Old Skool Update

[Scot]

Hi guys,

well ive been busy as a beaver, and completely stripped my 200sx for G-box and engine and just about everything i can nab off it!!! At the moment its tipped on its side.......

After some quick measurements, it looks like the swap will go fairly easily, putting the gear lever about 25cm's further back than the stock position, but everything looks cool. God though, do you realise how much wiring there is on modern cars!!! I think thats gonna be my biggest problem, but we will see....

Thats about it for now, im working my head around upgrading the front struts, to those from a MK2 supra's (Gus i might need some measurements from u ) The other thing i have to work out is the rear axle and driveshaft.....

SR20DET here we come!!!

Hi guys,

Just a quick update. Ive cut a pretty big hole in the transmission tunnel for the new lever, but im now waiting to have some new gearbox mounts welded up, so things are a little slow until ive done that. Ive started painting the engine a nice shade of red, which is really dating it and making it look far more period which is cool, but im afraid i cant get any pics up unless ryan fancies driving to oxfordshire and taking a couple of snaps lol. Its all still pretty exciting though for me, just cant wait to finish
