Project SLY S14

Post by sly gxi »

howsit guys

been on forum for a while but hardly have access from work. anyway decided to intro my sx.

So after having the DET Sabre for 1 and a half years, i wanted more fun, so decided to switch from fwd car to a rwd car. eventaully i let go of the sabre, (still miss the car like mad) but luckily im intouch with new owner, so get to see the car now and then.

i couldnt decide what to buy after selling the sabre, but i wanted to stick to nissan.according to my budget my options were:

-Nissan 200sx s13(with sr20det,not a fan of ca18det)
-Nissan 200sx s14
-bmw E36 m3

from these i chose S14, cause it nissan, turbo so better at altitude, and it didnt have pop up lights(dont really like pop ups)

after searching day and night for a clean s14 i gave up couldnt find dust

eventaully got a pm from someone who had the s14 i wanted a white 1995 model (he bought this car the day i went to view it when it was for sale). and to my luck he decided to sell to me as he had other priorities,so fly to cape town on the 16th of june 2012. and made payment on the 20th of june 2012.

since then ive had some minor issues here and there but slowly managed to sort them out and add some extraz to the car along the way
