^Yeah, the US has tons of SR20DE's. The person that originally mentioned it probably meant the SR20DET. Gotta remember the "T".

Alfa Romeo built 500 8C's, and the US received more than any other country. Just not a lot so one could be mistaken for thinking we didn't get it (50 were sold in the US).

Nice Nissan Primera (spell that right?) but that car was only sold in the US as an Infiniti G20 (think thats right?) with the SR20DE, same engine as Sentra SE-R.

Nissan never certified the SR20DET for sale/use in the United States.
