[spider_slayer]

i was jsut wondering how many people here use their sr20det as a daily driver. i have been having issues with mine and am getting frustrated. i want this to be my daily and was jsut curious if people do it and how many there are.

[silva180sx1515]

i been using mine as a daily driver for about 6 months now

[SpeedRacer1]

I've been using my SR as a daily driver for about 3 years now. Get between 25 and 30 mpg in stop and go traffic. Just luck of the draw on engines, some are great, some are lemons.

[sil180]

Been using mine for about a year. No problems. A couple of track days as well.

[SoCalS14]

Drive mine everyday...no problems...except when I upgrade something! down time blows.

[spider_slayer]

down time seriously does suck. i'm getting sick of fixing things. i would like to rebuild this summer but college comes first and i lack funds for both

I use mine as a daily. Problems I've had are nothing out of the ordinary I guess for getting a used motor.

[Tartan]

I've beat the heck out of mine for about a year and it still runs strong... just little problems here and there, ex: alternator died

[rudee023]

Daily driven for about 10 months now. Little stuff here and there to fix. Not too bad.

[Dugi]

daily driven, this is my only car so..... don't leave home without it. expect to have some problems cause they are used engines and are sold out of wrecked cars or unusable cars, I think, correct me if i'm wrong

Daily Driven....

[DriftS14]

Daily driver for a year and a couple months. 115 degrees or 3 feet of snow, never any problems (knock on wood).

[pgt892]

Daily driver currently, but I plan to repair my FWD for all the snow we are supposed to get.

[spider_slayer]

it certianly would be nice to have a second car! that way i could pull my engine right now and jsut rebuild. but yea i've only have small things go wrong like the alternator died and that sucked to find a replacement! and now there is no hot air in my cabin so i'm trying to find the problem there...replaced the thermostat the other day and i hope that has fixed it. oh well, its the price we pay for having a kick *** engine right?!? /end rant

[chickentendah]

Daily driven. 30mpg freeway. 21mpg street. I go easy on the motor and drive conservatively.

[got2b240]

yeah i daily drive on mine for about 8 months now, and no major problems other than that anoying *** turbo gasket !!! LOCK TABS ARE EVIL!!! Before you put your motor in, make sure you get the new gasket from a fairlady and get rid of those locktabs and use loctite and lockwashers )) I currently have a leak there and it SUX

[Fenvy]

damn you guys.. I get about 17 or 18 mpg and I am running rich alittle

maybe tuning will help my mpg?

[spider_slayer]

tuning very wel could help your mpg. i'd check for other things though cause tuning is EXPENSIVE. i'm no expect on how the fuel system works so maybe someone reading this thread will be able to help you out

[240SXer]

I get about 28mpg with my GT25R, I've had my SR for about a year and a half, I've put about 16k on it. It's not my primary car. But i'm a street racer, it's hard to find the good races when you're not driving your car!!!
