| Gene picked up a huge blown out snail powered 200sx that came from someone who had an issue with us and we decided that it was unsafe and we decommissioned it last night. Started as a running somewhat car with what was told to be a bad tranny. Clutch slipped as well and ran like poo. More we looked into it at my moms the more we found ALOT of saftey issues and completely rigged shit that should have never been done. We towed it to my moms last night looking like this..   Within in a few hours we had it stripped down..Few more things to pull and going to its place at KMR. Heres some of the ghetto shit... Homemade rearish sideish mount. Note the angle iron up and mounted to 1 12mm bolt and the broken weld..  Heres the drivers side mount...top and bottom view...   Front mountish  Ghetto ass mounted gauges..   Seat rails in car were cut all the way out and 2 aftermarket seats were in place with 2 bolts through floor with small small washer........and werent even tight. They were on the floor so barely see over dash.. Wiring was even worse. Fire hazard..Homemade conversion harness and alot of electrical tape and wires barely together..   More to come.

| The engine was sittin on rear subframe with stock rear mount just danlging. Side mount would have broke off with a few more hard launches...We broke it off with a heavy hammer.

| this thing looks like it was straight trailer park built. look at the baller custom booger weld mounts and custom wire twisty tape jobs.
looks like its got some decent parts, some one should snatch up another 200sx and swap everything over. | |

| Did that thing come from GR?
I few years back I saw something that looked like this blow its motor racing on 94....
After getting a push-start b/c the motor was seized, he proceeded to beat on the thing all the way back to his place..... | |

| Not gonna lie, I'm laughing my ass off over this. I know this car and the previous owner. He's a friend of mine but i knew there would end up being some sort of hate when it comes to that car.
