ah ha. wondered if you were still doing this. don't think anyone's made a TS cup car over here though some have talked about it. would you keep it as a road car or build a track only machine? personally i'm not a fan of stripped out interiors for a road car as they just tend to be a chore to drive when they're all rattley and tinny. either way. glad to hear your still getting on with it.

yesss i still have it. iv been busy having sold my 106 gti track car and moved onto a bmw e36 track car thats been rushed as im heading over to germany with it to visit the nurburgring on the 4th of october. so to asnwer your question it will be moraless a track machine but shall be kept road legal for the summer playtime, or what summer we have anyway. engine wise its gotta be the 20det out of the 200sx i think ! managed to find some fiberglass replica arches on ebay from malaysia and the guy who iv ordered them from tells me he shal have the spoiler and chin spoiler to match fairly shortly !

cool. keep us updated.
Reece on here fitted a CA18DET into his B310 so might be able to help you a little, but depending on what you do with the front and rear suspension it might not be much use?
a stock H150 diff/axle will quickly grenade with more then stock torque.
Bozwell found the B210's handling OK as a track car thou that was not running the kind of power your talking about....

Suspension wise thinking of sending the struts to Gaz. They did a nice job of my friends mk2 polo ones which are a similar sort of idea to the datsun ones.... albeit not cheap haha

hmm. think you might need a brake upgrade to go with the planned engine thou!
i figured you might just fit the whole front suspension crossmember and legs from the 200sx as well as the engine. being as your fitting a wide arch kit, the extra width from the 200sx suspension would prob be of benifit as well.
then fit the rear suspension along with the diff and you've sorted out the weak axle as well.
be easier and cheaper to buy a bashed or rusty 200sx donor for all the bits, including the wiring and i'm sure plenty of other bits would be usefull as well.

Interesting, what rear axle are you thinking of running?
My B310 (pre facelift) is off to get its SR20DET fitted next month, still debating rear axles.
Mine is going low and flush at the moment,.. then probably be used for hillclimbing at a later point.
