Default Need help with decision.........98 GSR or 96 200SX?

I would like a GSR but it costs 7k in comparison to the 200SX less than 3k price and performance potential. I'm just wondering which should I get? I appreciate the input.

I love my GSR. But.... I might get shot for saying this, I might get the 200. You can spend a lot less by the sr20 and have a fun rwd.

Oh. I didn't know it was FWD. In that case get the integra. If you can get a 240 then I would. You can get the sr20det with a tranny for about a g.

I had a 98 200SX SE-R, and it was not as fun to drive as my 2000 GS-R. It was slightly slower, does not handle as well as the 91-94 Sentra SE-R by any means, and the sr20de in that car does not perform as well as the classic SE-R (different intake manifold and obd2 of course). The SR20 is fairly bulletproof though, so it will probably stand up well for only $3,000.

There are a few annoying issues though - such as the famous 'start-up clatter' on most 200SXs. It bugs, but it is harmless.

Just make sure it's an SE-R, the SE is a piece of **** 115hp 1.6

what do you mean the feature car?

I would get the Integra... But if you were debating whether or not to get a 240 or teg, Id probbaly tell you to get the 240.

Unless you want to do a lot of work upgrading the car, I would go with the Integra. More power and the handling is much better.
