johnny t Posted May 20, 2007 Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 tried puttin my sr20det in my corolla yesterday it is near impossible to fit without spendin big $$$ I'm shatterd i was looking forward to doin it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nedic Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 i don't understand what you mean i tried putting it in and it didn't fit. In which way doesn't it fit. If you know someone who know's how to weld its lot easeir then you think. I've got one in my ke30 and the hardest thing so far has been fitting commodore breaks and changing from cable to hyrdaulic clutch. I'm not gonna lie it isnt cheap even with calling in favours from people because all the little things add up like buying the motor, gearbox clutch master cylinder, new disks, fuel, ecu wiring etc....but i you need a hand at all just ask and i'll get some pics to ya cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 tried puttin my sr20det in my corolla yesterday it is near impossible to fit without spendin big $$$I'm shatterd i was looking forward to doin it Believe me, it fits, and it fits well. The sump it like its made for the car, it easy clears the brakes, and has plenty of room for a large radiator and fan. It clears everything, and about the only thing it doesnt do is bolt straight up.

johnny t Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 hey i forgot i wrote in this post sorry! um it hits on all the steering and cross member yeah it would be great if you could get me as much info as u can cause I'm still keen on it but in a few different minds but I'm gonna do bit more research before i do anymore. i got my sr20det in a s13 half cut so i got wiring and all that sorta stuff I'm real keen on this but i wanna be more sure and no what i have to do before i go any further.like i said every little bit of info will be apreciated!:) johnny t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh what a nissan feeling! Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 I don't know what you have hitting on the steering, i can't see anything that could. Basically all you need to do to fit the motor is cut off old engine mounts and move them, reangle them, and reweld them. The rear crossmember needs to be custom made but is real easy. Use the front uni and tailshaft from a bluebird or any old datto, don't use the silvia one as the unis are not replaceable. Other than that you need to fit a pedal box from a ta22, apparenly its not too difficult. The wiring goes to an auto electrician, probably about $600max to get that sorted. You need to get a surge tank and a lift pump and pressure pump mounted in your boot, plus get the tank modified to have a low pickup point. Do this before the auto elec sees it so he can wire it for you. Other then that, you will have to sort out intercooler plumbing, radiator (mine is custom). All of this will have to be done regardless of if you go for 4agze or sr20det, only the sr will have more grunt. :) This is a basic of what youre up against, any more questions just ask, or pm again.

johnny t Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 (edited) the gearbox where it mouts on the back of the engine thats where it hits. yeah i got a good mate that is a auto elec so that part is sorted. what car is ur sr20 out of?I'm so confused y mine hits and urs doesnt :) also the pedal box how do u mean its not to difficult what did u do?, the brake booster and the master cylinder what did u use for them and does it hit from standard mounting position?

Hi mate , like everyone else said this is a fairly easy conversion just be persistant and as far as the tunnel goes alot of us including me have had to massage the tunnel a little. tools needed ( hammer ) :) just don't go crazy with the hammer.

oh what a nissan feeling! Posted June 18, 2007 Report Share Posted June 18, 2007 the gearbox where it mouts on the back of the engine thats where it hits. I think it sound like you have the motor a bit too far off the firewall? mine sits about 15-20mm. Youre right though i looked a bit harder today and got my hands dirty, and the clearance between inlet manifold (s13) and steering box is about 10mm maybe even a touch less. I did not have to use a hammer on anything near the front of the box, only down near the shifter was a cut and weld job. My motor sits slightly to the passenger side on a minor angle, you can't see it, but you can tell if you measure. I attemped to get you some close up photos today but its already tooo dark and you can't tell much. I will try again tomoz, and post em up. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
