Anyone Know This CAR
I had it posted elsewhere but apparently it was closed because it was in the wrong forum. So here is the car again.

Basically, the car was for sale on sr20forum here:


http://www.sr20forum.com/cars-sale/...ilt-turbod.html

Then showed up here:

IMPORTATLANTA.COM - Automotive, Lifestyle, Offtopic, Forum, Blog, & Online Community - 98 Nissan 200SX SE-R Fully built turboed 326 WHP Partial trades!!!!!!!!


This is where I became interested in the car, but if you follow the traffic you will realize that it looks like something is up. He won't give me a straight answer on the car, and he wont tell me who built it, doesn;t have any reciepts, really has no information on the car at all other than what is posted.

Some people know this guy from last year when he tried to sell a stroker motor b13 with no reciepts or anything. But i like this car and what to know more about it. So if you have any info on this lmk. I also don't want the car to be sold to some unsuspecting victim that just takes his word for it.


If you have any info or if you know anything about it just lmk. He said that he has owned the car for 4 years now but the other for sale post says otherwise(sr20forum link). Thanks ahead of time

I wouldn't bother with it if it's looking shady.

The car looks flashy more then anything...

Open BOV and running draw through
No Valve Cover Breather hoses, so oil will be dripping
A GT30 on a T2 manifold
MAP sensor is hooked up, thats not needed if your running an older then 98 ECU. Which you can't reprogram anyway so you have to run an older one.

But other then that pretty clean hehe

He says he has had the car for over 4 years! But it was for sale 3 wks ago? He actually defends himself, but doesn't make any sense

That dude is a dumbass. He hasn't owned the car for four years, he bought it from a guy named Mario for under $2800:

f/s 1998 200sx se-r fully built turbo'd - SR20 Forum

Mario's email is [email]turbomario98@comcast.net[/email], so you can probably find out more about the car from him. Here's some fun background info on the guy re-selling it:

Yeah I remember all the drama around that b13. He couldn't prove anything at all. He says that the 200sx is smoking now, but I think he is getting it mixed up with rich smoke. I will email mario......thanks a million

He's just a retard. He didn't touch that motor with his own two hands. JGY built that motor, which explains the smoking, likely from them installing the rings without checking ring gap.

Dont touch that car with a 100ft pole, if jgy built the motor I would run away and never look back.

Talked to the original owner Mario, and he said that the car did smoke from running really rich and not being tuned. But take a look at this vidfirst vid on the screen)
