you realize that this is mostly because the r31 wasnt offered as a gt-r dont you?

the top of the line r31 iirc is a 210hp rwd gts-r with hicas (not super hicas)

the r32 gts had (again iirc) 220hp rwd and super hicas so between the two equal models it wasnt that much of a change as you may think

the big accomplishment was for the gas crisis to end and the ability to make an all-out track car like the old gt-r cars back in the day.

i think a bigger change was between the fairlady z32 TT and the z31
ok ill stop being off topic but i love to hear myself talk

yeah money=power

but on sr20 stock internals i would stay around 300-350whp.

Do any of you guys know the primary difference between a 180sx and 240sx (apart from the fact that one is American and the other is for the Pacifics)? Is one more powerful or has more torque than the other or is it just the same with different names?

[AWDSR20]

dude! READ FAQS!
one had the ummm Sr 0r CA and the other...ummmm
KA?!


exept for the engine and seats and looks (typeX) its the same car....so yeah there the same from that point of view.

[NiSmO_zt]

wow, mad off topic rants... rofl copter. anyway, TRANCE101, we dont have 180sx's here in the states. we have 240s, which has the same chassis, and a similar body to the silvias and 180sx, but different motor. if you put an sr20det in or build and turbo the existing ka24d/e, it will cost about 7000 buks to get about 350 whp, give or take. youve got alot to learn about these cars, but its better than a civic and the other pos's out there, so stick around and read-up.
