What shall i do? LCR p/x for Nissan 200sx?

[antzleoncupra]

well, ive just been offered a swap for my 53 plate LCR 225 for a right mint 200sx s14a Touring. Its running a garret gt28rs and the list goes on. Its running 320-340hp.

The thing is, i love my Leon to bits but i have a friend whos just bought a 200sx and his is similar power and i thought the LCR was quick, this is a different league. RWD just seems more fun, only thing im worried about is how reliable are the Nissans? Ive been told they take 400hp on standard internals? Just wondering if anyone else knows much about these or if any of you think im mad and should keep the Leon

Even my g/f wants me to keep the Leon lol she loves it haha. I must remmeber that my LCR isnt even mapped yet but all the good mods to get a good one. arghhh stuck

cheers mate, thing is, hes local and has a genuine reason for sale. The previous owner before him owned SXOC or something, so its a real beautiful example. Had stacks spent.... i just am really tempted, we view eachothers cars this saturday.

hmmm ive heard they are suppose to be good but how much is the 200sx worth ???

if they aint very reliable then thats a big no no

exactly, but chain driven and ive heard many say they are very reliable. i guess its a mixed opinion sort of thing lol. Its worth 6k easy mate.

IMO the leons better looking better relible and much more practical

MPG on 320BHP gunna be a guzler
fixing cost =much higher
gotta be reall carefull with IC to i think! my mates kept blowing the pipes off or sumit like that and theres a reall big age diference in the cars

 

[Seat Gooner]

how come he wants to swap it ??

sounds like its to good to be true lol

but then again you might only get offered it once so you could always sell it if it dont appeal to you

 

[antzleoncupra]

yea i know, well he does too many miles to work and back now, cant handle a 5 speed and the car is too nice to drive daily he says. I was thinking, ive owned two Leons now, love them, but hey, ive been offered this, maybe if i try it and i dont like it, i can always sell and get another Leon? lol. Its only metal ay.

this is the link, what do you guys reckon?
