They aren’t for stock FWD SR20DETs, they are for swapped SR20DETs or SR20DE’s that have been turbo’d and wouldn’t fit the RWD so that’s how they differentiate.
As for CA18DETs yeah they got turbo pulsars (diff name though) and the older bluebirds had the CA18DETs too
Becareful about the tranny you use, if it’s used make sure the 5th gear synchros aren’t fubar otherwise it’ll pop out of gear while you’re cruising down the highway.
It’s a very common problem which for some reason my 250,000km NX2000 doesn’t have
But if the tranny is good it’s a STRAIGHT bolt on, you shouldn’t need to fab up anything, and the tranny itself is pretty robust on stock output but anything above 300 or a lot of HARD runs and you better have spare ones around.
Interesting… Since the GTiR had a “better” SR20DET, could you mate the motor to a RWD tranny and get all the benefits of this better motor?
EDIT: I mean, if I wanted it on a 240, not on the hybrid
Bolt pattern is all wrong…
I’m not even sure if the head would even bolt on correctly, a lot of tube hook ups etc will be in the wrong place since it was designed for a FWD style layout. (Things like oil filter placement , coolant in/out etc)
Sigh… Would it have killed you to give a friendly and helpful reply like nocwage? Seriously, not everyone is an expert in every field, you really shouldn’t just bash people cause you feel like it. I may not know nissan engines inside and out, but I can think of many things right off the top of my head that I know much more than you about.
I realize it must get annoying when people ask obvious questions covered by FAQ’s, but this wasn’t one of them, so seriously, if you’re just gonna flame someone, why bother replying at all?
And so I don’t forget, thx a lot for the help nocwage, I hope more people end up giving helpful answers to stupid questions like mine, because then there’d be a lot less fighting on the entire board.
lets not forget honda kicks ass in the four cylinder market, i don’t think nissan has come close to a record 6.71 down the track.
Don’t get me wrong, i love Nissan too, which is why i am currently pouring some bucks to revive a s13.
As long as its japanese, i’m happy as a fly on shit.
I just hate the fact that other jap fanatics have to hate on honda’s, but honestly i don’t think a n/a car like mine that runs 12s on street tires is a piece of shit.
b20 fed integra?
As in just a b20 or a b20/16a head ?
(A buddy of mine built a b20 with a b16a head and put it in his delsol with 11.5:1 compression!!)
I’m gonna say pretty darn impressive to the engine part, but laugh at the del sol part (not that it’s a bad car, it’s just a tad too feminine for most :))
Sorry for bringing up an old topic… saw this and had to say something. I’ve owned 2 240sx’s, an 89, and a 91. Beautiful cars, and more fun than I care to admit.
However, if you guys think that all it’s going to cost is $2500 in parts and stuff to get it all running. Your’ kidding yourselves. You’re looking at an easy $5k to do it properly. And that’s if you have connections to get parts at cost.
But it’s fun, however… had I the chance. I wouldn’t do it again.
