S12 Body kit / Suspension Questions

Hey guys, Im in the middle of buying a PJS12, (1985 Datsun/ Nissan 200sx) I am having the hardest time finding ground effects/Aero Tunes/ Body Kits w/e you want to call them. I have seen some really bad A$$ ones on the web, but its only in pictures. I know that most of them are Jap-Domestic. But does anyone know where to find S12 Kits, It would be GREATLY appreciated, I checked at Club-S12 and they... dont really have much connection for kits. Alot of people are talking about making there own. I would go get some custom work done. But that is alot of green.

I would love this kit, Its square but I think it looks really nice.



On a brighter note, Does anyone know if the S12 / S13 Suspensions are interchangeable ? I really doubt they are but it would be a big saver and I wouldnt have to special order.... anything.

Thanks.

Yeah thats one of the bad things about the s12. The only company that really made a body kit was erubuni or something like that. A couple guys are tryin to get some kits made on club-s12.org. Alot of info is on that site so check it out. I swear s12's are going to be the new hachi....HAHAHA

Yes I owned a S12 Turbo (1986 turbo 200sx)
They are really hard to find body kits since there not as popular as the s13.
Unless you make your own or find someone who has it buying them from a distributor will be hard..

funny, i was doing a google image search for an s12 emblem i was reproducing and found this (the pic). the erebuni kit was one of the primary kits ever made for the s12. its not longer on teh market. they sold the last of them yrs ago and the moulds have since been destroyed. theyve actually been contacted several times by a few members on www.club-s12.org

you're only options now for a new kit is the impul kit. i actually invested a bit of money to get the moulds for this lol the guy that has them now is in australia (melbourne). his name is tony. pretty straight dude.

http://www.club-s12.org/forums/index...howtopic=13800

if you can find one (and they're rare) there's always teh SE kit. the turbo model also has some side skirts and what not, but the front lip leaves something to be desired. i just sold one of these not to long ago actually

and whats up eric? totally f-in random seeing you here!! ha ha how's the vert doing? slap that CA in it yet? man, i hit those corners the other day in teh jeep over by sea world and nearly cried cuzz i had to go slow. i want the vert back! LOL

oh, btw, the owner of that car is on c-s12. his nick is sr20det or something. yea, its got an SR lol


suspension wise, yes..they're interchangeable. you can swap out to s13 coils but have to swap your spindle too. there's a few write ups on it there too. search around
