if you put the same mods on both, the SR20 and the GA16DE then ofcourse that the SR20 will produce more power since the stock HP of SR20 is higher than of a GA16DE.
Anyway,
I just saw a '96 SE-R for sale, 56,000miles, automatic for $5,000 ...looks in pretty good condition (looks like somebody was just using it to commute). Too bad i swapped another GA16DE engine after mine died, otherwise i would have money for this one
ya, i will most likely go with the se-r, polish it, and get some black rims, or paint the se-r rims black, but i dont want to mess with the classic rims, just gonna let them sit, who knows(they might become valuable), although petes look pretty nice!!

Yes, as a matter of fact. Or attempt one at best. I have boy looking for the parts as we speak. From what I've read on the threads, 2 Gs is gonna be my cost + labor. Will take my 4 months to pay that off, unless I land another job.
man from what i read so far... an sr20 is da way to go...ya'll make it seem like why spend all da money on moddin a GA16 when it can barely match a sr20 stock...So i got my mind made up too...and i called a local auto salvage yard who has 3 sr20 motors...each goin for $400 with like 70,000 miles on them...and all of them came outta a G20....so thanks for makin this thread to whoever created it...gonna do a swap next friday when i get paid....so wish me luck on my transition...lol
make sure you know what goes into swap first. its not as easy as engine out, engine in... NO NO NO. you have to swap alot, and the costs are most likely worth more than your car!!

yeah, sometimes i think about selling my car and getting an SE-R, it would come out cheaper than swapping an sr20 motor. But since ive done a lot of work to the exterior and some of the interior of my 95 sentra .. if i sell it i know that the buyer will not appreciate what i have done and i won't get that much money for the car even with a new motor.
Back when i got my car (it was a gift from my parents-my mom used to own it) if i had a choice between B14 SE-R and regular B14 there would be no hasitation on which one to get but its too late for me to switch now IMO

i know that much...i done swaps on cars before with my homies on various cars...chevy's,toyotas, and hondas...so i know what the requirements and costs it takes...aint no big deal.
