instead of going turbo b18b in the hatch
im thinking about the sr20det in the 240sx
its something different plus stock turbo

what do yall think?
on me if you like

Etylorcen

Turbo + rwd Its not really different...lots of people have done it before. Whatever floats yer boat tho...

rjardy

definatly an opurtunity to make allot of power

we have 3 at our shop, one is for sale and needs the wireing finished,ons has a 3" exhaust FMIC and a boost controller at just ran a 13.1@105 on street tires and ones in a nissan se-r it went a 12.002@114mph same mods as the above 240 with a T28bb turbo. if something would happen to happen to my car, i think thats definitly what i would build next.

Instead of getting an SR20DET, I reccomend you but an RB25DET in because they make more power and don't cost too much more.

S13 SR20DET = 205hp/203lbs torque...VERY VERY GOOD!

SpeedMonkeyRacing

and i suppose you dunno **** about nissans cuz installing a rb25det (or even rb20det) requires tons of modification (last time i check..cost like 13k for installation). why bother w/ that **** when sr20det is lighter and can produce just as much?

2 of my boys in my racing crew got 240s with sr20dets. those things kick ***! no joke.

Stick with the SR20DET because the RB20DET and RB25DET are overweight hunks of junk that eat #6 pistons on a regular basis. Yes, the RB's will produce more torque but they also weight about 100lbs more than the SR. There are more shops familiar with SR's than RB's. RB's parts cost a lot more! blah blah blah.....

RB20DE/DET came in R31 Skylines, Nissan Leopards, R32 GTS-T Skylines, Nissan Cefiro/Laurel and couple other sedans.
RB25DE/DET came in the R33 GTS-T Skyline, and bunch of Nissan Sedans

Cuong-nutz

the sr is a good enough power plant and drops straight in with pretty much hardly no modifications. the RB should stay where it belongs--skylines and the sedans unless your top secret or signal

i agree, KA24DET

The only pain in the *** part, is that the SR20DET's are all coil-pack ignition, where as most of the cars that you're going to be putting the motor in are in-distributor coil ignitions. I guess you just need the DET harness as well.

I just got done helping a friend put a SR20DE into a NX200, they put things in weird places on the motor, and have stuff foreign to us Honda people, like EGR valves and the like....

But it could be fun.

I sold my Infiniti after I went thru the trouble of putting a JDM SR20DE in it. That **** is crammed on that motor. ONLY for me from now on.

BlueShadow

IIRC they are the 2.5L that you can find in the R32 (GTS-t? or was it the GTR?)

Dee

iron block = overweight and poor cooling so the KA and any other iron block motor (RB's) lose points in that category. Being made from iron doesn't mean that it's stronger. You "torque" guys crack me up!

SR20DET 0WNS!!1

and yeah, its been done so many times that a lot of companies i know stock parts for the engine. you want easy? just get a front clip. modifying the harness is the hardest part of the swap... and modified harnesses can be purchased. for more info and where to buy all these parts, refer to http://www.srswap.com

rOby

there is a guy in houston named duy, he had a KA that ran 10's turbo and nos. isnt the ka an aluminum block w/ iron sleeves?
id go KA turbo, thats different...sr20's are getting to be as common as gsr or ls hb for us honda guys...just wait

*Boostwerks*

Just get the SR and slap on a big turbo setup

zig

Also, go browse through the freshalloy.com 240SX archives. There's TONS and TONS of info in there. Later.

Cuong-nutz

im familiar with srswap.com
and heard about duys setup
i just need need to save up more money to get the front clip
i might as well do the RHD

csufweed

actually the front clip is only purchased to pull parts off it and have basically a map of where everything goes. no one actually welds the front onto another frame. (thats just not safe IMO)

Canuk_SiR

I was actually thinking of the det this morning on my way to work, but was thinking of putting it in a 200sx....in the trunk that is
Can you say wheelstand?

PWRVTEC
