Default loss to 200 sx!

so im getting my girlfriends car from her work and my brother is driving my camaro z28.....were on the highway and i see a 240 sx pull past and rev it next to my brother! so i get closer to see the action and i see a pillar of gauges and one huge one on the front console! im like owwwww crap its turbo'd! my brother is 16 and has no clue about racing, he thinks if the exhaust sounds good its fast so anyway they are like about 45mph and i hear the sx honk 3 times and they go......the sx pulls about two cars from the bat and they are running stall the whole way!!!!! when they were neck to neck before the race i was screaming at my brother to slow down because from 35-40 autos have a dry spot with no pull at all, anyways he goes from about 38 and gets maulled! he gets out of the car when im home and says wow that was a fast car! im like dammit man you cant be loosing to 6 cyl engines......i told him once you see tonz of gauges you should be racing from 30 and below! hahahhaa dammit oh well it was fun for him

What? A 200SX is a 4cyc


They have non turbo SR20 motors, wich is pretty much the same as the turbo version. Its very comon to use all the turbo parts from the turbo spec cars. Its cheap and they are really fast.

T25s make over 250whp

T28s will get you over 300hp

Anything bigger is big power turbo cars, stock USDM block can take around high 300hp ish.

The Blue bird is the euro/JDM spec car it has better pistons etc, that motor can be swapped in and make over 400hp stock block.

And they make alot of TQ compared to hondas, dont feel bad there nice sleepers.

I saw a 200SX (or 240, not sure) at the strip running 13.3@113 all day and all he had was the SR20DET swap. Everything was stock, just a swap.

I built a motor for a customer a few months back for a 200sx. It was a 1.6lDET, lil motor but had factory 8.0:1 comp pistons. so there's no telling how much boost you can crack out of those small motors

There was a older 240sx at the track tonight. It would launch kinda slow, then the turbo kicked in after about 100 feet and OMFG!!!!!! I think it was trapping in the high 130's. I have no idea what was in it. I'm just glad they didn't line me up with him!

if the race weight was about 2000 pounds flat, i might believe you. otherwise they dont run 13s or trap near 110 in a stock 240sx with a stock sr20det - no matter what model or sr20det engine.
