I actually raced one the other night...That guy was freakin' FAST. Both our cars had all the bolt ons with stock turbo's. He beat me off the launch, and at 4th gear, he started to walk away good....
...doesn't help that my clutch is slipping and I may have a blown engine

a friend of mine has a silvia modded 240. he also upped it with 18 PSI a garrett t3/t4 turbo and a good size FMIC. at the drag strip with his DP removed his best is a 9.2xx ..... then he threw a rod. said he had traction issues (one tire fire)
long story short my best that same day at 8# boost easy driving, first time to the track, was a 8.7 83MPh in teh 1/8

You said SR20DETT in your original post not SR20DET what people are trying to correct is that there is no TT Twin Turbo version of the SR. This is the Rotary Forum most people here know what the T at the end of an engine code means.
Also you said your friend was going to turbocharge his SR20DETT which wouldn't make sence since the motor is already turbo. In the US we have the KA....it is the KA24DE or KA24D depending which year 240sx it is.

Yea don't forget the CA. Though it's the little brother to the SR some people really like that motor. From what I hear it is a really high rever...but it is easier to find SR parts.
But remember what the thread is about it is the comparison of the two cars.
No matter what you do to a 240sx....it will always be a 240sx. So what would you rather pull up in when you go to a nice restraunt? FD or 240sx?

Ok .... after all these freaks yakking about nissans and friggin engine codes ... lets answer your question.
You should be able to take your friend still ... He won't be able to get 400 rwhp without some major mods ... not to mention cash. So i wouldn't worry about it.
You have a pretty good setup to begin with anyways. Get some 1300cc secondary injectors, a fuel pump, and get some dyno tuning. Up the boost and you shouldn't have to worry about him for quite a while.

I have smoked quite a few S14's and S15's without any problems. But then again with my setup, if I got beat I'd be ashamed to ever tell anyone. As soon as I get my fuel injection problem figured out I wanna try and find a Skyline to play with. Best of luck with the race bro. You should smoke him very easily!
