I got tired of the black and decided to go back to oem color to keep it original.

Any updates on mods?

Repainted the grill and intake cleaned up the motor got some small things coming for christmas my fiancee got for me but ain't had alot of money to mod so not to much going on trying to fix the small leak in the sunroof.

 

[MizuShinobi303]

[hemifan87]

well I may be taking a break on the versa for a bit lol. Might save up and put the money and put it into one big mod for the 200sx. now i just got to figure out how long i will need to save for lol

Club-S12.org v3.0 - my 1uz swap

 

[MizuShinobi303]

What do you think you will mod it with

 

[hemifan87]

i dont know what engines are out there but that one in the link looks good and its got a walk through on how to do it

If I were to get a project, I'd go with the s14 or s15. I like both of those. I'm not a fan of flip-up headlights. I really like the 14 though. Good luck with the project!

I want this one http://maine.craigslist.org/cto/2684206133.html

yeah thats a nice car and a car in Maine with no rust Id grab it lol, I dont know what it is about the s12 that I like maybe its cause its differant but I see so many 240s built up here and I dont want to blend in that much. I do think it neat that Im drawn to this car, after I got it I found out that after I was born the car I was brought home in was a red s12 notch with a 2.0 5 speed (same as mine), also I found out this one I have was made the same month and year that I was born this car already means alot to me lol, its even got a hubcap on it from the one I was brought home in. oh and I love the flip up headlights lol thats like the coolest part on the car to me.

 

[athikerguy4life]

If I had the money I'd be all over that car.

well I have been meaning to repaint the wheels on the 200sx they are all scratched up from years of use and starting to rust so untill I get new rims for it prolly in feb. Im planing on getting some "snowflake" wheels for it they are a factory wheel but the look good on it. anyway on to the pics let me know what you think.

and a closeup

 

[MizuShinobi303]

Wheels look really good! I totally agree with you that flip up headlights are sick. Its the main reason I like the s12 and s13. But I like the s12 more because it makes me think of a supra of the same year but better looking. That may be the badge talking since I prefer nissan over all other makes but anyway.

Your hard work paid off, they look great! Gonna do the peeling trim too? It'll look fantastic:thumb2:
Gotta have a smile about the pop-ups. To me, they're part of the 80s that should stay in the 80s:smilielol5:. I like the jdm flush faces better[Silvia etc], but that just me. Can't wait to see new rims:ihih:

 

[hemifan87]

Yeah I'm fixing it up alittle at a time lol next up is trim and the black between the side windows

 

[hemifan87]

No this isn't our car it's my parents old car the one I was brought home from the hospital in when I was a baby I just found the pics and thought I would share them, the one me and my wife have is exactly the same.

and to compare this is me and my wifes

I havent done a whole lot to the 200 recently since I dont have the extra money the trim has been painted and I replaced the rear speakers a while ago, I have a problem with the parking brake the rear calipers were locked up I got the right side to work but I think the left side is shot and I need to replace the left side mirror.

 

[Kurtis2112]

Car looks great. Cant wait to see the build

 

[hemifan87]

ordered a new left side rear caliper today going to start working on this again on the list is left side mirror and a battery get it legal and able to get on the road again then start on the fun stuff also need a new seal for the sunroof after the hard rain today I found a small lake that used to be the center consul lol.

 

[hemifan87]

we I replaced the left rear caliper the other day and found the cable is bad too so I will be ordering that then I need to get a new mirror for the left side or get new aftermarket mirrors then a battery and she should be good for the road again.

 

[hemifan87]

well I got a new side mirror glass its not perfect but it works

 

[neohauoli]

Wow...looks like it needs some work...I'm confident you are going to make it pimped out though

 

[hemifan87]

are you talking about the car I have or the one in post #54 cause that one used to be my parents
