Hey guys figured this would get your panties in a bunch.... I read this article in the Q&A section of Import tuner magazine earlier this year or sometime last year. I almost unsubscribed after this.


DISCUSS!

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

^^^Thats the angle my pal took saying that Eric was saying its not worth it to swap in a 240 when there are better options, but to me, he went WAY too far comparing the two. In all reality the SR20 is a piece of crap compared to the 3s. I see people having WAY more problems with the SR than a 3s. And as far as racing I so happned to race an sr20 swapped sentra that was slightly modded, and it ended VERY badly for him. they dont hold a candle to the 3s



So was this sentra a DET swapped SR or a n/a bolt on?

Being an owner of both 3SGTE and SR20DET/VE/VET, I wouldn't say one is more reliable that the other. Clearly this is a bias forum, but from my perspective Eric is correct.





It was a Sentra DET swapped with minor upgrades. so you think Eric is correct in general that the SR is a better motor? or his perspective on platform?

It's hard to compare, simply cause ALL of my SR20's from DE to VE have all been very reliable. Same with all of my 3S as well. Right now it's even harder to compare simply cause my car is a stock block SR20VE, which is a far more superior motor than a DET or a 3SGTE

Can you explain this one for me? Cause what information I look at online seems to be lacking numbers in comparison to the 3sgte, unless you are speaking of the VET version, which still appears to be short of the stock 3rd Gen 3sgte we all commonly love.
