I like the s14 's better cause theres less out the ,and the seem to hold the value better.But they should be two seater as the back seats like a esky to seat in.lol.standard skylines look tuffer but if your gona do mods the 200 is the way to go.

p.s if he gets a 200 just make sure it gets lowerd 4inch's cause there real high:lol:

There is a crap load more of the newer 200sx's around that R33 in melbourne so I wouldn't say you're going to get anything more unique. Skylines have more power, more potential for power if that's what you're after. If you want something that looks sporty and has potential then go the 200SX. Guess you have the advantage of local parts seeing as it was sold locally.

$22k for a 98 200sx seems to cheap too me.. probably got problems of some type? They seem to hover around the $30k mark.

My friend has a 98 200sx mid spec 5sp and he paid $21k its very clean and no troubles the guy owed alot of cash ,had to sell quick.yes theres more s15 200sx out there but not s14 series 2,most are series 1 with the gay front headlights.

and as for less power ,have u ever raced 1?trust me there not that slow at all.my mate can blow stock 33's and all his got is 14psi ,3inch cat back.It may not make as much kw's as a 33 but think about it ways 300kg less!

I don't know whether I said heaps less power, just potential power but really you can do anything to either... just you can probably take a gts-t further for the same price. And on figures for standard form: S14 is 0-100 in 6.9...R33 GTS-T 6.2

But no, i've never raced one - but i've seen plenty of pretty insane ones with 300kw+ r/w like in mags, etc. I look forward to giving it a try at the track though sometime in my R33 ..could have a 180sx/200sx vs Skylines day that would be pretty good fun :P

But anyway, i don't know much about the 200sx and all the in's and out's so i'll keep quiet now :bahaha: I like them, and considered getting one but i like the skylines.

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
