yo guys,

i might be able to pick up a fairly cheap 200sx s13.

its light goldish, has a new set of 14'' or 15'' wheels. i get the old set with the car aswell(the original wheels).

good points
-CA18DET red top
-no engine modification or history of modification(yes even an stock exhaust system)
-clean interior
-full history, engine rebuilt about 30k miles ago, new (stock) turbo.
-my bosses car:)
-will get new MOT, brakes, cambelt etc getting cleaned and new pads

bad points:
-131000 miles
-rust hole in the trunk. about 1'' big, total rust spot is about 2"..
-it has been sitting still for 3 years. its running, but i'll probally order new igniton etc for it as soon when i have it.
-rubber spoiler!
-i dont fit in the car(6'8'' what the hell! i dont fit in any car basicly...)

what i need to do to it:

-exhaust system(looking for a complete blitz or HKS system...anyone experience with fujitsubo?)
-strip it and move the seat rails so i can actually drive it.
-tein drift suspension
-roll cage
-4 point harness(it already has 2 nice seats in it)
-intercooler
-ecu
-downpipe
-de-cat it:)

thats it, will be building it on a period of 2-3 years.

he needs a new clutch before he can drive it again though. he will see how much he likes it, and then he'll make his decision(he run it last week, it sounded great!..he couldnt drive it because he bought it without the clutch:(

Sounds pretty good all around cond.....HOLY $H1T!! 6'8" damn man!lol......if the car is under $2000 i think its pretty worth it. That car can be really sick! Is it a fastback or a coupe? you say 131xxx miles BAD???What year is the car? My 89' SIL-80 has 260000kms and its in good shape so....sounds pretty descent!Let me know what u do.

well it sure is under $2000. its because its my boss' car, he's a mechanic aswell so he knows what he's doing. 130K miles is about 210k kms. im in the UK at the moment, so its an S13 hatch (i think it wasnt even sold here as a coupe! only the imported from japan are!). being in the UK, it standard has a CA18det in there (the imported 180sx, has a sr20det in there, it makes no sence though, 200 sx =1.8 litres, 180sx = 2.0 litres lol). its also RHD.

i think i shouldnt worry to much about the milage though. if it does blow, CA18det's , sr20's and even rb's are really cheap here. so if i blow it after two years and i still fancy having the car (and finances...) it probally will have a RB25 or 26 in there... but it probally wouldnt because by that time i probally want a slightly newer(japaneze!) car...
