joining nissan?
I think i wanna go RWD.....I'm getting sick of this FWD stuff....
What i want to know is, what are the main problems of a SR? Is it like a honda where you have to fix things constantly?
BTW: thinking 97-98 240 or older hatch...

not a single problem here replaced a tranny that cost $50 um oh yeah last night I was racing and my motor injested a throttle screw and the throttle wheel came off! The motor spit it out I still have perfect compression and I found a throttle body for free. You will be able to make 400hp easy with just bolt ons pm me if you have any questions or need any advice -Tim

I haven't had any problems with my car 92 coupe w/blacktop, and it's seen time at the drag strip, drift course and Sebring road course. The DET was designed to handle boost, so I don't know that many people have engine/turbo problems. You will probably have "other" issues... like window regulators that stop working.
Ohh, and any issues that I've had were man made.... ie 4th gear grind, dead clutch.... etc...

Well, i switched to nissan last month from honda. FWD to RWD. Please don't tell me that your are skipping the KA motor, are you?
Drifting isnt all about power you know. All you need is good suspension setup and LSD. Thoes 2 items is the essance (spelling) of a drift car. Every drifter enthusiast knows it. Having the power just makes things easier. I suspect you havent seen Drift Bible , if not, go get it.

Seeing drift bible doesnt automatically mean you know everything about drifting, it takes lots of practice and time, and money, not just watching some video.
