SR20 power! Very nice, and you were traded these to fix an R32? Lucky guy.

Tell me about the 2000 GSR badges on the red one?

Well the 2000 GSR badges on the back are remade.. but that is actually a 1993 2000 GSR, which is the Mexican Domestic Market Sentra SE-R. The car was brought from Mexico to the US by a foreign student, then traded in to a local Nissan dealer. I bought the car from the dealer for $0+$499 dealer fee+taxes because the dealer simply did not want to deal with it and no one wanted to take it to auction either (the car does not have a US VIN).

I then sold it, got it back for free, sold it again, got it back for free again, and then sold it again. Now it's back for free again. I am breaking the cycle this time, it's going to the damn junkyard once I take some parts out of it. The car was in GREAT shape (I should post pics from 2002 when I got it) back in the day.

I plan on keeping the real 2000GSR badges that are on the fenders though I can post pics of them when I'm at home.

The 96 needs a starter and fuel pump. Starter I already moved from the red B13 to the B14, fuel pump is BNIB somewhere buried in that B13... going to clean it out tomorrow and install the pump after I drain the gas.. if she runs, great, otherwise it'll get a SR20VE with 16VE N1 cams

The owner is one of my friends that I've known since high school (ie 17ish years ago). He's Military and just got moved back to Langley AFB so he just doesn't have the time or space to deal with the R32's problems (SHITTY VW!) so I'm taking care of it. The SE-Rs were going to be stored but he'll never get back to them so he's just exchanging them for the work, which I would have done anyways but hell I never turn down free cars

Thanks for the information! Sounds like a cool deal. Good luck with the project.
