who would win?

Around my neighborhood theres a racing crew, and they got three 200sx SE-R's. But they are all stock. My m/t civic ex has aem cold air intake, dc headers, and greddy evo exhaust. Who would win in a race between a stock 200sx se-r and my car?

i would in my opinion have to say the SE-R since they come stock with 160hp. its not really the car thet decides the winner, its mostly the driver. so look at it this way, u CAN beat them, just do a really good job shifting.

How are they a racing crew and all cars are stock? Try and race one. If you win, your faster. If not, save some money, buy something proformance, and race again.

Sorry SER will win, even with your mods you'll have a hard time keepin up but give it a shot neways u have nothing to be ashamed of b.c. if u win ull be happy if u lose u wouldnt have expected to beat him in first place but...if they are a racing crew, Im sure their SER'z arent stock...Ive seen some of those older model SER's pull on SI'S also, but good thing its not a SENTRA SER b.c thatd spank you...Good Luck

I think the SR20DET is 140 stock, but not exactly sure. Like they said before it all depends on the driver. You have a higher redline = less shifts. Us Nissans have lots of low end torque but not a high redline (one thing I can't stand!). Give it a shot if they say they are stock. I would want to see under the hood first though.

The SR20DET is 210 stock, and was never sold in the U.S.

I raced a Sentra SE-R automatic with an axle back exhaust. We raced from a roll of like 15-20mph. The race was pretty much even. I had a friend in my car and the Sentra guy was by himself. If i dropped it to second faster I would've had him. I think you should win, but then a sentra is not a 200sx.

I think it's going to be close being both drivers dont mis-shift. However, beating an SR engine isnt always easy.

Its gonna be damn close. Just tell them you will race, look under their hood to make sure it is stock...then line up and don't miss a shift. You do that u should be fine...after that let us know how it turns out.
