Is it worth getting a s14 sr20 or the s13 is fine? I hear its not worth it since the variable valve timeing on the s14 sr sucks

Does it really? How so?

s14 sr has a better turbo. newer, probably alot easier to install into an s14 since its made for it. Valve timing im sure does well.

S14 sr do suck.. vvt Does not work so well on s14 Sr.. They Improved much on the s15 Sr.. So yea S13 Sr Is better and a good choice.. just has a t25 turbo and s14-s15 sr has t28 turbos. S15 being dual Ball bearing.. So s13 Sr Is what you want! There Thread closed!! No more wasted bandwidth!

if u put oil in teds mouth he'll even give u them for free.

even if the vtc isnt great - teh engines are newer and have nicer turbos.

s14 turbos are ballbearing... the s15 has a better material turbine.

get the cheapest fuckin thing you can find, disassemble the engine, replace everything that's rubber.

deukalionS14 · 06-12-2009, 10:56 PM

I think that everyone is just as tired as I am of ignorant people asking bullshit questions and expecting others to spoon feed them answers when all that is required is a couple of finger taps for a google search and and some reading time.
