power gain?
i dunno the first day i had my SR20 it felt sort of sluggish next day i put my walbro fuel pump and my lsd on and i felt a huge diff in power.
i dont know if switching to a better fuel pump on a stock SR will make it gain power or maybe i cleared up some gunk that built up from sitting in a junkyard for a few years after driving it.
so i raced my bros SRT-4 and i took it by half a car hes %100 stock and i got stock redtop with hks intake greddy fmic and a 3" catback. he calls my 240 a POS but it makes it all the better when my 12 year old POS is faster then his "SRT-4" in a straight line and turning and i have power windows and a/c!
cant wait for my boost controller to go in and ima boost it at 14psi

meh i like my 240, i dont consider it a POS. although ive seen some 240s that are pretty ****ty. but theyve all got potential. isnt it 25yrs for a car to become a classic?

yeah I think its 25 years to be considered classic.
But yeah 240sx really arent classic s yet but, I think they are becoming harder to find cuz everyone and their mother wants to buy one and "drift."
I still love 'em no matter what.

idkn, there are some instant classics. ford gt40? dodge viper? skyline gtr? personally i would upgrade/replace a few things before i just turn up the boost.... like the wastegate actuator. maybe get a wideband on there just to see how you are running.

Good point, but the instant classics are usually all hi-end sportscars which cost $. No car manufactures in the US release anything like "economy sportscar" like the 240,Corolla gts,etc
