Are 200SXs welcome here?

I sold my 91 240sx a while back, but I did so realizing it wouldn't be the last one I own. So I come back now and I am curious if S-12 owners are welcome. I am trying to mod a 1986 200sx. I am currently in search of a donor car for the project. I plan on dropping a VG30de from a Maxima SE if possible, and I might even settle with a VG33ET from a local engine importer.. I want to put in the t-5 from the Z31 turbo. And then pull the R-180 and replace it with the unit from either a q45 or j30. I'm not sure if the diffy will be possible yet I need to do a little checking. Anyway I realize that none of these components are really SX realated... they are closer to a Z31.

I wish I could get my hands on a CA18DET. That would be awsome .

So I really would like to get some thoughts on what I should do. I'm stuck with a low budget as I am pouring most of my cash into my 1971 240z. Are there any other s-12 owners around here that know of good forums? I've found a few, I just didn't like the ones I found.

thanxs

basically

that is how I picked the car up from Union city. It's a lot better now that I've gotten it cleaned up.

Beleive it or not the interior was full of platic bags full of clothes. So the car sat for 5 years there were I found it and the interior was protected from UV. So after I cleaned out the interior I found that only one spot was truely damaged inside. The driver side window sile. So I really don't have to deal with any interior stuff.

The car had the base model engine, but it has all the other upgades minus a moon roof. Includes cruise, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, AC, overdrive, talking lady...oh yeah! Sexy lady is telling me I left the lights on... Sexy lady telling me my fuel is low... lol

Clean ride dude. I saw a white one the other day. I was tempted to ask him if he would sell it.

My server sucks... Sometimes if I open them in another window then right click it and hit "show picture it works.
I know it's a pain and I am seriously thinking of building myself a server...
