    I mean don't get me wrong, I wanted an 02 spec-v for the longest time. But after the oil consumption problems they had, I decided to wait a while before getting one. Then I got my b13 which I fell in love with. I still wouldn't mind getting an 03 as a daily.

    And stock spec v's redline at 6200, which BLOWS! unfortuantely you cannot make them much higher either, due to the stock EMS system being a bitch, and there is no good stand alone EMS system available currently due to the fact the car is drive by wire :jerkit: so gayyy...

    There is a reflash available that does put the redline up to 6500 safely, but I do not trust the company enough with my stock EMS to have them perform it.

    One of the downfalls of a Spec V, but that is okay, after a while the low redline is not toooo bad.

    My QR25 redlines at 7800, but I have rev limit on the MOTEC set to 7000. I am currently looking on atl-sr20.com for a B13 as it is one of my fav cars (next to the Datsun 510 Coupe). And you are right, there are very few running examples of auto B13 (SER), but there are a few online for sale.

    ATL cops are a WHOLE lot worse on modded cars than they were in CO. I would rather live in the Springs (CO Springs) again, but of course this (ATL) is home. I do miss the guys at www.pfispeed.com, and before finding them I thought all of my cars would go to waste. There was also a decent shop in the Springs called Speedworx.

    When you get your car back we will play, SER to SER. I think it will be fun, and I am not a hater, if I lose I lose. But I take quite a few boosted cars to school w/ more WHP seeing as that a N/A car DEFINITELY hits harder on the ASS DYNO w/ a throttle position increase.

    Redline is less important, b/c it is TQ monster.

    There is a guy on sr20forum who put an sr20 crank into the qr25. That motor is insanely sick.

    I would DIE to have a B13 Se-r, or even a B14 Se-r and turbo the shit out of the bitch lol. The Spec V's are cool, and are awesome daily drivers, and with money can be made into awesome little street cars (there are some guys running 400 wheel on re-built motors, Ill have to find some videos for you, it is really cool shit) But ya, my delimma is whether I should by a cheap daily (like an old honda) and make the Spec my project, or by an old 240, or b13-14 or something along those lines and slowly build a fast race car.

    decisions decisions....

    LoL that will be awesome J, just be ready for your car to kick my cars ass...for NOW at least! give me 6 months and I might be able to take you!

    Damn, I was afraid of that, I remember from living as a kid the cops were pretty serious, and in CO, its like, I never see any, the CSP is practically non existent if you ask me!

    Ya halfbaked, that guy travis who did the "SQR" (SR20+QR25) made one hell of a car! There are some sweet highway pull videos where they literally have a hard time talking when they hit the gas because it is so powerful lol. they talk any between pulls than all of a sudden he will hit the gas, and it is quiet for like 10 seconds, all you hear is the motor, than he comes off the gas, and they like continue talking and freaking out lol till they hit the gas again. It is classic!
