Hey text me ASAP I'm interested in the shell, i had to sell my seafoam coupe for bills and I'm interered in building another two tone daily!!! 202-701-4949

twotone s13 · 09-03-2013, 10:06 AM

here is my 89 two tone 200sx.

its UK spec as im stationed with the air force in England

Color: Silvery mint green, charcoal gray
Motor: factory CA18det
Tranny: Manual
Sunroof: Yes
HUD: Fully analog
Wing: wingless now not sure of factory

The main reason i am posting on here is because i am trying to find the date of manufacture for my car for when i import it back into the states, im curious as to how you guys all narrowed it down to the month of the year because i cant even find anything tangible saying the year it was built in.

I just figured i would post it here so you guys could have a look at a RHD two tone =] and to let you know i have no plans on changing it other than to freshen the paint up.

Any information on how to find the actual date of manufacture would be incredibly helpful.

Driver side door has a plate with the info.

souljaseth33 · 09-03-2013, 01:37 PM

Put on Enjuku Square G6 today... shows I need coilovers that much more! haha

Duke89 · 09-03-2013, 01:51 PM

^^^^ man I'm soooo jealous if you lol. I want my creamy yellow to have a Silvia front lol. I'm stuck trying to get this damn rb20 to even run. Let alone have a Silvia front.

souljaseth33 · 09-03-2013, 01:57 PM

Lol thanks, not much to be jealous of tho. Silvia front is half ass rattle canned (previous owner), KA is on the way out, and getting more rust by the day haha. My other two tone coupe is the clean one, but that is staying in the garage for a while.

Love the creamy yellow + silvia front. Really sharp car you have there man.

deolio · 09-03-2013, 02:50 PM

those wheels are the worst. make everything they touch look cheap.

Nizmology · 09-03-2013, 11:12 PM

From the 5th annual S-Chassis meet last weekend. I think I was the only two tone there.

chokudoriS13 · 09-04-2013, 12:52 AM

Would look awesome without the fake Japanese plate.

Like under the door panel? Because there isn't one in pain sight. And I'm hoping it won't be too different to find since its UK spec

thanks, I fell in love with the color the first time I saw it, even before I knew It was rare. i'm getting ready to start feeding her money and elbow grease to restore her now..I have the vin/model number decoder already. what did you mean by which car it is? the last 6 digits of the VIN? in that case she's #006936 of 68118.

last 6 digits of your vin. http://garage.projectraine.com/conte.../vinmid01.html for more vin info

T_wo.and.T_one · 09-04-2013, 04:03 PM

I know this is kinda randomish, but these rims are on my 1985 Maxima GXE, and I wanna put them on the 240 after I clean then and repaint them. the center caps say enkei.. I think they might be 92s or something.

anybody know for sure?

Yep. The last six digits.

I'm pretty sure those are 92s on the Maxima.

T_wo.and.T_one · 09-08-2013, 01:39 PM

ikr..that's the look i'm going for with those enkei 92s after I repaint/polish them.. she'll end up looking something like this, I gotta have some ground clearance where I live or else i'd be picking up pieces of bumper everyday.

I forget who's car that is tho..

206sx · 09-08-2013, 01:40 PM

wish they made 92's in a bigger size though
