the RS Turbo had a recall, a problem with the heads.

I love the Liberty RS Turbo's. Don't see many of them around, and they have that great WRX sound

no they don't have the wrx sound... they have the sound of the boxster engine Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Well I would go a Liberty RS.. they are something differnce because im seeing alot of 180's around town now days.. On the other hand you can pick up a nice 180 for alot less than a liberty turbo.. Plus liberty parts can be expensive.. 180 is more sporty but RS has room for plenty of chicks to ride.. All comes down to personal choice but I would go the RS for someting differnt.... pSSshhhhhhSHHHHH Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

drive both, then review the car in your own terms. Buy mags for some info on both, or find it on the net. Both are VERY different cars, handle and drive differently. I can tell you to buy either car or a donkey instead, so its an ambiguous question, and one that YOU have to sortout using a through process.

Thanks for the info and ideas... but does anyone know where i can find these specs on the net?? i have looked but i can't find anything decent...

You're not gonna get any action in the backseat of a 180. It's not just wether she can fit her tight arse in there, the pressing issue is wether you can BOTH fit in there!! 8) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Asif u can't get action... just put ur passenger seat down... squish her face into the backseat, do her doggy get her to squeeze on it and u will be gone b4 u have to even worry about the comfort factor Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

You don't need a back seat to get some........ The front seat works just as well........ Besides a car is for driving, if you need a chick in the car to have fun, then your car isn't fast enough........ I really need some info on performance specs.....

Ah well.... i know why young blokes upgrade to VS's.... the VL Back seat is small as and the VS is Huge, perfect position of headrests, and door handles to Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i would much rather a 180sx over a 200sx personally. i would probably go liberty over 180 coz ive always loved em.

Interesting discussion here, my old man just told me he's bought a brand spanking new Liberty RX with the B4 suspension, Sports seats, and MOMO Wheel... oh and STi Gold rims. Can't wait for delivery day.

it depends what you want .... traction or no traction. In standard form one has traction, the other lots of wheelspin. Personally I'd go the 180. subaru's have a tendency to break drivetrains when you put more power than standard through them.

Well i had this discussion with a mate last nite Rs turbo: grip, 4dr, better price, chasis, practically it, Safer for drivers, boxer sound. Cons: abit dated styling, average brakes, insurance. 180sx: 2dr coupe (ful sik), faster, can get more power outta it cheaper then rs. Cons: Stupid ass prices people ask for s13 ( much better buying 200sx ), crappy brakes, rwd lsd and tailhappy ( ur gunna smash it if ur not careful ), insurance. This was coming from a dude that has been envolved in motorsport for nearly 10 years. Has had a rs and 200sx, (been in many 180sx). He said the 4wd has got him out of many sticky situations where as the rwd would have killed him. And he has known many good drivers stuff up (smash) in 180sx/200sx that 4wd would have prevented. He said u might think those "sticky" situations in a 180sx would be fun..... until u smash it :?

try either of these mate for specs www.autospeed.com - i think they have a review on the rs turbo, but you might have to pay for it, im not totally sure. www.rwdturbo.com - this site has reviews on cars and on the main page is a review link on the left. try that otherwise, on the same site, go to members on the main page, and click on the dude named stevo - he owns the red rs turbo. it has some specs there as well cheers!
