Whoops, my bad. Funny how the 240sx came with a 2.4liter engine in the US. The 200sx in AU came with a 2.0L engine there. But the US version of the 200sx came with a 1.6 and 1.8 liter offering.

I guess I tend to forget about the underperfoming nissan lines. In any case I was picturing a sentra in my head when I wrote that.

edit- you wrote your post at the same time I was writing mine. You had me thinking for a while. I gues I'll have to look it up soon and refresh my memory. Glad I'm not crazy.

Don't forget the S12 200sx with the 3.0L v6

I dont really care im trying to figure out how to get traction in my 240 and run 11's with the sr, if its possible bye

here in ohio, you can get "collector's car" plates or "special vehicle" . I used to see these all the time on cars at the driving schools. They are exempt from emissions testing. There cost a bit more though.

Thanks!

yeah im from san diego too. ok if your in california they do engine inspections to pass emissions. so umm if you have a giant turbo under your hood, attached to your sr your screwd. i had a friend that turboed his ka just had a carb sticker made and thats all the looked for. so he was fine. but then again thats also "illegal". california just plain sucks for emissions.

it all depends on where you live. check your local laws. i live in colorado and my friend's SR passed with a better score than his KA. some places it's illegal to drop in an engine that wasn't originally available from the factory.
