Idiot question from a newbie

[Ender1661]

I know I'm going to sound like an idiot asking this, but Im going to ask anyways so here it goes I recently found out that my car is a piece of Shlt (mitsu eclipse) and Im hella interested in buying a 95-98 240sx. the question is whats the difference between SE model and standard. Also Anything I should know before I just go buy one. thanks a lot

[Daunttless]

SEs have white face gauges, 5 lug wheels and generally fog lights. Other than that the options randomly show up on SEs and Base models.

[Ender1661]

Thats it? so basically if I can find a non se for cheaper I should go for that since they are the same horsepower and weight and brakes and everything?

[Daunttless]

yes, most people consider 5 lug wheels ot be fairly important, but thats about it.

I only have 4 lug...

[APEXi240]

and you "only" have an S13 too.

I bought a base model (didn't have much of a choice), but I prefer it over the SE anyway.

[Anand]

I have a base model ... the only thing I wish I had is LSD. other than that, I don't care about 4 lugs or not. or anyother options on the SE model

[FrEaK]

I know i have as13 genius.. i was merely stateing the misfortune of having 4 lugs..

[Ender1661]

What do u mean the LSD whats that?

[stickgoat]

LSD = Limited Slip Differential. If one wheel is slipping the power will be transferred to the one that isn't.

I have a '96 SE and am very pleased with it. What year is your Eclipse? My fiance has a '92 N/A Talon and I like it a lot. His constant starting problem is a bit of a pain, but overall I'm a big fan of 1st gen DSMs.

2nd generation 1995 eclipse RS. Like the car, power is ok, but its salvage and has problems up the ***. plus insurance is crazy

i'm suprised no one told him to use the SEARCH button. ender, you can get all your ?'s answered if you use the big red button called search

[Bbill528]

SE's have a slightly better suspension, .89 G on the skidpad!

[Tino]

(right?)
