I want out...

[HaLo]

Do you guys know ANYONE that could sell me a S14 SR20DE motorset (engine, harness, ecu, maf)? You read right... No "T"...

I can't afford to rebuild my SR20DET and I really don't want to buy another motorset to blow it to pieces...

If I can find somewhere to get that motorset, I might be putting a LOT of things for sale soon...

[AKADriver]

I'd go back to KA24DE if you want to go N/A, but that's just me. Get a nice clean S14 KA24DE with no swirl control and no AIV.

Check out what some people have done with relatively simple mods. One of the guys that instructs at a lot of the track events in my area has his '98 240SX making 161hp at the wheels with a homebrew intake, N1 dual, JWT cams, JWT ECU, and that's IT. That's getting close to stock SR20DET territory... and the 154lb-ft he makes would never be attainable from an SR20DE.

[HaLo]

Maybe so... But S14 SR20DE has VTC, makes 160hp stock, has a higher redline, will make close to the same power as KA with same mods... +, I won't have to buy a lightened flywheel or performance clutch, since I already have them.

I also believe a bit lighter.

[DRIFTING_SIL_EIGHTY]

i maybe able to locate one for you. the only thing though is that im in cali and shipping im assuming will be expensive. if your interested ill get some quotes for you by this weekend.

Doesn't say anything about VTC though.
It comes with an automatic. But I would think that the SR20DET transmission would fit. I dunno

[HaLo]

I know... the guy does not ship to Canada though...

I am so confused,... I really don't know what to do anymore.

[kings_blend]

since your in montreal why dont you look over at osaka motors or jspecautosports.com

[wootwoot]

there are a lot of other n/a engines way better than that which you could throw in there. i understand your dilemma though

[AKADriver]

You don't need VTC or a higher redline when you have 2389cc. No replacement...

[atom]

I've seen places like Venus ocassionally have N/A SR's but for what they were charging the price differential didn't seem worth it.......

I wonder how much a Neo Straight 6 clip costs.....

[HaLo]

I know, I just really don't like the KA feel of the Engine.. I hated mine at the end..

I don't want to go too custom... it'll get too expensive too quickly.. I might go around the local "JDM Scrap Yards" tomorrow to see what they have..

Anyways.... If you guys have any other suggestions, I am opened to them.

[wootwoot]

wankel could be done for not to much =)

[HaLo]

hello unreliability.

not very practical for Auto-X... won't be legal in Street mod with another manufacturer's engine.

[wootwoot]

pft, wankels are completly reliable and i find that statement to be one of those things that never dies because people dont understand them. vq30 could be interesting and work fine, with a little work you can make that sr20 into an sr24 with highcompression and itb's. there are some crazy ass japanese engines that you can find with some searching around, go for it. just how much power are you looking for? thats the main thing.

[HaLo]

I like wankels... I just don't trust them for my everyday racing car.

Honestly, I would be happy with 200whp, without LAG... but it's pretty expensive on a NA car

[wootwoot]

i think you could get what you want out of a mildly tuned vq30de, it seems like it'd be pushing it extremly hard on a sr20de

[wootwoot]

eh, f it. just go crazy and drop an s2000 drivetrain or rotary in there. thats the only way where i can see the power made will be worth it. otherwise to much weight for the power and things of that sort. a n/a rotary is extremly reliable. hell, the turbo versions are as long as they are tuned by someone who isnt incompetent.

[HaLo]

S2000 drivetrain would be SICK... too bad it's so expensive and a lot of custom work is involved..

Now Tomei has been know to pull 260 ps out of a crazy tuned s14 sr20de so anything is possible.

[atom]

The 250PS was from a S13 SR20DE IIRC.

http://www.tweakit.net/shop/product_...roducts_id=120

it comes with TB size up to 52mm. 1100 AUD is only 775 USD.

[brianglawson]

www.jgycustoms.com i bought my sr20t there great shop and i think they will ship, the actually put an s14 srde in a model A ford once

[HaLo]

True!!!
It was from a HIGHLY tuned S13-DE.. hmmm makes you think.

[HaLo]

hmmm very interesting..,a bit on the expensive side, since no ecu or maf are included.

[proj240sx]

vtc isnt all bad like people make it seem. really unless your going to some crazy ass cams, vtc is your friend. anyway halo im in pretty much the same situation. crapped out s14 sr, no job, full time college crap, and it makes me think about making something N/A. but then i slap myself and say no. yeh it would be fun to have a sr20de, but save your sr20det, take your time rebuilding it with good stuff, and put it back in. and no im not hating on DEs, i just like DETs more.

[HaLo]

at 5000$ cdn rebuild cost, might as well forget it.

[hurleyboi514]

if you get out, i want your wheels and tires! i need more for autox... either way, keep racing, it doesnt matter what you drive (to an extent).

[HaLo]

I'll keep racing N/A or Turbo....
I just want my car back by spring... and the latter seems quite hard considering the cost of it...

[Steeles]

halo if you go this route you MUST get those freaking ITBs for the thing off of tweakit.net!!!! soooo sick

[cali240sxdrifter]

i'd say keep on track on looking for a SR20DE, just be patient. it will come and will be well worth the wait. That and you can save money while on the wait.



they are pretty sick thou =D
