lol, EVERY sr20 engine shipped to the USA since 1997 has "around" 40,000 kilometers on it (or like 30,000 miles)......riiiiiiiiiight.
What I meant was that at least the SR has all factory stuff in it and that's a known entity. I've torn apart my fair share of allegedly "built" motors that the owners have sworn up and down contained certain parts that actually did not. The worst was a single cam Honda engine that someone Dremeled "JE" on to stock pistons.

No idea why that one blew up...none whatsoever...riiiight.
