What did you do with the black wheels in the first pic??

The wheels were SSR mesh were pretty cool but the fronts had weak offset and they were only like 7J's or something

[AntB]

thats a really nice ps13 dude and will be really cool when its done

[matt]

nice work, got any more pics of your throttle body, looks like you chopped a bit off?

[xborninthefightx]

Nice one, I want a 1JZ in mine, its nice to see something different goin in a 200sx, most people would put a RB engine, (nothing wrong with them just nice to see something different)
How much does it cost to do the swap, with all the running gear.

[Ted]

Been covered many many times man, the weight up front makes the S13 feel more planted at the front and helps with the understeer on turn in like most S13s are prone to

The wieght difference between the 1JZ and SR20 at the front is less than the difference between a full and empty tank of fuel at the back of the car.
yeah it'l change the ballance a bit but like Doz said in a good way

[doz]

To be fair though, the back end will want to be trying to get past the front most of the time anyway

1J powaarzz man

[mr.worth]

Well I can honestly say I could never have taken things that far,cant belive my eyes tbh,fricking big welldones in order

Cossie is still in bits as normal just waiting on a proper diff and a few other bits n bobs,have a 33gtst to mess about in for a bit but thats at garage d being mapped,my life at the mo is a 1.6 sierra and its depressing(thank god for other methods of happiness)

What wheels will be filling those arches anyway?
