As it stands, I am looking to sell my turbo Talon. At which point I will have around $10k to spend on a S-13 or 14 and SR20 Swap. I broused through heavythrottle's SR20 FAQ, but I still have a bunch of Q's.

I was wondering about which car to choose. I have heard the 240sx hatchback (180sx?) with the s-15 front end looks great. Anyone have pictures (looks do matter to me)?

As of now I am looking at 95-95 S14's (like those rounded headlights and the relatively low price). I was wondering what model to choose? SE, LX, whatever they are.

Also, what's this about a 240 with a stock LSD? I like this idea. Seems like a fat chance finding one though.

Thanks for any help....sorry for the idiocy, but I am used to the DSM world :-)

probably the most readily found pics of a 180 with the S15's are the signal ones that have been plastering the magazines lately. If you're going to get an S14, I'd say get the SE since they've the 5 lug hubs. Stock LSD, go to a junkyard and find one that's probably the easiest way to go. Either that or you can check out ebay. Plenty of that type of info on NICO though. Search around as there are viscous and there are helical and if you're lucky, the nismo clutch types.

Also, for the s14's, if the car has ABS, then it will have the lsd(and vice versa). The abs and lsd came in a package for the 95-98 years....
