Was done a few year ago from the guys at Finallap in Ottawa, Ontario.

 

Why does it amaze you that it's FWD?

 

what kind of tranny would mount up to that?

..the delsol is front wheel drive...lol

 

Exactly what he said ^^. Aren't there several sr20's that are front wheel drive like the sentra se-r, infinity g20.

The SR20DE out of a B14 Sentra SE-R FWD ... transmission bolts right up.

wife says it's gotta go?? the guy has no spine.

Why must people who do these kind of weird swaps riced out on the outside? I don't like this del sol.

 

my g20t has an sr20de front wheel drive with a limited slip trans stock.

 

Yeah.....Been done a few times...tons of power...I'd live to put one in my Sol.

 

that ****'s ugly

 

I don't see how to justify that swap over a b18b turbo.

 

its FWD because its not a 240sx sr20 (wich is RWD), its a 200sx sr20 (wich is FWD).

 

/\ if that car was "MaDd JDM'd out! " then it would recieve good credibilty.

The sr20det is a mass produced, and a factory stock assembled w/turbo. Unlike a b18 turbo which is not factory built w/turbo or mass produced. But to custom fit a sr20det in a honda engine bay cost $$$ parts, fabrication, labor, tuning (if any) etc. Ya it'll cost a bunch.

So going b18 turbo would have been a better route. I guess the owner of the car wanted to try something different. But I understand your point on that.

for effort, and success on the build, not sure how it runs though.

Plus power gains are completely different, but that's a another story.

If it's an SR20DET, it's not from a 200SX or a Sentra SE-R. He just used the SE-R or 200SX transmission.

 

gosh that thing looks like poo.

 

It looks like a ricer'd mazda mx-3 with a crazy fast motor.

 

no one is going to argue that thing looks like ****, but it probably makes more torque than any honda has ever produced

At 203 lb/ft? Nope.

All the Honda V6's make around 250 lb/ft.

 

Interesting... However, I personally would stick to my B Series and K series engines.

 

o i always thought that motor was rear wheel drive guess now? idk jus sumthing unusual

 

SR20det FWD configuration motors only were available in Bluebird, Avenir, and GTi-R with awd gearboxes.

However, it is most likely just a boosted SE-r motor

prob. because he is use to knowing 240's w/ those, when actually Sentra SE-R's are the SR20DE and then just turbo it so there you get your SR20DET lol

 

also a nx2000 has a sr20de. the pulsar gti-r has one as well sr20det.

the FWD transmission will NOT bolt right up to a RWD Silvia/180sx SR20DET that most people are thinking of. It would have had to come out of one of the transverse mounted SR20DETs.

 

for the effort, but I would have just done a B18B-t swap...
