Some people really frown upon these kinds of swaps.

I think they're cool and unique.

it's a turbo'd sr20de which is congruent to weak sauce.

I've seen the car myself and yeah it did hit 280WHP He showed me the dyno sheet. I was pretty close to trading my car with him. Met up with him and test drove the car numerous times. The car is a monstor Not too sure if its actually an sr20DET but its definately turbo lol. Fabrication didnt look too hard at all. Welded custom mounts, measure and make some custom axles with sr20 inners, integra/civic outers. Then get a pigtail from a 240 or whatnot, and wire directly to the motor, then tap what needs to be tapped for the original harness. Ex. speed sensor, rpm gauge, temp gauge. Doesnt really take a rocket scientist just takes a little time welding the new mounts in

fwd sr20det uses dizzy and plug wires. only the rwd sr20det uses coil on plug with CAS. maybe the awd gtir but i dont think so

if you look hard enough you can see the stock sr20det maf. if im correct and that is the stock one then that car is not making 280whp

I think it is fairly nice setup. I mean in the end everyone is swapping anything they can get thier hands on into a car now of days. I say go for it and be fast. Just like swapping a F20C into and AE86 or Miata

it should have been mid engine, rear wheel drive. That would have been amazing.

thats pretty cool, Ive never seen that car or pics, but would love to see more pics and dyno sheets, close up pics of the fab would be great.

It can't be that nice, it's been on CL for months now and the price has dropped a few times. First he said it was an sr20det, later he changed his story and said it's an sr20de with custom turbo... Anyways I wouldn't buy it and apparently no one else on CL wants to buy it either...
