As you can see i removed the spoiler from the car that left 16 holes that were starting to rust. Might as well fix it seeing as i dont want my car to leak heh

The wing was so much of a pain to do. The rot was where the red lines are. As you can see the top of the arch has been made up but still needs a bit more work and has been sprayed with paint to find the bumpy bits.
Also you can see the bottom needs alot of work. would probably be alot easyer to get a new wing but im finding them very hard to get where i live (bournemouth). If anyone has one msg me! :D

Just finished the top of the boot and gave it a quick spray to find lumpy bits. bottom still needs sanding a bit but its now water tight :)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next to come finish boot and wing, get small holes in the sills welded. LOWERING!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also are the AVO springs the only lowering springs around? £94 ish from www.avouk.com anyone know roughly how much they charge postage?

Also is there anyone local to bournemouth/dorset that could do a spot of welding for my sills and how much would it cost. Would perfer a s12 guy to do it heh.

:D

Wheels look very nice actually :cool: .
Should look good.

chassis dynamics/Avo springs or custom wound springs made to order by companies like recoil are another good option. I dont have any contacts for this though at the moment. Try google custom wound springs etc

im quite positive (in fact im sure) they are rimstock "rimstar 100+" wheels, i had a set on my old mk2 escort. i got a set of the center caps from them too, but that was near 10 year ago, maybe give them a bell, you never know.

geez very old school then :D unfortunatly they are not made anymore. =(
They also look pretty rare cant find any sites apart from 1 mini site with a set of 13's on show these are the same size as standard rims and take the same tires.

http://pages.zoom.co.uk/vivaoutlaws/...her/oth12.html those are the same i belive nice one! for knowing what type they were!

Also still having headlight problems... tryed allmost everything apart from redoing all the wires. getting to be a real pain in the ass now. If anyone has anymore idea please let me know! :)

Been looking at getting some shocks as well.

(From american site. but pretty sure they are the right ones)
Front 1985 - 1988 KYB GR-2 Gas Shocks & Struts, Nissan 200SX (US) Part #365013 (GR-2 Rear #343210)
Rear 1985 - 1988 KYB Gas-A-Just shocks, Nissan 200SX (US) Part #KG4754A
KYB Strut Mount Part #SM5064 (anyone know if there are any adjustable mounts to fit this?)

With Avo springs 35mm drop.
With 5mm spacers all around.

Any advice?

Also put spacers on the rear wheels to bring the rims out a bit. but i noticed that the studs are quite short anyone know where i can get some longer studs as i would like to put 1cm spacers on rear as 5mm really does not show that much. Thanks

they look a bit like revolutions to me
