after doing many searches in various forums and threads i found nothing on this...so can anyone please tell me how much horsepower a stock 1998 sr20de puts to the wheels?? thanks
wow, thats more than what the regular sentra has as base hp, hmm, the civic si has 160base and i hear it puts 130 to the ground but our se-r's have more torque so i think we can either beat them or keep up with them?
yeah, i have a friend at work who drives an si with an exhaust, and i plan on racing him with an se-r but i suck bad at it, so i'll let my other friend who also works there race the car for me (he's a seasoned mustang racer ).............so it will come pretty close i assume
Stock for stock... no. Owning both cars I can tell you flat out that the Si if launched correctly (big if because it's not easy) should be able to beat the SE-R every time. Don't get me wrong, I like the SE-R a lot more than I do the Si but the Si is the faster car stock for stock.
hey yosho not true..... cause with an older se-r with the better stock cams itll be the si....now with the newer version of the sr20de i dont know the outcome but si dont have much at all inless he has v-tech controller then hell get beat stock but htat car has way low torque....if im not please let me know..ill stand corrected

I'll have to go with Yosho, since he OWNS both. lol I've beaten SI's stock for stock, but not at the track. That's what really counts.
I beat Si's on a regular basis as well (but with i/h/e/flywheel). Neon's, escorts, cavaliers/sunfires, and Foci with the same stuff all eat my dust too. The closest anyone has come was a GSR with an i/e/wing...maybe the driver's don't know what they are doing, and i know that some have been automatics, but it's pretty regular that none of these cars touch me...
well fromt he b13 seriers se-r to my under standing thye suppose to be able to beat si's(track or not)...it all comes down to the driver though.so maybe ya need to learn j/k/a hehe:0P anyhow...si's over rated in my opinion....even other honda owners think so to...its not a fast car at all...now gsr lil different model we talking here:0P... anyhow...lol peace:0P
The only way to get any happiness out of a B16 is to swap it into an EG civic CX model weighing in at 2094lbs. Then you got power to weight ratio on your side. Otherwise, if its still in stock trim in the Si, that car is a fucking tank! Put a fork in it.. its cooked!

for all that b16's are rated(like165hp?) they only put down 140-144 at the wheels and like less than 110 ft-lbs of torque. My torque curve never goes below 100 ft-lbs(128 peak) and I have 142 hp at the wheels, so even spreadsheet racing I still whoop it. They don't even hum til vtec hits at 5500, I hit max torque at 4600 and max hp at 6600 and by then it's too late.
Like I said, I'm not happy that the Si can beat our SE-Rs. But it does.
The Si is tricky to launch correctly... which is why I think a lot of SE-R owners can beat them. If the Si owner knows how to launch it properly though, the Si is faster. I've done a lot of head to head testing on this (both driving my high port and low port SE-Rs and driving the Si).
I own a '96 200SX SE-R
a '93 Mexican Classic SE-R (Called a Nissan 2000 GSR)
and the '00 Civic Si.
The MDM SE-R is a closer match for the Si, but the Si still beats it.
