as i thought the sr would be much more realiable engine much more advanced coil over plug etc etc. Altho you are treading a fine line on standard internals and gearbox at around 400bhp
i have uprated my box to the 300zx box (also known as the z32) with twin plate clutch and custom prop as these are apprently on par with the supra standard boxes.
the company that proiduce kit has a z32 on there full on low9 second drag car with standard gears etc
SR more reliable than what? A YB? At lower levels of tuning yes, on higher id say its no worse, but would cost more than a YB.
Coil on plug wont help either, its not more advanced really, and the valvetrain design is poor too.
But like a Cossie, stock engine and box can do 400.
Unlike a Cossie tho, an SR cant do 600 on stock rods and crank with perfect reliability.
But id deffo have an SR over rotary or YB at lower power levels.
And handling/stopping/looks/interior a stock or debatably even a modded SR is fucking miles better than a Cossie, esp suspension, where it light years away.
