Dont waste your time with a NA SOHC SR20 FWD.... Get a S14 (240sx) and swap in a JDM SR20 or if your nuts a RB26 hehe....... But the SR20 drops into a S13 or an S14 with ease and with an easy head lug upgrade and turbo upgrade you can boost to an insane 27Lbds and get some nice results... A NISMO cross member is a good addition too. You cant beat RWD

spec V's use the QR25DE and the base SE-R uses a QR20DE

and its funny how every supporter of nissan quality only mentions (except for the 350z) cars that are out of production or overseas. i'll say it again. nissan USED to make great cars. until that french guy started running things.

the QR20DE is from the limited edition 2.0's they release a year or so ago. Now they have the Limited Edition 2.5's which have the QR25DE but is basically a Se-R/Spec V but for a higher price. The Se-R and the Spec V both hvae the QR25DE.

For the price of a spec-v i'd go for a mazdaspeed. Similar power, better build quality/fit and finish and stock handling which the spec-v would not even come close to.

Btw, the mazdaspeeds now come in mid-year refresh colors (ie: gunmetal silver)
definately go take a look.
