Hi, anyone know of anyone wanting to sell their 200sx?

Prefer the following.

Early S15 (Nov 2000 onwards to Mid 2001).

Already done 30-60k.

Spec-S, perhaps even Spec-R if the price is ok.

Black, Silver or Red.

Seller within 300km of Sydney.

No mods.

Please mail me if you have something. I'm in no rush for one at the moment as I'm actually enjoying going back to catching the train to work after my GTS-T was totalled :( .

Thanks! :)

The later 2002 models with only 15,000km are going for around $32k to $38k at dealers. I haven't seen any early S15's from Nov 2000 to 2001 floating around in all the online ad's so no idea what they might go for. I suspect perhaps $26k to $32k.

I'd be stoked if I could find a private sale for a Nov 2000 S15 in Black going for $26-28k. Perhaps something that had done higher kms.

I'm probably going to leave it for later as well. Perhaps even wait till the end of the year when prices will be more reasonable for the S15's.

The prices are a little differant here in QLD, but the 01/02 go for around $32k - $40k and anything before around $30k.

I have only seen 1 or 2 below $30,000...

I am going to get a modified one to try and save some money..

I'll let you know if i find anything..

I purchase the series 2 GTS-T fully modified for $36k which was actually a good deal considering the mods cost the guy about $20k on top of the standard series 2 price of about $28k+

Insurance gets a little nasty at your age.

Personally I don't want to ever modify my next car. Could just be that fact that I'm still feeling a little rattled by my accident and would rather be driving a little Mini Cooper right now.

It will pass...

Was it a modified one?

I looked into this and their isnt a great advantage, first of all you have to get an earlier model car then whats available here, and you end paying almost the same price anyway..

I couldnt justify myself buying a 1992/1993 model car for $30 - $30k when you can pick up a S15 01 with 15,000km's for the same price..

just_grouse i had a look on another forum and saw a couple of black S15's 2 mildly modified sold for $35k and standard one for around $32...

It's the $$$ commitment that's the big issue. The $36k lease I had was draining the income faster than I would have liked (didn't help when the R33 needed it's engine replaced...damn mods!).

$26k seems to be the sweet spot so I guess I'll just have to wait for the right car. The S15 is the only 200sx I like the look of, inside and out.

Silver-Arrowz - I'd be just has happy to drive an R32 GTR or RX7 even but that also doesn't fit the budget right now.

Time for a little begging to the boss for more wonga?

Bloody mortgage!

      Rusty roof repair

      By Duncan · Posted

      Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement

      first time swapping rb25det into r34

      By Duncan · Posted

      This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too

      first time swapping rb25det into r34

      By dingleberry · Posted

      hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy

      SAUNSW - World Time Attack Challenge - 5 & 6 September

      By Keeper · Posted

      Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
