Not definite yet, looking at costing on the opel and a SR20det conversion yet....

I need reliabality, that can take a hammering, and cheap to repair if somthing breaks....

C20XE turbo/C20LET?? 300kw and no one will be laughing at you. You can do it too if some old 200TS's are anything to go by :P

Those Opel motors are really strong, i wont deny that but i would not put one in my 200sx no ways, i hate to mix brands, i would put in an SR20 one time, then you dont have to modify anything on the body to fit it, and those 200ts engine parts are harder to find as far as i know compared to sr20, and aftermarket parts are so plenty for the sr20.

And what gearbox will you use on a ts motor to get it rear wheel drive? can you pop a rwd box onto the bell housing? sounds like too much chopping and changing to me.
