Nissan 200SX Club - South Africa

hey guys not sure if this has been posted yet.

really interested in getting a s14 but need info with people that own it.
hows running cost
is it reliable
are parts easy to find
where do you get upgrades

just more info dont want to just jump into any of this with out knowing.

i would really appreciate the help

ps kinda also interested in a s13

running cost same as any performance car

reliable you dont mix the word reliable and sx together

you will become a skilled parts hunter and be sourced by all parts locating agencys around the world as looking so sx parts is a trade test

you get upgrades from reikert bwaaah had to say that its like saying where do you get bread well theres sar pick n pay bla bla bla they around


hope it helps

look had my fair share of performance cars last was a white A3 1.8t with a craap load of mods but with audi parts are easy its like vw

just curious hey


know my way round a engine bay

then you will be fine

thanks mate..... now to find one lol

where theres a will theres a way

the question is not to find one its to find a un butcherd one now that will be your lifes greatest quest

the last week iv been trying hey its kaaaaaaak

not in a rush arm stil in a sling lol

Here are a few things to expect with any 200 SX

1. Expect to pay like you have no family
2. Expect that there is more wrong with it than the obvious
3. Expect that you will find atleast 3 bad tuners before u find a good one
4. Expect to send it back to the tuner a few day / weeks after you get it back from the tuner
5. Expect it to cost more than u expected
6. Expect to not drive it for atleast the firs 18 months or there about
And lastly,
7. Expect it to be a never ending circle of of pain kinda like having sex, a few minutes of fun followed by months of dry spels, pain + heavy bills

If u can handle that, then only consider buying one...

Hope it helps. And honestly you would need a real love of these cars specifically to keep it

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm im not sure im liking this wonder if it will be more maintanance then my audi....... was working on it every weekend and my vr6's evert 2 or 3rd days

Mine never gave me shit I can say driving a A4 audi is alot more maintenance

this what i had and now this is what i got...



im willing to take a chance on a sx thou..... hmmm

Then the S14 is the way to go... younger, less km(normally) ect than the S13. so just find a nice stock one if you can. or otherwise something like ljs14 or BR25SX's?

Why don't You try Import a S14a or s15 ????

depends on what sx you have, find a good one, hate to jynx myself, but had mine for 9months and not ONE problem.

couldnt be happier with mine.

i think the best deal would be RB25SX's s14 with the rb25det conversion. heaps of power, got all the goodies, and shouldnt give much hassles.

what are you intending for the car?weekend toy, daily drive, track toy?
