Current build

Stylus with Nissan 200sx 2 litre turbo - Apexi ECU, Apexi boost controller, Apexi intake, cool plugs, SARD BOV, 3 inch exhaust, GTiR FMIC, should make around 280bhp and keep me warm and dry - unlike the last build... Rescued attachment DSCN1215.JPG

Jasper...

Have you had a ride in a 200SX powered kit car yet? They are absolutely ballistic...

A friend just bought the yellow Stylus that was featured in Kit Car mag awhile back. It's only the 1.8 200SX motor but has A LOT of extras. It is absolutely insane on the road and slightly unuseable for normal day to day driving.

Are you thinking of a lot of track work?

Chris.

Heres mine, its a GTS finished in Jan 2006, it took me about 18months to build (over uni holidays) and cost about £5-6k ish.
engine was sierra 1.8cvh which is now making way for a zetec.

That car - from what I read (and I might be wrong) - was fairly crudely set up. He just stuck a big turbo on it and whacked up the boost - and I believe it's had at least 3 engines....

With the Apexi AVCR boost controller I will not only be able to switch between 7psi and 15 at the touch of a button, but also turn down the boost for 1st and 2nd gear, making it a much more manageable car. With these engines it not about the total bhp, more about how they are set up and controlled. There are a couple of guys with the later engine in an MK with a similar set-up to what mine will be, and it's a very driveable car.

Mine will be for track, endurance rallies, and everyday driving. If I don't want it ballistic, I just hit the button for the low boost setting and pootle around

Hey chaps - learn how to post a picture
