My K10 1.0 LS < Lightning Speed!

Hey guys just thought i'd put up a quick blog about my car and my plans for it.

How it was when I got it

I then got some BMW 15" BBS to try on which looked fairly decent, but sadly the Centre Bore was too small :(

I then invested in some Minilites 13x7 et-6(I think) which stick out from the car a bit far ;)

I couldnt find any cheap JDM arches - But these Mini arches came up at the right time for the right price, The fronts had to be stretched a tiny bit which has caused a crack but nothing major

I also tinted the front lights yellow to give it that extra JDM Look :cool:

I ordered a set of Polo Coilovers today so they should be fitted in the next few weeks hopefully and then im just on the lookout for some Super S Seats/Steering wheel and also a 5 speed gear box from the 1.2.

If you have any of the above parts feel free to let me know

Cheers for looking guys - Comments welcome :)

Put a 1.2 there and you get bit more poke easy :) .....E15/E16 mod would be fairly simple and cheap also,and you can tweak them with nice results.

Just testing the water....Would anybody be interested in buying this with the wheels/coilovers once they are fitted?

Ive just changed the oil & air filter and given it an oil change, Also it has Mini Arches and 11 months tax & test and the front lights have been tinted aswell as you can above, What would be a reasonable asking price?
 
Nice is it quick yeah and do you have any ideas where I can get a 200sx from in good condition with reasonable mileage because there's so many rough ones I don't no lol
 
That is pretty rapid. I see mate thanks anyway you got any plans over the weekend and are you doing anything else to your micra mate
