yes i know several guys with SR20DETs in their cars, but all of them are S13 240s. id rather have a torqe monster GN motor in there than the high reving 2 liter turbo. to get one of those engines your looking at about 3 grand, since they have to be shipped from Japan. Then only if your lucky do you get most of the wiring harness, the computer, and other small parts on the engine. These things are sold as front clips, and most have crap already removed from em. Ive worked with a SR20DET install in a 90 240SX and i must say that if im gonna do that much work, id rather go with a GN engine.
Also, upgrade parts for those are EXTREMELY expensive too. nowhere near what the cost to modify a GN motor is. bigger turbo??? 1000 bucks. intercooler??? 1300 bucks. injectors are expensive, ECU is like another 600 bucks. then you gotta buy a 400 dollar APEXi multichecker and really expensive piggyback computer setup to tune with, even things like a airfilter/intake is over a hundred bucks. then you gotta buy setups to trick the computer to eliminate the boost cut, then you gotta get a bigger MAF cause those are small as crap. I know plenty of people with em, but they cost way to much to start with, and cost way to much to modify to try and fit in the budget we have set. Thanks for the thoughts though
