Aren't Sr20's like 5k with install and everything else? I could be wrong, but that would beeeee....4,300 more than my car. lol. KA works for me...unless I win the lotto. As for the pic....the new anti-shoplifting trend...hahaha

lol nah go ahead and put it as your sig, don't matter to me. I thought it was ***kin hilarious too. That would definatly stop me from shoplifting. But yeah, about Sr's...damn I need to get pretty rich before I upgrade my engine. Thats pretty far down the line for me, I just got my car a couple weeks ago, and theres a shtload of stuff that needs to be done first lol. Damn it would be nice to have a Sr20 though....*sigh*

yeah but theres less parts for it... and its got even less displacement than the sr20...
On a side note i think i found out why my car isnt running right... my dad told me to find out how many degrees of crank rotation are on each tooth of the distributor. About 27.5. You can only rotate the distributor maybe 20 degrees on the bolt, which means that theres about 7 degrees you cant hit. BUT, since the distributor makes the plugs fire on both the compression and exhaust strokes, you can rotate the distributor 180 degrees and still have it run. This seems logical because it would make up for the 7 degrees im missing. Those 7 degrees were the deciding factor in why my car isnt running i think. Ill let you guys know later today

Damn you must make a lot of money to be able to afford an 180sx shipped in just...what...3 months? I guess I could probably afford it too now that I think about it...but I buy to much alcohol during the summer lol.
