So I have a Nissan Navara Ute with v6 vg30e engine and 5 speed manual gearbox.

I'm looking at fitting an sr20det engine using an adapter to my gearbox ( same as rb25det) .

Does anyone have an adapter or info on what's needed? 

I've emailed alpha Omega racing re their adapter. They are only prepared to sell me a full kit which is absurd to me as a lot of parts are to fit my style of gearbox into a different chassis therefore totally useless to me.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a company in USA or somewhere else that can just sell the bell housing adapter and associated clutch components etc? It would be a shame to buy something offshore die to their " business decisions". 

Any help appreciated thanks.

I don't have first hand knowledge because of my zero care for SR20s and less than zero care for VGs......but VG gearbox into SR20 engined S chassis cars is such a common thing that there would have to be 625x10^887 mentions of how to do it on the internet already. Just have a strong google.

I'm not sure you understand. I'm not putting a vg box into an s chassis.

I'm putting an s chassis engine into a vg equipped car. Alpha Omega will not sell parts I need separately, only a complete kit as they "garauntee it will work as a complete kit".

I only need the bell housing adapter and clutch adapter.

I might be missing something but can't see how it hard to understand.

And how does that differ from what I posted? SR engine connected to VG transmission. Does not matter what the chassis is when it is just that one connection that you need to know about. And as I said, it has been done bajjillions of times before, so there must be many many people who have discussed it on the interpipes.

Thanks Jesus and Mary but Im after one that bolts on  ie in picture from alpha Omega site. 

I think it's too simple for you to get your head around. 

Does anyone know of a company that will sell me an adaptor to mount an sr20 to a vg bell housing? No removal of gearbox, no cutting, no welding. No 10 piece kit when I need 1 piece. No drama queen high horse response.

Probably not but was worth a try. Will send my ?to China because of greedy local companies.

 

 

You need to mill it down if it's going on a S13/14 motor.
Only way to get a bolt up kind of jobby is through Eleven10 engineering, he will cut/machine/weld up you a bell housing.

Even the Alpha Omega kit needs you to exchange bell housings (as they mill it down), unless you're bolting this up to a S15 SR20DET motor.

I've fitted up a few of these kits before and for correct speedo translation to your S13 dash and/or similar Nissan cluster use a Z32 N/A speedo sensor. It will out by about 5~10km/h at most.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
