They are lighter than a Supra, use the SR20DET engine thus quite reliable.

The SR20 engine will go FOREVER unless you upgrade the performance without the correct supporting mods, there are alot of people that cut corners.

 

If you were getting one I would get a *stock* S15 with a 6speed gearbox, and at standard boost it will last you a very long time.

My mate has a s14a 200sx (same body as this sylvia) which id say is exactly the same perfomance wise as my n/a, however mine has no rust at all, and his has had the sills welded.The supra has better build quality in my opinion.Im not so sure about the power of the sylvia, are they much more powerful than a 200sx? id be suprised if it had as much potential horsepower to be gained as a supra tt.

I agree with Brazil; Have you ever tried doing it with a ladyboy?

Its a perfect solution for a person like you who wants to be single, but still try abit of everything like yourself.

T28R at 0.6 Bar = 320 BHP? Not a chance.

 

S14's over here are worth buttons so don't see why you'd pay much more for one of these. Crap build quality IMO - the metal work on SX's in general just doesn't seem up to much, they all rust. Also, the SR20DET is known as the 'glass' engine for a reason.

 

Don't get me wrong, they're great fun when they're running right and because of the light weight a 320 BHP one will keep up with a BPU Supra 'til the silly high speeds. The S14's are also the most natural drift car I've driven - felt great to drift, was sideways round Crail's course up here the whole way round for as long as I wanted.

 

Mixed emotions about them for me. I modded an s13 to around 280 BHP and that was a hoot round Knockhill but I got tired of fixing it - more time spannering and constantly carrying tools around with me 'just in case' which in the end I said 'sod that' to.

 

Cheers,

 

Brian.
