I just bought a 91 SE-R. The suspension is pretty much shot. Can anybody give me the links to some other SR20, B13 Sentra, or SE-R boards? Also, any turbo SR20 board links would be nice as that is what I plan on doing.

So, I've checked out sr20de.net and its pretty cool. Could anybody tell me what free or cheap mods I could do to this car in the meantime until its turbo'ed? Also, what is the usual reccomendation for suspension? Thanks from the n00b. :)

For the suspension, how much you looking to spend? I can name good setups for under $500 or as much as $5000...so I need more info on what exactly you are looking for.

Also, on a side note, I see you are from Auburn, AL. This year's national SE-R convention happens to be in Birmingham, AL. You should check that out! Registration is still open. Check out http://www.serca.org/convention for more info on that. It is october 31st through november 2nd. Maybe I'll see ya there :)

I looked at a 93 se-r last night. It was priced at wholesale because it had a blown motor and a bad clutch. Am thinking about buying it and rebuilding the motor and using it for a auto-x car.

Yeah, I ended up just getting some GR'2s and Hyperco's because the price of the AGX's just went up a TON and I don't feel like blowing that kind of $$ on my play car right now. Anyway, I don't think I'm going to be able to make it to the gig in Birmingham as I have some family business to tend to that weekend :(

But anyway, the car is getting some new tires tomorrow and then it'll be good as new :) I really, really enjoy this car alot....so different than my A4 :D

i thought the price increase was about $50 for the b13....

Also you would be better off buying a JDM highport motor than rebuilding the existing motor...its waaay cheaper.

I don't think you need this much in autox but watch out for 5th gear pop out.
