About me...
My name is Tom, nickname as Zoom. I'm 24 and I'm working at body repair shop garage, my job role to replace damaged parts. My paycheck use be every Monday. I was 13 as I starting become teen, I love to saving money and I help other people like, do garden, cleaning car, house work, etc till I finish my college (quite bit struggle because my English wasn't good) and starting join body repair garage job till now, I has been saving to 20,000 V$. I was bored and I wanted to get car.

I remember I was kid, I saw on car books (yea plus Max Power, where is half naked ladies there. :D ) about S Chassis, I being fall love it. I dream to own S13 because I love pop up headlight and good looking car. I knew today price would be rough about 10,000 V$ road legal S13 so, I live Hove, UK it mean it call "200sx". UK spec you get 1.8 liter turbo (CA18DET) for only S13 but later on S14 and S15 get SR20DET.

I was strolling on car sales website like Gumtree, eBay, auto trader, etc. I found cheap 200sx for 1,220 V$ but it still bidding, anything it went over 2,000 V$, I would walk off because it need welding done and sorting out MOT.


This photo came from: *LINK* .

Seller said it have problem:
> Corrosion sills.
> Exterior some rust started on boot, front wing and rear arch.
> It has problem with clutch release making slight noise.
> It got crack front windscreen passenger side.
> Some paint show wearing off.

It has been sitting outside for about 8 years and it need some love. Hopeful I could buy this car less than 2,000 V$. Give them good welding, respray, and refresh fluids and service (or maybe I swap engine?).

Anything idea to that 200sx to become something like sleeper, drift, or track car, etc?
