i vote 240...more power..RWD=more fun..you'll get more respect..you can run A LOT higher boost....if you turbo your GSR your running shit boost and its not ment to be turbo'd and shit is going to start to break no matter how much prep you have or going to have done to it....the SR can take more of a beating..if you run a turbo GSR hard its going to die...and you'd have the change all your piping in your GSR..change to a 3''(or more)...overall id easily go w\ the SR20 swap..if you can do it cleanly...like a 95 body that is in very nice condition...blah blah..etc etc...just get the 240..but a turbo GSR wouldnt be bad...just not outta control like a 240..that FWD is going to hurt you..and all that excessive power on a FWD layout is going to hurt your launches..mad WHEELSPIN!...just like asswoods car...i dunno what im talking about bro..im really sick right now..so try to piece my rant together...

hp is just another way to measure torque, you know like centimeters and inches. Dolt. Not that hard to get 300whp out of either of those engines. so shut your shithole, and think before hitting the reply button. do TR a favor and end yourself!!!! you'd get more accomplished, than you would sitting here being a keyboard hardass, hijacking everyone's threads. cockmaster!

the 240 is more fun, but the gsr has 10x as much performance parts. thats my pro and con.
i had a frontier w/ a 240sx engine and that thing kicked ass if you swap a silvia engine in the 240 can i ride in it? you know just to bring back old memories
hey assfucker 5.0 thats weird that you say you've run several silvias, i hope you know that the silvia has a diff. engine than the 240. i hope your not braggin about beating a reg 240 and think its a silvia, that just shows yout inexpierence and stupidity.

I can see by your little description thing that you're into drifting...in that case, definitely go with the GSR, it is front wheel drive. That way you can keep laying down power while you have the rear wheels locked up with the handbrake, a rwd car will not do that so well.

I'm not trying to be Drifter X.....just break it loose on occasion when I'm alone....also i think when it gets done it'll be auto-x, strip, stoplight warrior....so I'd like to have RWD
