vs. SR20 240sx

I-JTEC88 · 10-08-2007, 05:17 PM

how close would a race be against at SR20 240 and a 06 si....what would be needed to beat him...or wax him even

Tiznonay · 10-08-2007, 05:20 PM

oh man, here we go again!

06-07 SI vs. 91-94 sentra SE-R

'nother 20 pages or so of K20 vs SR20. Same outcome though, non-turbo SR20 240's arent any faster than non-turbo SR20 sentras. Civic should take em unless you suck at driving. Now if youre talking about the SR20DET, whole 'nother story

I Vtec, do you? · 10-08-2007, 05:26 PM

Well if you wanna wax him, I'd suggest that Turtle wax paste. It looks like shit, so you'll win that one.

Um, 240's have the KA24DE stock, not an SR20. Unmodded SR20DET in a 240 should be a good race. Anything above stock will probably goto the 240.

I thinks that why he mentioned it was an SR20 240

si-lenced4door · 10-11-2007, 12:47 AM

actually have a sr20ed 240. have clutch, ic, open dp, and diff and ran a 13.2.

Jardiniboy · 10-11-2007, 03:52 AM

What kind of sr20 is it? (Redtop or Blacktop). What turbo is he running? How much boost? There's a lot of factors from a turboed car.

Sorry, should've quoted. I was responding to this guy's post

I doubt anyone is putting non-turbo SR20's in their 240's.. which lead me to assume he thought the USDM had a non-turbo SR20 stock.

Actually some people actually do swap SR20DE's into 240's. They make more parts for SR20's than KA24's, plus SR20's have proven to be far more reliable over time. I just figured he was talking about a non-turbo, cuz if we're talking about a SR20DET you're gonna need a heavily modded SI to keep up with it. Even a totally stock DET is gonna be running at least low 14's. A good exhaust, and decent tires and it'll be in the 13's no problem.

I-JTEC88 · 10-11-2007, 06:03 PM

the 240 is running redtop with a stock turbo Greddy IC and piping, HKS SQV Blowoff, meagan downpipe, 3in custom exhaust, koyorad radiator with flexlite fans, stock injectors and fuel pump, he is running 7psi what do you think...what do i need besides a turbo to beat him?

Didn't know this. My friend had an S13 coupe a few years back and was debating the red top swap or turboing his KA. Seems kind of backwards to goto an SR20DE. Might as well get the turbo motor unless there is a considerable price difference.

EDIT: Good luck with that race.. Get the Greddy bolt on kit and hope for the best.

Yeah, even with the Greddy turbo kit it might be a stretch. Stock turboed SR's that up the boost to 14 psi routinely put down between 220-240 whp. The S13 is also significantly lighter than an Si.

At 7 psi it could potentially be a driver's race but the Si would need i/h/e at least.

Dont even waste your gas. You will get SMOKED. The black top is rated at 205 stock. That would be close, but the red top no!

PR_S14 · 10-11-2007, 08:56 PM

Both the red and blacktops are rated the same. 205 hp.

I agree that he will get smoked though.

leonphelpss11 · 10-11-2007, 10:40 PM

The difference between a blacktop and a redtop is how new they are.

Have you ever owned a 240 before? I don't think so b/c what you are saying makes no sense. I have owned a 240 before with both a sr20det and a ka-t swap. I was into the whole JDM fanboy shit and didn't care which was more expensive as long as I could say I had a Japanese turbo'd engine just like F & F. They have just as much aftermarket n/a and FI parts for ka just as much as sr. It was also cheaper turboing a ka then buying a sr redtop/black for 1800-2500+shipping. I basically bought the same exact parts for my ka as was in a stock SR and trust me, a used ka engine with 170 compression across the board was 150 bucks. Then I bought a t25, sr 370cc injectors, etc etc etc and all, it cost me around 1000 bucks for a ka-t that put just as much hp as a sr. A used ka is actually more reliable b/c it didn't start off being FI, it was NA, so it didn't have the stress like the sr did. I actually ran 13's in my ka-t at I BELIEVE 12 psi.. I was pushing it that day..

Oh, and you will get smoked though.. 2600lbs car (not stripped) vs a 3300 lbs (I believe) car
