Re: Western Off Topic
of course you do heenky. as much as i love boost, my buddy ryan has a 350whp NX2000 that just doesnt cut it for me as a DD. its fast, and its hella fun...but it is a very persnickety car...if you dont do what IT wants you to do, it wont do anything at all.
ill save boost for when i own a GTi-R...they come stock boosted + ITB's
the only problem with that is one or 2 of the rims have oxidized on the lips. so he wants to paint the lips and leave the center pieces...i told him to re-polish the lips and paint the center piece...we'll see what happens

this summer im completely revamping the 200sx. New OEM Vivid Teal paint, JDM one piece exalta headlights, the slips are getting powder coated black or white, going to replace timing chain/water pump/etc.., and may even do an OEM rebuild on the bottom end.

Re: Western Off Topic
for all that, why not just boost my DE? i mean im pretty sure my friend ryan has about 50% of the parts i need. t3/t4 on 7psi would be tons of fun....but my motor is 10.5:1comp and i dont want to shorten its life anymore than i already have.

i just still firmly believe that you should boost your dd. i have no problems with it and i have 350hp
if you dont beat on it you really dont have anything to worry about

Re: Western Off Topic
i could safely run 7-10psi all day long on my motor..and i would be alright with that. i just dont want to deal with the shit that ryan has had to put up with from his OEM turbo motor...
ive always wanted boost...and i figured i'd just wait till i could afford a GTiR. i'd love to have just the motor...but come on, its a RHD AWD turbo hatch...
i have plenty of swap options...i just cant make up my mind. im fine w/o boost, because i can drive a boosted version of my car almost whenver i want. the reason i want to go VE is because ive never seen one in person, never ridden in a car with one, and i just want to build a hella quick n/a track car.

theres where our cars differ broseph. your SR was boosted from the factory, mine wasnt. my motor wasnt built to be boosted, but nissan made FWD Sr's that were built for boost OEM. If i had an Avenir/Bluebird/GTiR motor, i would be running 25psi all day long.
i could safely run 7-10psi all day long on my motor..and i would be alright with that. i just dont want to deal with the shit that ryan has had to put up with from his OEM turbo motor...

lol and if you find a tuner that knows what he is doing than I don't see why it wouldn't be reliable???? but what do I know, I'm a honda guy...lol

Re: Western Off Topic
i could run 7-10psi all day on my motor and it would be fine. i'd just rather have a motor that was built for boost, than boosting my n/a one. i'd rather be able to run 25psi than 7psi, ya know?
ill own you out of the hole as is right now, own you to the 60ft with nitrous, and own you to the finish line with 5psi of boost <3
