ok, so the s12 build begins! - idontgoslow - 06.12.2011 01.29 AM

ok, its time for the s12 build thread to begin.

today, me and a buddy got my 1987 200sx turbo out to work on it. (finally)
woke up at 8, got a engine hoist, came back at 10, and took the hood off, disconnected the motor from the tranny, took off the header, got the turbo off, (blew the turbo) went to yelm to buy a turbo, (wouldnt work) so came back home empty handed, and came to a screeching halt.
now im getting a t25 turbo from a ca18det from a friend of mine, (kyle ridout) monday, and is gonna drive the s12 to the forum fest.

pictures will be up soon as possible.
future plans include fmic, bov, and push 8lbs of poost, nothing to crazy, its gonna be my daily, and 17 inch rotas with deep lip wheels. havent decided what kind yet, probably because im building this thing on a budget lol.

comments are good to hear.
i think im the only one on this forum with a 200sx lol well, my body style anyways.
tell me what you guys think, questions and comments are welcome!
thanks!!

exhaust...

she needs new wheels and tires. im thinkin 17's of some sort, my blitz bov, and subs and a stereo.
quick release steering wheel, and new seats, new shift knob, maybe a front lip.

shes gonna be alot different after im done. but money right now is hard to get. its a slow build, but its definitely happening slowly. thanks for your comments guys, i really appreciate it.
