ok so i actually dont own a nissan but really love the s13-15s they are some of nissans best cars I.M.O. i actually own a 450awhp eagle talon but am curently looking for a 240sx to throw a 2JZ into. i am actually doing a ton of reseach for a friend who owns a 91 240sx with a soon to be KA24DET-T. so far i have found out that the SR20 is a motor to stay away from ( main bearings keep blowin )where i live because of the altitude. ---

Sr20 isn’t a bad engine, I’m not sure who’s telling you that… If your looking for another 400+hp build though, yea you might wanna go with something with more displacement. Might reach your goal a lot faster… ---

thats the biggest croc of shit i have ever heard… i’ve had my sr for 5 years or so running 14 psi snow,rain,blackholes no problems yet. maybe they forget to put oil in there cars, because of the altitude… ka is a throw away motor, blows or goes throw her away get another. to rebuild it, its a waste of ur time and money. if your gonna rebuild a ka build it. ---
