New S12-owner from Belgium

Post by The_Collector »

Hello,

I have just become the proud owner of a '85 S12 mkI with the fj20e engine. I have previously owned a few S13's and currently also own a S14 kouki with SR20DET.


I always liked the S12, ever since I got into JDM cars, so I figured it was about time to get me one.


 


The S12 needs to be built, it's a very good base to start from but is missing some parts. Some small interior and exterior parts, but most importantly are the engine parts, I'm looking for an oem throttle body with tps and airflow meter. And as the S12 is very rare where I'm from, this engine is even more rare...


 


Which is why I'm subscribing to any s12-forum and facebook group I can find. Hope to get help from fellow enthusiasts!

It will mostly be a restoration project, but main priority is to complete the engine first and get it running.


 


So if anyone has any of these parts lying around and willing to sell and ship them, let me know :-)

For now, some pics from when the car was delivered:


 





 





Yes, MKII taillights... The MKI's were cracked, so got these as a replacement for now

Hi. Well done finding one- have looked for years. Used to have an 85 2.0 back in the day. Now found a white 1.8 Manual in UK all original & just working on suspension, other than that drives great. I believe there are only 6 or so left in the uk, definitely a rare classic now. Good luck with restoration. Many parts are only available from USA. Just found the rear shocks at Rockauto.com
