81 200sx(daily driver)

[Guest 510kamikazifreak]

Picked up this bomb for $267.00 taxes in..

The body is pretty decent for a Van Isle 200sx(they all seemed to rot away :blink: )

Seems to run decent,drives great,has a new starter,battery,tires :D

Is going to be my daily driver,the wife can drive the newer car :lol:

[Jason]

Sweet Lou! Z20e or Z22e? Should be pretty fun to boot around in and still reasonably easy to fix, same as my 'goon eh :cool: !

[Guest 510kamikazifreak]

Thanks Jason.

Its the z20e

 

It hit 148,000 K on the Hump on the way home,The tool bag is like new,Tire chocks are in the plastic wrappers still :blink:

Hey lou I may have passed you going the other way this evening! Was in the Port all day working. One thing that never stays on those cars is the tiny chrome trim on the top rear of the front fenders up by the windshield. If they are still on there, immediately take them off and either save them or glue them back on. :lol: Good score.

Shucks Mike,Shoulda pm'd me or something could of had a coffee.

I will have to look for the chrome on the top of the rear fenders :lol:

I thought it wasnt too bad the brakes in a 29 year old car that work like they did impress me ;)

Hah, should have better brakes than a stock 510 Lou! Z20e eh ... 5 speed too? Should move along pretty good, weighs about 400lbs more than a 510?

:lol:

Is true Jason.

Went from driving the olds(,4 wheel disc,abs yada yada)Into the 200 and is why I was impressed,Thought would be a fair bit softer and less responsive :P

Nah its a ghuttomatic :( ,Still enough power to take on the hump without slowing :thumbup:

 

Its even has cruise that works :rofl: :w00t:

[shancerlelby]

that thing is prettty cool, cant say i've ever seen one.

[ggzilla]

Congrats. Man i remember back in the mid-80s that car was the ultimate (affordable) japan techno gadget. Especially if it had the 120-button radio.

 

Now you is on a slippery slope. More luxury, bigger, newer styling. It never ends. When you hit rock bottom you will go back to your early simple Datsun.

No no no it's at the rear of the front fender up near the windshield. There's a 4" chrome strip, likely missing.

 

Lou, I might have a set of clutch pedals for that.Might have a Z bell for a 5 spd. too.

Yo Lou, that's me alright, the trash hauler :cool: ! Someone's gotta keep the bits to keep us going eh? With the 3 of us we'd be WAY over the century mark though, hey, we'd be older than the car's ages :lol: !

[datzenmike]

If you guys were both 21 we'd be over a century.

 

 

I called this picture "the load out". It's a Jackson Browne tune that describes the roadies loading up the bands equipment.

 

 

Somewhere in there is three blocks, L20B, Z24, Z22. A set of 6" rods, three sets of main bearing caps, an L20B timing cover and an R&P from a 200sx. I know there was more... Jason?

That was quite the load for the 'goon guys... I remember trying to muscle the stuff out at the other end :blink: , wow, why does the smallest and oldest guy have to move all the heavy stuff eh :P ! Funny thing is that the 'goon didn't even squat down more than another inch withe all that stuff, really stiff rear suspension :cool: !

 

I figure between the 3 of us we're closer to the second century mark than the first one guys :lol: !
