Yep straight swap and totally fine for everyday road use. Nice straight-forward job to change disks/pads on the 200.
Check out the Useful Threads, it's got how-to's with pics.

Exactly what I bought. They've been on a few months now and I wasn't expecting much tbh but the Mintex pads are not half bad for fast road use.
Not sure about drifting but if going anywhere near...
Sorry, another dislike here. The white makes it makes the car appear more monster truck than it already is.
You needed to do them in anthracite. :p
Love what you've done to the lights. (gonna...

I like that a lot ^. That colour suits the blue surprisingly well.
Do you know what the colour of the wheels are?
It is better to have it, but you shouldn't have a problem without it.
I've ran mine without with any temp issues at all for the past ten years. That is purely road use.
Doh, was in the 'useful threads' - http://www.sxoc.com/vbb/showthread.php?215288-Boost-leak-info

Ideally you need to pressure test it. I thought my pipes looked ok, wasn't until I put some pressure in them I found the leak.
It is a bit of a faff admittedly, but I'm sure there is a guide on...
As been said above you need to check for air leaks first. It sounds very much like an air leak to me. You won't necessarily be able to tell from looking at the pipe/joins.
I had same symptoms,...
That will make wheel choice a bit more tricky. :D
Definitley the dark wheels. They suit the the green motors real well.
Edit: Widened GTR33's to what width? How is that done? Did they come in 18's?
That is kin excellent! :nod:
I think you should be okay without a bov, I've been running without one for ten years and 60k miles. Not a problem, so far :D.
Definitely as above ^. Get both.
Plus if they haven't been touched for over ten years you may find that the eccentric bolt has rusted itself solid to the bush which means they won't be able to...
255/40/17's are spot on for the rear with the GTR33's.
These are Toyo Proxes T1R's on GTR33's.

[QUOTE=jk 200sx;6182325]I'm running 205/45 ATM and its much better
Apologies wardy for OT. JK some nice work on your motor there. Can I ask where you got those headlight covers from?
Sorry...
Cheers :thumbs: yeah exactly what I was thinking too.
'Ladyshave'!:D
Good work, must do my wiper arms too.
Actually what size is your front reg plate? That looks like the size I'm after, I have a full sized one stuck on the protruding bit of the...
Plusgas is the only thing I haven't got in the garage. Must get hold of some.
Actually what about the bushes though? In the hub side arms.
Cheers Nath. Yep, blowtorch on standby.
Actually hadn't even thought about unscrewing bolt from nut. Hopefully be tip like that that means I'm not pulling my hair out (if I had any :D)
Edit:...
Hi
Am going to replace all my rear arms soon.
Slight concern is how rusted the nuts/bolts are. On the camber arm (hub side) there is not enough room to get a 6 point socket in there. I don't...
I must admit shocks are not something I would buy second hand.
Do you actually know what sort of life/mileage the KYB's had before you got them? I would be going back to the person you got them...
