This. I bought a '97 200sx SE-R for a reasonable price that already had an exhaust. Then I modified it by getting a cold air intake ($150) - ebay header ($150) - JWT ECU used ($250) - Gspec pulley ($125) - Tomei 270 cams ($260) - Exedy clutch ($400).... timing @ 19.. so something like $1400 in mods... MAYBE making 160-165hp to the wheels..

but I have '92 with the VE swap with a few mods and it would blow the DE off the road.

Is your car stock or have some mods done to it?
Show us a pic of the car and a pic under the hood and maybe we can help you out a little more if we know this info.

Now that's damn good advice!!

1 - Tune the car up. Spark plugs, oil change, and check the O2 sensor.
2 - Intake filter
3 - Advance the timing from 15* to 17* since you are all motor and pretty much stock. This will pick up a few ponies.
4 - Get a header, this will help the DE the most for now.
5 - Don't beat on the car to hard(driving it) and take care of the small things that are not that expensive.
6 - After you've done the above, continue to focus on school. These cars will be around, but focus on what is important as this is a hobbie. You don't want to get in over your head to early.

P.S. SR24VE is custom. They don't make those from the factory. We are talking about taking a block and having it bored and sleeved from some serious power. $$$$$$.

Ok so I have been searching yay. But :-( I'm confused from the sr20ve Because there is the 1.6L then there's the 2.0L. But the 2.0L on Wikipedia the 2.0L has a whole different look then the jdm 2.0L I see on websites, because the one I see on the jdm sites looks exactly like the 1.6L but with a black cover and has the same Neo vvl on the head. So what I was wondering is there a different look for the 2.0L? Or is the 2.0L that I am seeing really the 1.6L?

If you're going by vavle covers from a trust worthy shipper it should be this:

Red Neo VVL Cover = SR16VE VVL N1 motor (RARE)
Example: http://www.sr20-forum.com/naturally-aspirated/48420-fl-pulsar-vzr-n1-motor-parts.html

Blue Neo VVL Cover = SR16VE VVL motor
Example: http://www.sr20-forum.com/naturally-aspirated/60620-sr16ve-motor-parts-08-07-12-a.html

Black Neo VVL Cover = SR20VE VVL motor
Example: http://www.sr20-forum.com/naturally-aspirated/58644-sr20ve-motor.html

Ready for more!?!?!?!

Click at your own risk...

Black 20V cover = SR20VE 20V motor
Example: http://www.sr20-forum.com/members-rides/49261-my-friends-92-burgundy-ser-20v-motor.html

There's actually a turbo version of the 20V motor as well.

You're getting better. Lol.

Use your b13 trans. Its is identical to a b14. It will bolt up to a ve engine. Also make sure you use redline shock proff oil/ or something comparable in your trans. Theses engines respond very well to modification and hold gobbs of h/p. Unfortunately the transmissions dont, unless you run heavy oil. There are alternatives but digest the basics first.
