yeah needs lowering, a wheel bearing and a exhaust system

im pretty sure its been resprayed, and the boot has been de-spoilered and painted black "which will need re-doing"


its not perfect and has lil bits of rust, but its a 1990 and came with 10 spare wheels a set of sideskirts and the 18's you see it on there so im happy

im not goin anywhere for next 4 weeks so itll give me time to sell the sport and use some of that money to tidy the nissan up

coilover are far from cheap for this car as i now realise lol

ppl go on about £350 for a top range fixed rate kit for a corsa.
£550 is about the entry price for a half decent kit for these

Love them cars, you must be good at doing oil changes by now

Can get a front light coversion kit which takes away the flip up ones and replaces them with smooth ones.
Want to own one of them cars one day and think the s13 is the best looking of them all

But Adam you will spend money on this now. Why not just save for the car you want and use a shitter to get about in.

I'm sure your family and mates have work for you to do on their cars to keep you entertained in the mean time.

plus this is a step towards the s14a
as if i went from a100 odd bhp corsa to a 200bhp rwd s14a chances are ill bend it.

this way ill get used to a small power increase and get used to rwd again, if i damage this it wont be half as costly as damageing a 7k s14a

You will not bend it unless you are a complete prick!

Who gets in a new car they have just spent good money on and starts booting it about

have you driven a rwd turbo car andrew?

answer that before you start getting on your high horse.

its not a case of booting it about, i have known ppl who have had these cars years and its come on boost at the wrong moment and spat them into a kerb.

and im talking about the size of it aswell not just the power, going from a corsa b to a 200sx is a big jump the car size wise is massive, you cant see how hard it is tyo get used to manouve-ing the thing till you sit in one.

bad day andrew? you seem awfully negative.
