Nissan 200SX Club - South Africa

Hey there, Well I sold my Sentra neo vvl and bought this for a daily drive. Bought it in the freestate towed it back here in pta cause of the owner suspected a bearing knock. Busy fixing it up now, turns out the engine have piston slap causing the noise. I stip the engine complete and in the progress of rebuilding it. So far the gearbox is getting redone and recon the propshaft. Redid the whole interior fixing loose things and missing bolts ect.. Replaced this broken panels that i bought from Enzio this weekend, still alot of stuff to do but getting there slowly.

Okay its a Nissan 200sx s13 with Sr20det swop.
Got a t3/t4 turbo,63mm exhaust,dicktator management,intercooler,ali boost pipes,button clutch, afpr.ect..

It does look like it hey.?.?
@Venom: Good luck with the build.

Good luck man!! The car really looks neat!!! Get that SR running asap

Close, but no cigar, it was the S13 I had for a short bit, I bought from Donovan from the forum and I rekon you got it from Elton in the freestate?

Here is the FS thread and the build thread, sadly the image hosting I was using seems to have dissapeared.

The car had knock when I bought it, we rebuilt the motor right, resleeved etc etc. at the time the engineer I used found the oil pump was in spec and didnt need to be replaced, but if its run bearings again (Though its been 2 - 3 years since I sold it) its definately time to look at a new pump or even an uprated pump.

The car had some good bits and some not so good bits, I was in the market for a drifter so didnt care much.

How much did you pick it up for if I may ask?

hope u can get this thing running soon man

Thats the car.. bought it from Elton in the freestate, honestly there where a whole lot of things wrong when i bought it. Since then i stripped the whole interior and redid the wirring and rerouted everything. Made a new harness for the management since the guy cable tied it under the steering colum. I bought pannels for the interior replacing every broken panel inside, Busy carbon wrapping the interior and installed some sound and a GReddy profec spec b boost controller. Found a vibration when towed the car back, turns out the bush on the extension housing of the g/box worn out end up damaging the propshaft. So recon the propshaft and g/box last week, this week busy with the engine prob going to resleeve it again since there is piston slap and put another set of pistons and rods in. The Mains is already at .25 oversize and big ends at .50 oversize. I want everything std again so rebuilding completely with cometic gaskets, original oil pump, acl bearings, balance, head flow, GTiR throttles, GReddy RAS, new boostpipes, old ones bended and leaking boost

Need to get a bumper stiffner to secure bumper since intercooler was fitted with no stiffner making the bumper sagg

next on my list Smash and grab tint, carbon bonnet, repainted bumper and bootlid.

@ Sokar i paid R37 000 for it

Sheesh, well then its been "thouroughly enjoyed" since I sold it. I paid R50k for it with the bearing knock so I still think you have a bit of a bargain there.

I also has an issue with the speed sensor, it was out of an auto box apparently and read half of what it should (40 when you're doing 80 etc)

Even with all the niggles it still put 150kw on the rear wheels and the screamer pipe always made me smile

Nice, will keep updating but want it perfect again..

Did a small video of the sx but still alot of things to do before its ready
