AndySpak Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 When you first get in one and start driving it hard, you should definitely watch out for the body roll!!!! Oh, and if you get a later model (the saloon/coupe rather than the hatch/coupe) they can be a bit scary in the wet. Good car to own, I've had one of each and they certainly helped teach me how to handle a rear wheel drive car with turbo based wheelspin...

sinbad Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 Ive driven one and i got it sideways within 10 seconds i the wet. It was about 4 years before i got the Zed though when i was about 18. The bloke who had that one said he'd modded the boost upto 250bhp. Im more worried that its got rubbish handling as the Integra is great round the corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the honest answer. Ill pm you too if thats ok. Looking at one with coilovers, will that help at all? not sure a 200sx is the right car so your experiences will help.

captint Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 A mate of mine has one rotting on his drive, but before he left it to die it was a quality bit of drifting kit, he had Tein Superstreet and a EDFC, and it was running 280 hp, but still not my cup of tea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooh well if you are lucky enough to pick that beast up then I expect the ride I missed out on in the DC5 to be carried over to the SX lol I'm starting to try to budget for that DC2 off of ITR-DC2.com that's in Kent Although I'm also seriously considering that EK4 civic from Pistonheads thats SO nice Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be scared to take it out of the garage on anything less than perfect dry days See who can get the money together first then is it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docwra Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 They both had rubbish handling IMO. Nice to cruise on the motorway but not a hard driving car. Standard suspension is rubbish - first thing to do is to get shocks and springs on, or even better coilovers. Stick an exhaust, air filter, front mount intercooler on, wind the boost up a bit and you are looking at a car thats quicker than the Zed and nearly as good in the corners for not much more than £2K. The older S13's can be picked up for 1K now, and the S14s start from about 2K - theres loads of support for them and plenty of mods about to do what you want with it - as a second, fun car they are pretty much unbeatable for the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
