'95 vs '96+

hey guys,
im looking at buying a 240sx soon, i dont know too much about the cars just yet, but which do you think is better for ease of tuning ect, the '95 w/ OBD-I or '96+ w/ OBD-II??? i want to get the perfect car this time, with my last car, i didnt have the best luck due to lack of research. o if i could get the pros/cons to the different models, thatd be great.

thanks,
Greg

Definitely 95, OBD-I FTW. With an OBD-II car, you will never pass emissions with a swapped engine.

itll prob pass sniffer but not visual which is required in some states. but whether or not it passes emission, the engine is still illegal unless you get a bar referee to okay it (atleast so ive read)
