has anyone ever doen this my friend came up with teh idea since he has a sr getting shiped from japan right now for his 240sx...he said alot of people drop sr's in datsun 510....

 

you had better run strait to the bathroom and wash your mouth out with soap.
And then come back and post that you did, and we will pretend you never said that.......

 

thats a terrible idea... i'd rather turbo charge a rotary than run some sr20det...

 

I wouldn't throw one in a RX-7. For the price and the hassle of doing it I would just go with a 13b rew. But a 1960-something datson roadster on the other hand would be sweet. I actually thought of doing this myself. Turns out the 7 was more cost effective for me. I think the roadster weighs less than the 7 too.

There are also alot of options with the SR20DET depending on what year engine you got. 205~250 stock hp and there is a six speed gear box on the later years.

imagine popping the hood on this bad boy and seeing a black top SR20DET and crusing with a 6 speed.

 

Been done on an FD before.

 

eww... i'd rather see someone put a LS1 in a FD than a sr20det, and even then, the only way i'd like to see an LS1 in an FD is with twin turbo's like the guy here in WA has... quite sick... 900rwhp in a FD, and reliably...

 

Are you talking about jimlab? Or is his NA? (it wasn't in the car yet when I saw it, and I can't remember at this point)

 

i cant wait till my friend puts his in on his 92' 240sx with a s13 silvia front end

 

he has a 3inch striahgt pipes from the turbo all the way to the 4inch N1 can.........im thinking about a 12at from rotary shack how are they engine wise it oly cost $1200

 

i think it was jimlab actually... i was showing the pics of that motor/twin turbo setup out of the car the other day, and my buddy(a chevy guy) was drooling

 

its either get that for $1200 or rip mine out and rebuild it up at that shop in NC north of charlette

 

ALL of it is a damn shame and waste of time and $$$...yeppers...

 

There's a Series 1 with an SR-20DET in the latest Fast Fours. The SR is a very nice engine but there's no way I'd put one in an Rx-7. First of all, it has pistons and secondly, a turbo rotary has just as much potential, is just as reliable and is easier to swap in.

 

i totally agree

 

hey it was jsut a thought but i dont have the money for a sr but WHAT ABOUT THE ENGINES ROTARY SHACK SELLS?????

 

dont bother and turbo your current motor.

 

i should rebuild mine and turbo it hmm....let me go read that other post and see how hard it is since im not that awsome with car stuff since im just now trying to get into it

 

i have seen this done before. a guy actually won a drift competition with this setup. go figure. lol

 

why sr20det wen u can go rb26dett ....*quietly walks to washroom to washout mouth with soap and more soap*

 

man if ur gunna to a engine swap atleast go big..350 or better

 

put a chevy big block in that fb

 

no thanks either a 12at 13bt or 20bt can anyone help help me out on a engine swap what goes into it what i need if i do a swap

 

what's wrong w/ SR even if it's pistons? enough w/ all this "no pistons"... if you guys do a search, OR maybe even drive your chevy tahoe, you'll wonder why pistons are used for most production cars. it pulls just as hard.

having an all motor s2000 FB would hang and if not, kill a turbo II in an FB.

personally, i see the rotary now as a novelty motor.. it's good don't get me wrong, but i like my piston motors as much as rotaries

 

What drugs are you on?
