Hi Guys

Ive finaly desided to take my 200sx off the road and use it as i donor,

Here it is
http://i916.photobucket.com/albums/ad8/vfr400/200sx%20S13/Carpics026.jpg

Its completely standard and only covered 67k this is my 3rd s13 200sx i also have some other parts from my s14a 200sx i would like to use if possible like the LSD,shafts and the bigger s14 turbo.

I have rebuilt many cars but this is my 1st kit car so i have cheated buy using a semi completed chassis that i can modify.

Any advice and input will be greatfully taken onboard :D

Thanks Alasdair

Welcome to the forum


No advice to offer as yet, 'cos you don't seem to have hit any problems yet!

I assume the chassis is Sierra based, and that the idea is to incorporate as much of your donor running gear as possible?

Thats is the plan at the moment the less sierra parts i need to buy the better :D

The front arms will just be the usual set up but the rear track will be a bit wider using the s14a diff and shafts so i will need longer arms on the rear:confused:

Ill cross that when i get there as for now im going to lay the drive train out and see wot needs modifyed on the chassis to make it fit.
