I also remember visiting Nissan's japanese corp. website a few years back and seeing 'Lucino' on the 200SX when it was still for sale, but I just became more puzzled and dismissed the name. They didn't sell many Lucinos in Japan did they? I remember seeing one or two photos of parts for it in Options magazine, but that was about it.

Yeah, when I went to japan I saw 2 lucino's over the course of an entire month. Not a big seller. Pretty easy to see why; why buy a lucino when you can buy a silvia K's?
I saw one option video where they had a turboed lucino. It mustered low 15's on a slipping clutch. Coverage like that definately won't aid in it's popularity (lack of) in japan. Oh well, they killed it anway

I never have understood why most people think the 200sx is so ugly. Of course, I am biased because I own one.

Nice car, is that the older Stillen kit? I used to have a 200 as well, and I really did enjoy it. Of course, the look had to grow on me, but when it did I really hated that I had to sell it (to pay off some excessive debts). I see now that VIS carries a front fascia which looks like the Skyline GT-R's nose end. Too bad I don't have one anymore, I would have bought this kit. (not the Xtreme kit, I think the Octane one)
