SR20DET FB in Georgia

Post by Meifert83 »

Well, it will be an SR20DET FB once the swap is complete. A few people have called crazy but it will be one hell of a thing to handle once it's done.

I've seen a few SR swapped FBs, It seems like a relatively straight forward conversion in terms of S13s being a very similar layout up front.

That's why I picked that swap. Plus parts are everywhere unlike standard FB parts. I am using the rear end from a 95 V6 Mustang to get 5 lugs and discs.

Well, it costs more to build a 12A for 300 hp than swapping in an engine that makes that with only a few small items and a tune

Nissan 2 liter turbo 4 cylinder. Mine just made 375 on the engine dyno with only minor bolt ons and cams. The 300 rwhp goal I set is easily within reach and its fairly lightweight for a 4 cylinder (297 pounds without power steering)
