Question

Anyone own or have owned a post 1994 Nissan 200sx. I know these cars can be tuned up to
output well over 300BHP. The only concern I have is that currently even with the standard 200BHP the rear wheel just do not have enough traction. The back often goes out if too much power is applied on a bend.
So my question is does anyone know a place where I can get bigger and wider tires for the car. Also any tips on how to best tune up the car.

Mmmmm

I have 97 200SX which the previous owner had upgraded the tyres on.

I have since taken themn back to the original 205/55's.

These cars are not about ultimate grip and pace down a tight road.

They are about great big, slip slidey oversteer fun.

Yehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Thumbs up

Raf,

I used to run one of these with 215/40/17. In the dry it was very sure footed and great fun - in the wet more fun. You just had to ensure that you were very smooth with everything to get the most from it.
