Coupe vs. Fastback

What are the main differences between S13 and S14 coupes and hatchbacks. Obviously, the fastback weighs a little more and probably has slightly better aerodynamics. Anybody got exact numbers? Anything else I should know?

s14 weighs couple hundred more poounds. They both have 155hp KA24de I believe(91+) I personally like the S13 hatchback compared to the coupe, and over the S14 too. They are all good cars though and in the same neighborhood s13 weighs 2600-2800lbs I believe and the S14 is like 3k lbs or so, Im not 100% certain, NssnSpdr would know.

Nissanspdr does know! HEHEHE

The S13 weighes 2600...coupe weighes a bit less than the hatchback due to all that weight of the window in the back...plus the coupe is more rigid which provides for a better autocross/road racing car.

The S14 weighes around 2750-2800 lbs.

For all out performance purposes...obviously the S13 Coupe would be great w/a SR or an RB or maybe even a KA-T.

For looks...it's up to a S14 or a S13 Hatch made into a 180SX. =D

actually it's what you plan to use the car for, for straight path racing, a s13 is recommend for lighter weight, and for drifting it would be a 180sx because it has a better weight balance ratio of 50/50.
