So I am thinking about buying this 1996 Nissan 200SX SE-R, but I am a little confused about what this guy is saying about it. I have looked up the Nissan specs and with the stock motor its supposed to get around 31-33 mpg. This guy is saying "The motor he replaced it with is a newer generation SR20DE which is more efficient then the stock engine which means better mpg and more performance" I expect the better performance, but my friend read somewhere that the SR20DR actually decreases the mpg. Though supposedly he was able to get 40 mpg on a long trip up the Oregon coast. Is he telling the truth or is that much of the story BS? What kind of mileage should I expect out of this car?
