His "few mods" I bet will be just one giant bottle with a shot that will blow his GA up, hey he'll win, but for me it comes down to who drives home.

I'm not hating on sentra's at all, actually in my post I said I like them. But an XE...comon.. I thought this would be common sense... The XE has to face the facts... :futile:

Hey S86d, you like your J30 LSD? I'm caught between a J30's or a used 240sx/300zx n/a one. From what I've read here, the J30's gearing is different so it's slower off the line. So, did you go from a open diff to the J30? And how would you rate it performance wise in a straight line?

ha good comment on the waiting to race. Tachyon I really like my diff it locks very smooth. the gearing is so small of a change that you wont notice the difference (straight line) but turning... much more control and predicting!!

All right, its settled, I just wanted enough info. Now we can both stop bickering. When we race, we'll post stuff up. BTW, spring is the latest, maybe by the end of this year in December maybe. Thanks for all of your input.

Man sorry for assuming, I just like the under dog. So everybody attacked the sentra and I think it is a possibilty he will win. You said your uncle was ficxing up a pig nose? So is that the car you are gonna run? If so does it have the stock sohc? I know that would be a pretty close race. Yes I realize this started with you saying a de powered 240sx. But I think the e would be a good race.

No, thats not the car I am gonna run. Its an 89 and needs a new clutch, flywheel and a number of other things. He said it'd be about 2k to get it up and running and it has a salvage title. Im not gonna pay him 2k for that. So im just gonna stick with getting a 91-94 S13 because I eventually plan on swapping for an SR and I dont want to have to deal with the the little problems with the tach and the power steering reservoir when its swapped. I eventually got nacho to switch to a 240sx but he said he couldnt get it until his senior year. He still would like to modify his GA and waste money into when it isnt even worth that much anyway. Ok then, hope I answered your question.
