Introduction
Thought I'd put a thread up of what I'm (reluctantly) rolling in now 
I fell in love with drifting and I wanted a proper classy car like a PS13 or an rx-7, but common sense told me that if i got a super-cool car, I would be gutted if I stuffed it!
So one night last september I saw this on ebay, took a chance, and got it transported all the way up from southampton
This is exactly how I bought it:
CAR SPECIFICATIONS:
- Model : Nissan 200sx s14
- Engine size :1998 16v SR20DET
- Mileage: 78,000
- Year : 1996
- Colour : Metallic purple
ENGINE MODIFICATIONS :
(not sure here what is definite - "apparently" Full build, 2.1, forged pistons, strengthened lightened balanced con rods, flat planned race crank, new bearings throughout, lightened and balanced flywheel, ap paddle clutch, ported polished and gas flowed cylinder head, bronze valve guides, nismo steel head gasket, nismo tc gasket kit throughout, garrett gt roller bearing turbo, s/steel exhaust, induction kit, new tappets, new timing chain. But not many receipts to prove it all!)
What i know so far:
- Wiseco forged oversize pistons
- Garrett GT28R turbo
- Full stainless exhaust
- AP Racing Paddle clutch
- Cone filter
- New timing chain
STYLING MODIFICATIONS:
- None
INTERIOR:
- None (standard leather is imacculate though!)
CHASSIS:
- Standard suspension
- Possible LSD or maybe just a well working viscous diff
- Lenso multispoke pimptastic wheels
- grooved discs all round
ICE:
- Sony HU with 6 CD changer in boot
- Infinity components all round
Now I have done quite a lot of work to it since then, and done a couple of drift days in it, its absolutely ace
Now that the punto is getting a rebuilt engine, I have to use it as a daily... its both good and bad... fast, but FAR from refined!!! Current spec to come.
