don't misunderstand me... I'm not knocking any decisions that folks make. Yes, its all about what makes one happy, but remember, spending alot of money in no way gaurantee a faster or more reliable car. It is only an option, nothing more.
Choices will make or break a project, more than anything else.
Drop $1500 on a bb turbo and Ks on a motec/tuner and you can still be ripped to pieces by a used $300 turbo/$650 d.i.y. ecu job. Believe that
While aftermarket brake kit$$ are nice, 4pot fc or nissan used jobs may very well outperform them.

Sure, we'd all love to go brand new gear, to errrr.... bolt onto our 10-15yr old 4AGs.


>>"If you are about doing things the right way "
--------------------
thats another thing I don't believe in. There is no such thing as THE right way... only whats "right for you", eh.


>>"20k australian not us and i noticed that you said that it was a us spec s13 so you have to have done an sr20det engine swap which would have added 5k australian to the cost"
-------------------
I use the sr20 example as its something u guys can relate to. Its not a "5k swap" over there. The recipee I posted is quite basic. Add it up.

Again choice dictates. Lots of sr20 'bandwagoners' bash the 2.4L nissan "truck motor" that came stock in the u.s. 240sx. Dollar for dollar, the KA will blow away an SR20, hands down. Recently seen one dyno 600 ft-lbs tq to the threads! That is *not* 4 cylinder territory. Simply amazing for a cheap motor that can fit quite easily under the hood of an ae86, eh. Any little 'revver' can put up the "hp numbers", but tq is what distinguishes the zeroes from the heros. Smile

back on topic, a boosted 4ag in a 1100kg hull is quite a potent package



since when did this turn into a nissan thread?
