Lewis just go for what u feel u want mate and not what people tell u to get!!!

When i was going to get a cossie it was ether a RS500, Audi Quattro or my saff as i new how nice it was and all the history etc. RS500 i couldnt get insurance and Audi people put me off it buy parts etc etc and theres not many people around who can help out with stuff unlike a cossie

i know what ur sayin rhys!

but i like the s14a a lot & thought about it a while back Lee just brought it back up!

i will more than likly get a saffy! as i think it will b the quiest route to gewttin a 3dr as it will break for more cash or sale easier quicker than a 200sx!

that green 1 is up for 6.5k whihc seems a lot to me!

If u want a 3dr why dont u just wait until u got enough cash?

Failing that go and drive a saff and a 200sx and see what u prefer

Deffo dont get the old style 200 though as they are terrible though u can pick one up for £600

Dont need to do any bodywork, thats why they good, there no need to.

Clear/Smoked indicators, rims, and thats enough.

Get a black one, looks best

Excellent Do you know how long it's been running at that power aswell?

Year and a half? About 15k? And this car is treated like shit, i mean proper shit, and didnt have a service history when it was bought either, and already had about 100k on the clock, only 3500quid on a P plate!

No smoke, no rattles, no nothing, and caned to the rev limiter in most gears and 160+ every bloody day. All its done so far (apart from been crashed twice ) is do 1 clutch and 1 diff, and its driven sideways everywhere, abused worse than a joyrider would, and im not messing.

Another mate had a similar one on a S or T reg (I forget), similar spec, but a low miles minter, was serviced well, but caned just as hard, and that was perfect for about the same miles (turbo-manifold bolts came loose, but nothing else) till he T-Boned a lamppost in the Retailpark sideways at about 60mph while drifitng
Did 13.5 1/4mile too with a missed gearchange too.

same shit as datsuns. mine was running at around 15 psi for 20k all day every day.

and was fine although the Gtir engine is slightly better for running higher boost.

As standard tho, dont expect to be impressed Over about 5500rpm they dead as they exhaust is TERRIBLE, but put a full system on it (TURBO back, no cats, no nothing) and suddenly they free revving to 7500rpm no bother.
Then a nice noisy cone filter.
Both the above will make the boost rise a bit.
Then a good big front mounter as wing mounted cooler is lame and can show 80degC at 1bar boost
Then bash the boost up to 15psi (no need for a chip) and youl be very impressed i reckon.

Same as std looks, boring, but spray the orange indicators in the bumper and wings with tint spray on a black car (or just buy clear ones), and buy some nice rims (18" minimum seriously or it looks daft) and you got one mean looking car that every fucker goes "Is that a skyline?"
