    How about posting your build stuff over here. Not to keen on cross-referencing from one board to another. Thanks. Later, QD.

    had one of those except it was the v6 variant, and they are not too comfortable at 130 mph.

    thought it would be easier to just reference that then to go through the whole thing again.

    I WISH, when nissan introduced the S13, they redesigned the rear suspension to correct this. I wish they could interchange, but oh well. luckily the S13 front end is. So when the money allows, COILOVERS!

    How is that supposed to make things "all better?" I thought you were wanting to end the bout? If not, we can take this to another section. If so, quit editing your posts to take shots at me. Later, QD.

    The 200sx or s12, is a cool car. The 4 cylinder and the turbo variant can be made to handle pretty good. You should have brought it to the Old Skool meet. You would have been the only one there. Keep working on it, it will make for a great car .

    Yeah, Ive got the JDM CA18DET in her with a hybrid-split inlet turbonetics turbo.
    Unsure of HP yet, needs tuning. I wanted to go, but I had already made plans to go to Judgement Journey down in LaGrange.

    These are hard to find in decent shape but you can swap in quite a few different Nissan motors. I've heard that some S13 suspension components will work with the S12 but I'm not sure on the specifics.

    pretty much all the S13 front is swappable. the rear is also with MAJOR modification.

    I've got an old 1982 200sx coupe. It's the version with the four rectangle headlights. It also has the " bing...Lights are on." voice system. It runs but it needs alot of work.
