Cool FC3S vs 240sx

Ok, I knew the subject would turn some obvious answers but there's a twist. FC3S with a 20B vs. a 240sx with an SR20DET. What's the general consensus on which of those two cars would win a race?

the fc. over here in aus we have plenty of silvias, 180sx's and 200sx's (basically all 240sx's with the sr20det) and power wise they are comparable to the 13bt... they've certainly got nothing on a 20b.

I'm not all that familiar with SR20DET's I was just asking around. (that and the fact that my friend thinks he's getting a 240 with an sr20, and i've got my Turbo II, so methinks i'll have to get a 20B to stop his fat mouth from talking big to everyone)

you don't need a 20b.... you might need a 20b if he was chucking an rb26dett or something in, but otherwise no

Not sure about a twin turbo SR20DET but there is the RB26DETT which is the stock engine for the Skylines.

the 13bt is equivalent to the sr20det
the 13bt gets the edge on horsepower though
the 20b is a serious high horsepower motor that would be up more in the range of the rb26dett but that is nissans superpower motor
the R26b is more of mazdas superpower motor thus the motor that won them la mans
there is no stock sr20dett ehh? i think

So I see, forgive me for generalizing.

Just go with a To4 & a good fmic on your TII and you should be fine.

A stock tII vs a 240 with a sr20 in it and a fmic the 240 will win. Ive ridden in both and the 240 pulls harder and handles better. but after 120somethin the 7 would pass it becouse that damn speed limiter.

my bro had his stock sr20det running 218rwhp. I think thats more then the stock 13bt.

blah.. get all your bolt-ons (intake + full exhaust), 720cc secondaries, a walbro fuel pump, and a boost controller. Thats all you'll need to whoop on a SR20det 240sx. Turn up that boost and blast away.

Haha this is a funny post. I beat my friends sr 240 all the time and he has a big 28, intake, full greddy exhaust, downpipe and greddy fmic, walbro fuel pump and with avc-r and safc. All I have is racing beat full exhaust, fcd, hks intake. I havent even put on my sbc id boost controller. I think he needs more fuel though because he should be beating me. Anyway, with the right turbo, fuel, ecm and tuning you should be good.

a stock sr20det doesn't do anything like 218rwhp.

Yep, the only way a SR will do 218 stock is if its a SR from a S15. Those have a T28 stock.

No, There was never an SR20DETT, and to actually fit the S15 SR into an S13 isn't really worth the trouble. Just a redtop SR with an aftermarket turbo would be a much better choice than an S15 blacktop for the money.
