i was just wondering how long some of you guys have had your SR20's for and have they been reliable for everyday driving. but im not talking about high hp numbers just normal mods like downpipe, fmic, exhaust etc...

I had my swap done last August and I pretty much have almost all of the bolt ons except a larger turbo and I have not had any problems (knock on wood).

The SR's reliability? Good if you got a motor in good shape. Remember they're junk yard motors typically (for what we're getting stateside) so take the condition of your motor and that's probably how reliable it'll be. My first sr although physically looked good, had bad rings. After my rebuild though, I'm sure it'll run like a champ
