Also, Airjockie... when you dine out in Japan, are tips included in the check or no?

as far as I know...the cams are not interchangable....

And in Japan...there is no tipping....they make a hourly wage...and the tip if any is added in the service charge....but...sometimes the rich geezers will just pay a $52 bar tab and slap down $100 and leave....

Or maybe he swapped an SR20 into it. You know what I meant. One way or another there was a swapped engine into a 240sx. lol

Reliable is the key. Better..... uhh... I would choose it over a DOHC for an allmotoro KA... however I would use a DOHC for a turbo.

Better.... I doubt.... more reliable.. yes.

if you want to go turbo the best thing to do is swap a dohc motor with less miles..... 160k for a nissan isnt bad, but once you boost it you will start finding the weak points that SHOULD HAVE lasted a lot longer.

How is it going to be MORE solid if you are going to be beating on it more?

And its an 89... Pignose, right?

89, zenki: rectangular front bumper mounted signal lights.
91, Kouki: curved front bumper signal lights - is that what you call "pignose"?

pignose is the coupe front. the hatch front is different.

kouki is more-so the jdm style.
