Hi,

Thought i'd join here, knowing i want to own a manual stagea in near future for tow purposes.

But needing to sell my 200SX s14a 1997 first or Swapping if i can find someone with manual stagea wanting to part. :laughing-smiley-014:

Been very interested in All import vehicles for over 10 years and originally nearly bought a R32 GTS4 way back in 1998.

Finally settled on S14 200SX back in 2000 then also purchased S13 silvia sr20de auto for missus in 2002, sold the auto because of rust in sunroof area and flew to sydney to get another nice S13 manual silvia SR20de.

Meanwhile slowly changing 200SX from stock to fairly heavy modified over the last 8 yrs, had a few run ins with the law and blew a few gearboxes, Finally decided to swap drivetrain to silvia for race and transform 200SX back to nice street/daily run around.

Fitted digital climate from jdm model, stock jdm 80k motor, std struts, suspension arms and now its great to drive again.

Got the silvia almost ready for track use(grip) and in need of tow/kid friendly vehicle as preparing soon! :D

      Engine sputter

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?

      That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
