1) What Turbos bolt up to the stock exhaust manifold for a SR20DET? Any that can make 350whp?

2) Will a SR20DET bolt up to a KA24's Tranny?

3) How much is a fair amount for a SR20DET (everything needed for the swap)?

4) What parts would be needed to run 350whp on a SR20DET (daily driven, pump gas preferred, but I have acces to some Race gas ~112 octane iirc)?

5) Are the 89-91 240's RWD? (I believe so but just to make sure)?

Sorry for the Newbie questions, but I tried to search but the function wasn't working. If you have any sites for me to look at where I can learn about any of my questions feel free to post them. Thanks in advance, Anton.

Thanks, I have been searching the internet after I posted this and found the answer to number two (I think), I don't think it will bolt up to a KA24 tranny. I am near Oakland/San Francisco Bay Area, CA. Are there and good shops near me (SoCAL is like 6-8 hours away).

1) What Turbos bolt up to the stock exhaust manifold for a SR20DET? Any that can make 350whp?
That can make 350rwhp...none that I know of, but I don't know a lot about SR stuff...
I don't think you'd want to push a t28 (or even a t3 if there is an adapter for it) to 350hp...it'd just be blowing hot air.
Best bet would be a new manifold and a t4 or t3/4 hybrid.

2) Will a SR20DET bolt up to a KA24's Tranny?
Yes and no. It will not "bolt up" the the KA tranny will work with the SR motor if you get an SR bellhousing. I'm not sure what kind of work it takes to make that fit, but it has been done.

3) How much is a fair amount for a SR20DET (everything needed for the swap)?
http://www.unstable-hybrids.com
http://www.srswap.com
http://www.boostdynamics.com
http://www.mckinneymotorsports.com
Check those out...

4) What parts would be needed to run 350whp on a SR20DET (daily driven, pump gas preferred, but I have acces to some Race gas ~112 octane iirc)?
You definately don't want to have to use anything higher than 93 for daily driving. I don't know what all is required but you have to upgrade most everything to run 350 safely...internals will be fine for a while but I don't know how long they will hold up.
Check the above linked sites for more info.
Also see http://www.freshalloy.com they have a lot of usefull SR information.

5) Are the 89-91 240's RWD? (I believe so but just to make sure)?
Yes, all 240sx's are RWD.

Are there any Ex. manifolds that will allow a Garrett turbo to bolt up? If not what turbo's bolt up to stock? HKS turbos are really expensive, I want to use a 60-1 (T3/T4) garrett. What parts would be needed other than Injectors, AFC,  I/C, Turbo, Full turbo back exhaust, clutch, Cams, Pistons and rods? Anything?

Twenty36_1 · 06-08-2002, 01:19 AM

Also is the stock turbo a Mitsubishi? Isn't a T28 a mitsu turbo? If so will turbos that bolt to a Eclipse (stock) manifold bolt up to a SR20DET stock exhaust manifold? Sorry for the questions, and thanks again?

So your willing to take the engine appart to replace the pistons and rods but you don't want a new manafold?

IIRC the only manifold adapter is to fit a t3 and I'm not 100% sure if that exists or if it is a custom job.

Just do it right the 1st time and but a whole new manifold, since your already doing everything else right.
