I've always been a domestic truck owner... now my truck is at the point it isnt a reliable daily driver but its getting ready for drag and show my question for the experts is i found a 97 200SX SER at a local dealer that has 72K on it very clean interior and motor (appearance) and exterior is clean except for a dent in the rear quarter looks like a truck bumper hit it there... my question is what is the life expectancy of one of these motors in the SER???? what kind of milage can i expect from it?this is goin gto be a daily driver... but i am used to a 15 second truck soon to be a 13 second truck so I think by that everyoen can tell i have a lead foot and drive my vehicles hard well let me know any advice... btw this is a Texas car and has always been so no rust asking price is 6680

Hutch, as with any other nissan out there, as long as you take care of the engine, don't be surprised to get over 200k out of it. Plus if it ever does die, its got the SR20de in it, and well a bluebird swap is a good choice. BTW, my 95 240sx has 178k on it and its still going strong. I had a 93 Maxima that had 180k before I totalled it (*tear), and well, that ran like a champ before I set it out to pasture.
