i get updates on japanese auctions and just got this today:

seem like a bit of a beast.....both of them under 9 grand, i like the sound of the r31 withe the gtr suspension, brakes and rims..

[discopotato03]

I have often thought a GTiR SR20DET could make a good conversion .

[Boof]

Don't be silly!! Why would you want to swap such a tough engine in the FJ with something as not so tough as the SR??? Putting an RB into a DR i can understand but im not a fan of the idea but the SR!! *shudders* YUCKSKI'S!! Leave the SR in the silvia's/poosars

[KamikazeR33]

ur better off with a ca18 than a sr20... at least the ca18 wont crack like the sr20

[Adam_RSX]

Only fat bastards that need the extra torque go for SR's

W3rd to that brother

[DR30RS]

Forget an SR,these guys have the plan....RB26!

[rsx84]

why have i wasted my life!!! DAAAMMM

[Crimmo]

SRs are poo. ZeniTani did a few RB26DETT 4 door dr30s not long after the R33 was released

[rsx84]

interesting to see they still use the dr radiator! it be nice to know with a few little mods (new turbos) you can get 300rwkws to play with!

Id love to do the SR20 conversion. Mount it way back so its like a front/mid mount engine and it weighs nothing compared to the RB being all alloy (as far as I know). It would make the car 50kg lighter and turn in and braking would be fantastic. I would only have to worry about 4 coil packs crapping themselves

(This is purely speculation that has no scientific merit which is by definition, speculation)

Why in the bloody hell would you put an SR20 into something that has the mighty FJ?? Have you seen how much room there is between the firewall and the back of the motor in a DR??? You can have a bloody picnic back there!! Why not just move the FJ back further??? I thinking that the SR should just stay where the SR is, just my school of thought....

BTW coil packs crapping themselves isnt really a problem.......

[DR JOSH]

SR is like 18KG lighter than an FJ from the specs I have seen so you wouldnt even notice.

And from experience now I can personally say CA's are really really crap, SR out of the 2, but FJ before anything else

[Boof]

Guessing that means you got the bluey going Josh?? Its not that flash now or????

[Doctor 30]

Has anyone ever mounted the FJ20 back for better weight distribution? What gearbox do you use? What do you do with the mounts?

How much heavier is the RB20 than the SR20?

18kg is still a fair amount and is backed by a six speed box. Its also more common and has newer tech so if you're tight like me it would have to be the cheapest way to go. (Not necessarily the strongest or most potential)

Actually only the S15 scores a 6 speed box outta the SR20 range....

[Adam_RSX]

Plus to move the FJ back you either need really short runners or get rid of the brake booster if you plan on moving the engine more than an inch

[Doctor 30]

good, take an s15 for a test drive, put the side into a power pole (passenger side of course) and buy the wreck.
