Hi all am not currently a 200sx owner but that may change as of next sunday.However I do have this & have cut the springs today & require the arches rolled at the rear.Is there a local member who could come to my house & do it or is there a group buy or is there a hire shop with 1.

Nice car:thumbs:
Not sure where the arch roller is. Hopefully Mattlake will reply I think he knows who has it. (I have a feeling it went back up north).
Alternatively try archenemy.co.uk, he's also on the bulliten board. All your arch rolling needs and advice.

Thanks mate,if someone could sort this prob that wud be great.
I read on a few searches that archenemy only do on site,unfortunately my car has no MOT yet so can't move.
umm dunno if madda minds me saying this but he had one last saturday but i think woody was borrowing it next

cr33ch,do you live in Emersons green opposite an RX7 in black,I spoke to you last year about looking round your car for buying advise.If I pm you my number could I still do that as I'm looking at 1 on sunday.
I f the arch roller is up for grabs I'd be very grateful as I don't want to hammer & dolly such crisp arches.

Ok so could you put me in contact with the person that owns it so i could rent/borrow it?
Chipping together for a local one may be popular idea?

manners will get you far dear boy. Were you not taught your Ps & Qs?:wack:
it wasn't from someone on the board:no:
Communial kit doesn't really work imho.
Who pays for it?
Who keeps hold of it?
When someone who didn't contribute towards it, but would like to use it what happens then?
can only end in tears:nod:

I think you have taken my reply the wrong way, sorry for that, I'm not trying to be rude.
I would like to roll my arches but do want to spend the earth. But don't mind paying a reasonable fee to rent one.
If it a local guy in the Bristol area, i could contact him to arrange something?
I have the same questions too, it may get complicated.

I borrowed it off a mate in worcester, quite a treck from bristol:(, how soon do you need one?
is that a datsun 120 something ???
Nice car there Ian :smitten: if the bodyworks as good as it looks in the pics,then i'd pay for Archenymy to do this!
On a side note,the Welsh all chipped in a tenner and got one of these rollers! I think they have come down a bit in price now aswell! :thumbs:

It's actually a 100A A10,there's only about 10 in the country & mine is believed to be the last one with white & brown interior.I'll sell it to get a decent 200sx s13 as that's been something of a long term dream!!!!
The bodywork is excellent as it was waxoyled from new,there is slight scabbing in places but really nothing to stress over

If you are going to sell it,then won't it be worth more money standard? Rather than slammed,arches rolled etc? would love it myself,but missus won't let me clutter the place,i have 2 cars now :wack:

I have the an original spare spring set in the garage aswell as the original wheels with the crossplys on so if the buyer doesn't like modded it would take no time to return to stock.

Can't you just stick an SR20 lump in it?
I've seen it on YouTube in a (B210) 120Y though.
Gw'ooon Would be some serious stealth fun!

With regards to an arch roller, it's on the shopping list along with a db meter.
And I agree with what's been said, pay to get a proper job done on your arches.:thumbs:
its a cool car .. leave it standard to sell it :)

No worries,
I'm ordering my spacers at the moment, but not a massive rush. Want to get my offset meaner :D
If we could arrange something that would be cool.
