Sure, there's tons of riced out examples out there with shitty chinese/korean parts, but the same is already happening with the FR-S/BRZ and will continue to be true of the FR-S/BRZ in the future. The difference is the 240sx is much, much, much cheaper, and the SR is much, much easier/cheaper to get power out of than the FA20.

I agree. I need to setup a buddys 240 better since it's currently not really great on track (running soft V3s with OTS rates though). The "stock" SR20DET swap is making over 290whp at 14psi on a stock turbo. "Stock" is in quotes because something is clearly done to the engine, I just haven't taken it apart to see what...
