chris's 200sx - Chri5 - 15-08-2018
well i've had this car for about a month now and i've not done anything to it apart from fitting an engine damper.
however i have been chatting to the previous previous owner who did all the hard work and he's sent me a lot of the pictures of it being built so i thought you might like to see the transformation thats taken place upto this point.
how the car started life

next step was wheels and exhaust

followed by the arrival of the very large intercooler, alloy radiator with 12" electric fans and coilovers

next step was the exedy 6 paddle clutch and lightened flywheel

then the bodykit arrived so the car spent the next few weeks having it fitted and a complete respray.

a few other bits and pieces turned up and were promptly fitted to her
the nismo gearknob, apexi boost controller and a purple beanie hat was used to replace the crappy leather aged gear gaitor
also a small sub enclosure was fitted into the part of the boot that never gets used. fits in there perfectly :thumbup:
and the wheels were also refurbed to bring them upto scratch
there has been a lot of other bits and pieces fitted to the car over time that havent had pictures taken for and there is a few plans for it still. these being rear overfenders, wider rear wheels and rear wheels putting on the front.plus a few other trick bits :thumbup:
but this is how it stands to date :thumbup: hope you enjoy

How is it running chris??
chris's 200sx - Chri5 - 15-08-2018
It's running spot on Phil
Was a bit stuttery but I altered the boost to 0.9 from 0.6bar on the controller.
I think it's only been set up on the higher boost tbh.
Got no leaks, don't use water or oil
My only real problem is the gearbox synchro from 1st to 2nd. But that's a common problem.
Not too bothered by it tho as 2nd boxes can be picked up easy enough for about £80-£100
chris's 200sx - Phil01 - 15-08-2018
and easy enough to fit, should have taken it to thurrock last night, plenty of cars and a few fast motors.
chris's 200sx - abactus - 15-08-2018
nice ride!
i really like this model
chris's 200sx - garyskisplym - 15-08-2018
Very very nice, love 200s, the whole car works, the previous owner must spend hours in looking around to get wheels and body kit that look that nice together.
Gaz

Yeah should only take a few hours
I was gonna go to Thurrock mate.
But I'm still running on guernsey plates so figured it's not worth the hassle.

One of my favourite cars mate
