Item: 95 model Nissan 200sx s14 - Mid spec (I think) as it has ABS but no sunroof

Condition: Used, but soild overall mechanically. Body has two marks listed below. Comes back from the mechanic tomorrow after a pre-blue slip check over so its good to go.

Location: Near Hornsby, (10mins from the M2 so no excuse for the westies not to get in on it)

Kms: 209k on the body, around 110 on the donk. Water line on the turbo failed on the first engine caused it to cook. JDM replacement.

Comments: I bought this thing about 2 yrs with the intention of turning it into a dedicated track car. I bought lots of go fast jap bits but never really got around to finishing it off. I ended driving it a total of 1000kms and now i've bought a GTR recently so its on the list to go.

Price: 7k as is no rego - Can discuss options for a blue slip however it is ready for an inspection (factory airbox etc)

Pics: I'll grab some tomorrow - Its the factory green colour with a high spec front bar, side skirts.

Specs:

Brakes

Front - r32 GTR calipers & rotors (296mm)

Rear - Project MU pads & slotted rotors (Done about 300kms in total, so basically new)

Braided lines front & back - Also done about 300kms

Spent about a 1k on the brakes from memory

Suspension & Wheels

S15 springs & shocks

Whiteline swaybars front and rear, close to new

-Polyurethane 'drift pineapples' diff cradle bushes

Front (engine bay) strut brace - unsure of brand

Z32 rims all round which are 16x7.5 with 225/50's

Whilst the suspension is not hugely modified its a good street/occasional track day setup

Engine

300km old Garrett ball bearing turbo

Brand new s15 metal gaskets (ext manifold, turbo & dump - $300+ just in that)

Front mount - china kit of some sort

Brand new braided oil & water lines

3" dump into 3" mandrel system - Build in AU and it's tucked under the car nicely and doesnt drone at all. Very good quality.

HKS boost controller

Brand new uni filter and pod - stock air box as well for rego

Very new 40mm koyo radiator - Still retains standard fan shroud

- Dropped a fair bit of coin on the above for the sake of reliability rather then outright horsepower.

Driveline

-S15 diff (Helical LSD, not the gay type that doesnt work as per stock 13/14's)

- Genuine C's short shifter

- Heavy duty clutch of some type, about 10k kms old.

Interior

Overall in good nick for its age.

Momo Wheel, A pillar boost guage

Nismo gear knob

Decent quality Stereo of some sort (output not working, IE no sound but all the stuff is in place head unit, tweeters mids etc)

Spares

S15 fuel pump & Brake master

Various interior parts like centre consoles and stereo surrounds

2 fibreglass front bars

There will be more shit once I go through the car part shed

Body

Overall in good nick with the exception of two blemishes. Passenger side, rear wheel well as a scrap from the previous owner brushing a pole in a car park. I then added to the highlights on this side a scratch/dent on the rear qtr. Pics will show the details.

Car has professionally rolled guards all round as has run 17x9+20 with 235's all round without an issue.

In Summary:

This thing would be perfect for someone looking for sub 10k track car. It was rego'd when I bought it but as I was planning to go all out on it I let it lapse. This an ADM car so insurance is not too pricey.

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
