For your gearbox crossmember, Try using the original one first. I used the
bluebird one for my SR20 and just filed out the holes a bit where it bolts
to the car. I took the holes forward about 1/2" into an oval shape. I would
assume 200b would be similar. Also, get an intercooler and start figuring
out how to plumb it in. I sat the intercooler just in front of the radiator
and bolted it to the chassis member that is there. The place that did the
exhaust looked after hooking it all up for me for about $120. Perhaps for
the engine crossmember, go to the wreckers and see if you can measure up a
series 3 bluebird x-member coz the mounts are already there and if you can
get out of this. I paid $80 for mine and just bolted it up onto my s2
bluebird. You might have to swap the arms over or something, but worth
checking.
