    I found out about the SXOC over a year after i got my 1st s14a. Every where i went with it and every one i see with one kept banging on about the "SXOC" so i thoght id have a look! Got hooked, got bored, relised i was sad for spending most my free time on here! Started a business off the back of it! And iv not even owned a road going S-Body since 2008 lol.
    Met some great friends and some fcuking muppets along the way too :P (mostly the later)

    I did a quick search for '200sx owners club' when I was first looking to buy and I found this site. A year later I bought my first s-body from a member of the club.

    I found the SXOC about 2 months after buying mine.

    Wish I had found it before, I'd have realised how much the guy I bought it off bullsh*tted me and saved me alot of money

    Ah well at least I know everything done now has been done properly

    the SXOC didnt exist when I bought my car ..... so I joined the austrailian site .... then after a few months someone posted a link to here.

    they were the good old days of Bodykit and sticker hating pureists and an intercooler cost £1000 and 240bhp was a lot

    In december that yr i got my 14a

    Didn't even know what a 200 was when i was looking for a replacement for my old civic, saw one on autotrader and thought it looked good. Did some googling and this place cropped up.

    A mate told me about it as he was on a Subaru forum at the time and knew this place would be right up my street.

    I've realised I picked the wrong time though - I think it was actually 18 months after I bought my car that I signed up on here .

    Was about a month or so before buying my first one, didn't register at that point but was looking for a buyers guide and found this place.

    Was the old site then! Long time ago!!

    I remember walking around JAE, the "tornado" one (when I had a civic coupe) and taking loads of photos of various club stands. It wasn't until nearly a year later, while looking into the S14's that I noticed I had loads of SXOC photo's. I did think you were a bunch of nutters, so I should fit in. lol
