94 fwd svx vs. 93 nissan sentra ser
I must admit that having a lighter car with high horsepower is always a good setup.I raced this sentra this weekend headsup the first race he won by a car but I knew he was much faster,the next race he let me move first with my 100shot zex I took about three cars but he still bet me by a half a car,I shook his hand and gave up the cash,his car was leaking tranny fluid after the race found out he had cracked the case.He had his hood up wow he has a SR20 MOTOR WITH NOS A 75shot he said he had about340 whp.Well I don't feel too bad now,hey you can't win them all.

However, the SR20DET is a JDM turbo version of the same motor that puts out about 215hp stock and can easily be boosted to over 250hp. With a 75 shot, that'd put it up close to his claimed power. BTW, if the rust on my 92 SE-R is fixable, I plan on swapping in a SR20DET as well. Quote:

My transmission has been very reliable as well. Of course, it was replaced in 1999, 2 years before I bought the car. The only problem I have now is a broken rear transmission mount.
As for the SR20DE, over all it is fairly reliable, but they do a have problem with spun bearings, which is why mine is on its second engine (also replace by the previous owner).

hidden power
Well I will be racing the guy again, this was a street race,hey phil I posted a question about which plugs to run because I think with the hot plugs I run now the car may be pulling timing in third gear,which would you recommend 1or2 steps colder,all I need to win is a little more topend he can't leave with me period,but he did have the imported turbo motor.

hmm
The guy must have had a DET, since the sr20de is fairly pathetic stock , it has potential for sure, but my friend has a 200sx SE-R, with Ultra SS pulleys and a CAI, and my car *edited* lol. BTW, get longassname's stage 2 kit and show him who's boss
