[Behind Horizon´s] 200SX S13 Drift Project...

[Behind Horizon]

Hello guys,

it is a pleasure to me to watch your great projects which gave me a lot of inspiration so i decided to give you something back. I like you guys over here at this board as some of you are very crazy, just as i am.


I think its now my turn to inspirate you guys with my project and i want to introduce it to you, so enjoy it and write what you are thinking of it.


History:

I bought the car back in May '06 it is an '90 RPS13 200SX ,i bought the car without a engine but with a good transmission and a relative good
overall condition. The previos owner ripped the engine out of the car for other purposes.

On the same day i bought a totally damaged '90 S13 A/T but with an good 30.000 km engine in it which was replaced and completly overhauled by nissan.

After we took the engine out of the damaged car and all the good spare parts we brought the car to the scrapjard, so i had one less SX in my garage.

The project:

The car is build up primary for trackdays (grip driving), especially for drifting and for the nicest and curvyiest streets in Black Forrest (Germany).

Before we took care on the upgrading we first fixed all the damages 16 car years had caused. All rust was removed carefully and other little and big problem zones of the car was fixed.

First i want to say that i want the car to be technically superb and want to save the money for expensive bodykits and rims for the first time.

The engine is a full Stage III setup with some goodies i will concentrate on a very good torque curve and response and not on the peak horsepower.

The important thing for me is to do as much as possible by myself and to be as creative as possible whether then spending a lot of money on expensive Parts.
