Advantages: Power, room in the cabin and boot
Disadvantages: fuel hungry, high insurance
I had a 1991 Nissan 200sx 1.8 turbo.
It was visually standard on the standard tear drop alloy wheels.
The arch ways on these cars are huge, so for looks, the cars do benefit from aftermarket alloys of either 18 or 19 inch.
Standard 170 BHP, 0-60 in 6.9 seconds.
Power figures of 250 BHP can be achieved with a few minor modifications. More is attainable depending on how deep yur pockets are!
There is plenty of info on the internet, but check the SXOC, 200sx owners forum for owners and advice.
The 200sx is probably most famour on the drift circuits. Due to its limited slip differential you can drift this car easily.
In my opinion its probably the 2nd best drift car, behind the Toyota Corolla AE86.
My car had Mongoose exhaust, air filter, and modified ECU.
Make sure you have a boost gauge to check the boost you are running. If to much you will blow your engine!
Try to buy from an enthusiast as it tend to have been well looked after. Check insurance before purchase also as this could be expensive.
Summary: Turbo punch for pennies
