M43 is easier and cheaper to maintain as it has less sensors than N42/N46. Plus its SOHC as oppos to DOHC. Other various parts are cheaper too like water pump and what not and it doenst havet vacuum pump for the brakes.
If cost is not an issue use fully syn or semi syn is just good enough but u need to change often lor...
