S14a road car project PIC HEAVY!!

[Shorley86]

Ok said i might as well start a thread on this cause its turning into a project.
Its gonna be done over a long time im in no rush with it so ill update as i go.

the car is a 97 200sx uk touring model.
spec when i got the car was as follows

Apex FMIC
Apex downpipe
Apex cat back
Apex coilovers
pipercross air filter
Apexi AVCR
Blitz boost gauge in door
H-DEV stage 1 ecu chip and mapped at 1.2 bar with 304.4 bhp
Nismo 2-way
brake stopper
18" RSS Kei racing alloys

the car came with a folder full of service history also and reciepts for all the parts and fitting from apex in england. it also had the dyno print outs from when it was mapped.

Since buying the car ive fitted Cusco subframe locking collers QSP steering wheel and boss and relocated the battery to the boot.

i changed the wheels to Azev type a's 17" cause i dont wanna be payin out for 18" tyres.

the wings on the car have paint blisters in the corners and the passenger side is all dented so bought 2 standard wings in perferct condition. gonna wait thill i have all the kit before i paint anythin and fitt them.

Ive also bought a turbo elbow/screamer pipe and a manifold off Bart and today i got HKS Kansai side skirts off nikikisix69.

heres a few pics off the car when i got it and how it stands now....
