Buying this car will be tight my budget, after I doing surfing a websites and I found very promise look S13. It was red, pretty low mileage (72k miles), and it was great runner sadly engine are CA18DE, it was perfect within budget.

The car was base on Norwich, few miles down the road from Norwich train station, I have paid 73 V£ (Proof: http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/service/timesandfares/NMP/NRW/today/1945/dep ) fares to Norwich train station overall my journey time was 4 hours on the train, and 2 and 45 mins to way back (thanks road work!). I'm too tired to taking photo.

I'm thinking install aftermarket exhaust (More likely I using HKS), and maybe I change steering wheel but I would check overall my car first, make sure there nothing to hide faulty.

UK? It seems since I started my original RP, there have been more and more RPs based in the United Kingdom.

Anyway, are you going to upload pictures soon? If so, please use the Vstanced Uploader.

Also, in the case that its a CA18DE, I've got a mod for that, so maybe its not all so bad.

What a lovely morning, I'm washing and waxing off my 200SX, sadly front end painting wrong paint code. It should be bit darker red, not lighter then my friend told me, he got JVC radio for sale which cost me 50 V£, it was came off from his VW Golf Mk3, so I bought it for my S13 with careful correct connect the wires and taping around a metals (So I won't get short circuits). Once I finish wiring up same time, he left. I'm taking the photos, in front of my friend house.

I was huge fan of Type X body kit, I found for sale, it was local for me.

Looks so damn clean, I also love the type x kit and I can't wait to see it once it's done. What rims are you looking to get on the 200sx?

Hey, what up? Type x now finish painting, I'm quite impressed how it does look, and perfect matched paint. I re-fitting parts that I bought yesterday, I'm good with welding, so I could change angle exit back box, but sound will be same also Nissan front badge was re-used from other front bumper. I need lower my car and nice rims, but more likely after new year because winter are coming up.

I think that end of day today!

FlammableRices

Quick update & plan! 😃

So, winter are coming, I lets my S13 to sleeps till after new years, so salt won't eats my S13. 🙁

Plan; So, my S13 will lock up at my garage, so here plan;
Buy SR20DET - Strip to bare block and head - Clean Parts - Replaced seal, gasket and broken parts - Rebuild it
Block and head going be sent to professional engine machine, to flatter head and block (where head gasket are lay), clean up ports, re-bore etc.
I would tune new engine to 300-400 bhp, I don't want to f*ck up fresh re-build engine like haggard garage the eBay gangs...
I would replace shock and spring, brake system, and fresh wheels.

That overall plans would be likely till before Christmas, because it not very simple plans.
I may looking other car use for winter, shall I buy shit car? 🙂)
I'm happy to share your feedback! 😃

Snowyy

a winter beater is a good idea

JF1

We own ~~several~~ mostly beaters. At least externally.

casino

Beaters are brilliant. I found you this for V$600 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1991-Honda-CRX-/172908671584?hash=item284228f260:g:bO8AAOSwQm9ZwTvT&vxp=mtr , but you'll probably need to pay V$900 to seal the deal earlier than when the bidding ends. If you pay me V$250, I'll chuck it in with my delivery from the US to Northampton http://www.ebay.com/itm/1995-Nissan-240SX-/172835930369?hash=item283dd30101:g:aMIAAOSwh81Znulk&vxp=mtr and drop it at yours. That's much cheaper than if you were to arrange it yourself.
