How to ruin a 200sx

[dustyjake]

11 thousand pounds on the interior???
Look at the fucking state of it, even brand new it looked toss.

It costED 11000, mind you it does come with a ps2!! and pimpmyride screens in the headrests, now that's gangsta

 

[yogi bear]

Serious question though, how much is it worth in bits?

Actually very little when you think about it (talking about the S13).

The majority of the money is going to be in the motor (if it's any good)
You'll get abit from the engine upgrades (if they are there)

Wheels and suspension you're going to have to nearly give away to get rid of it as no-one is buying that sorta stuff.
Interior you might scavenge a few dials, the wheel and seats but none will go for big money

Second hand ICE is worth fuck-all, and no-one is buying it.

The bodyshell and rest of the interior is only good for scrap or skids.

The main problem is the car is absolutely covered in shit that is no longer 'in vogue' so there's not much money in it's parts because no-one is going to buy it.
You'd make twice as much money breaking a normal stage 1, stage 2 car because people are gunna want those bits.

Fuck all. Unless your desperate for dc5 rear lights or a hydraulic kit for an s13 (I reckon that's a slim market) anything worth pinching Nissan related is standard..

Wtf is wrong with people

eBay 'Lexus style' DC5 rear lights

Oh..I thought this was going to be a 'how to'

The irony. Driftworks complains about someone ruining a 200sx

I genuinely put consideration into buying it to smash up on video, and hope I'd get enough back from selling the leftover parts.

 

[r3k1355]

Maybe is the price was around a grand??

IIRC it started out at like 10K all those years ago

Haha that would be heroic

 

[PeterT]

and why would you put a td05 on a std engine??

i put a td05 on an rb20 standard engine with injectors and it made 389bhp at fly with a map...thats probably why!

 

[OBEE]

IMO the most valuable thing on that is the "redhead" SR

Do it please, just to stop it from cropping up here

Maybe we should start a forum 'kill the monstrosity' fund? people can donate random amounts and when we reach the target price driftworks can buy it and kill it in style. That's the kind of thing that could end up going viral in the drift world.

 

[chidley]

i like it

 

[slackyboi]

MAAAN! thats horrid!

 

[i11matic1795]

I don't think I could actually work out what car it was if I saw it on the street! Is it an MR2 rear end?

 

[r3k1355]

No I think it's a badly fucked about with BN sports inverted hatch, with a wank spoiler stuck on the back and some fake grill type things put in.
The rear lights are Lexus Style DC5

Just think if this had been up for sale at the same time as The fast and the furious was released, it would have sold instantly at the original asking price ! lol
