My new Beasty... its RED!

[Blue Supra]

Here is my shiny red 200SX.

Im scared of it the wheels lift up so much when you plant it in 1st that the steering wheel feels like theres nothing attached to it. Other then that its smooth and nice and fast and it has everything the datto didnt have such as

Air con
power steer
electric mirrors
electric windows
a turbo
a 5th gear

and a bunch of other stuff. Its only insured for danage to others and fire and theft. that costs $780 a year. the have full coverage it would be $3700 a year. I just cannot afford that.

Only modification to it is a POD filter (see in pic) but i wouldnt mind getting rid of it and putting the stock one back on.

Future mods include
:manifold/exhaust ($2500)
:wheels ($2000)
:a tasteful bodykit ($unknown)
:BOV (gf likes the noise it makes so she'll pay for it ) ($200)

not this month as im poor and need to pay off insurance and rego still. it runs on 95RON so premium or better only. costs me 117.9c a litre the other night

but yes it will get a few runs out at the track for sure

[whiteballz]

me likey. well done on scoring that beast

[clutch-monkey]

so long as you don't look like too much of a tool with that BOV
i'm saving for 2000 type R for use on track days, but my uni costs are crippling me, not sure i can afford it.
are you still going to use your datto as a beater? i mean 117c a litre....damn

You barely notice the pod filter, although still having the intake snorkel there is funny, but it'll make it easier to swap back to the standard intake.

Those suspension towers are just screaming for a strut brace though

The datto is stying where its parked as it gave up the ghost the day before yesterday. wont go into it its a long story but im lucky i got the car that night. Its getting the new engine as soon as i can afford to have it built (2k)

petrol is going to be killer with a 65L tank im predicting $80+ a tank

$180 will get me a front strut brace, im keen on sway bars and stuff but like a said money is tight now

[:Exige:]

Still not as good as a Supra Looks pretty tidy though. Thought of buying a boost controller of some sort? Jam it up to 15psi .. should be good for about 260bhp (then you'll definatley need a BOV to replace the recirc) For the first time in my life, I think it could do with a bit of body kit .. nothing extreme though.

the stock kit isnt very attractive is it? lol.

[TheOne]

nice car blue supra
now take care of it as it does like to spin the tires out of nowhere........even with a 50hp less engine(US spec 240sx, ka24de with 155bhp).
tho ya get the sr20det......i love my truck engine 240sx, nothing like more torque.
