cool build thread man. keep hose links coming i love bargins
liking this alot, can't resist going for ebay cheaper stuff too. mind you alot of it isn't that bad quality some stuff is. those links are fair handy,
Ha I'm just trying to help out! :wink:
Is that your car? If I knew that I'd be stripping it! Not a bad looking motor!
Thanks for the good replies lads, I'll just give my opinion on everything I buy online and it might help someone who is on the fence about some stuff make up their minds! I've bought second hand branded stuff and was stung before so I'd rather buy new and take the chance!
Have braided turbo lines and turbo elbow back exhaust on the way so will update with them! :cool:
More packages arived today, seems like every day now!

Got these from the same place as the intercooler http://myworld.ebay.ie/tuningpartsbay Look like they'll fit perfect, will know more when I get at it this weekend.
And braided lines and full set of turbo gaskets from myworld.ebay.ie/kinugawa_turbo seem to be good quality and have good feedback on the net so will try them out when fitting the t28 I got :cool:

Fitted the exhaust last night and headed to Mondello today. Exhaust is a good fit the whole way back apart fom the mounting point on the gearbox is a bit off. All other mounting points line up.
Car went well today, no problems apart from red flags every 3 minutes fo the first hour with people going off the track! How it looked today, bit rough around the edges

Few bits planned for over Christmas, hopefully get a chance
T28 turbo
550 injectors
Z32 AFM
Remap
Extra lock
Underseal the body
Jesus it looks dead over there today, fucking slept it out was planning on going at 12 but she said it was still €100 till 3pm FT!
Are they 17's :?
seen dis today shes a lil flyer!!! i used a toyosport dwn pipe b4 and ended up haven to cut the fuker up to make it fit!! but i built the barney ps13 off ebay!! to be fair 99% of stuff is spot on!!
Thanks Dan, didn't see you over there. Seems to be going alright anyway so happy enough with it! Everything I've bought so far seems to be decent enough, used all proper bits on the fuel and cooling but after that not much harm a cheaper part can do!
Have a few vids but shit bog internet won't let me upload :(
Long time since I updated this!
Decided that standard power or lock wasn't enough so sorted those out.
Lock wise I got modded hubs off Stevo and Tein extra lock steering arms from driftworks. Nice difference to be had on a budget.
Power wise I got a T28 turbo,
550 injectors (http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Nissan-200SX-...item232c480eef)
and z32 AFM.
Replaced any boost hoses that were left to be replaced with Autosiliconehoses hoses and brought the car to TDP for mapping.
Got the car back a couple of days later, with no drama, mapped on nistune to just over 300hp. Very happy with the way the car drives and had in in Mondello for a track day and Tynagh for a drift day since and it went really well.

So I was all set for driftfest masters and then the shit hit the fan, 80euro down and no competitions to do. Went to IDC Punchestown and decided that IDC was the way to go so rang ROCO the following week and got the car in for a cage, very nice job. I never thought of photos before I put it back together but cannot recommend the man enough!

When in Tynagh I decided that the 16s were a bit small now that I had a bit more power so I ordered up some rims :)

Problem with these is they were a bit much for standard arches with no spacer!

So I got onto Bart and he sorted arches and a front bumper for me, havn't got the bumper fitted yet but the car looks alot better with the 50mm arches fitted
