nxFreak 06-18-2002, 05:18 AM My car is getting pretty high in the mileage dept but i definitely don't want to get rid of it....how hard is it to aquire an sr20det that can take it's place and does it fit right or do i need to do a lot of stuff to make it work? im definitely no expert so i thought i might ask you people :) Scott jokergrin 06-18-2002, 09:18 AM As far as I know, the sr20det will bolt right in...there are a few things you have to change, like the wiring harness and ecu...I'm sure there's other stuff. A reasonable price for the WHOLE swap including emergency parts and everything when it's all said and done is 2500 or so. That's just what I've found out with talking to people though...no first hand experience...YET!! NXturbo 06-18-2002, 07:17 PM nxFreak, this should give you an idea: http://www.se-r.net/engine/swap/index.html Man I wish I had that article back when I helped do a swap ;-) nxFreak 06-18-2002, 11:18 PM so nxTurbo, how much better does the car perform? i guess i need to save quite a bit of money.... also, where would i get one? i saw some on ebay that are used with the included ECU for around 1600-1800 plus shipping..... also, i live in san diego, right next to JWT's shop...i guess ill probably see what he can do for me ;) hooligan NX2000 06-19-2002, 03:37 AM this is kind of off topic but i was just wondering how many miles you guys think is enough till its time to swap in another engine? i wouldnt be doing this for a long time if i ever did it but i'd probably wanna put a sr20ve in..

I've only got a T28 but roasting tires through first and second gear is a hoot. Ask a local DET for a ride, you will be sold. It is $$$$ but it consider it will be fast and cheaper than a new car. >also, where would i get one? i saw some on ebay >that are used with the included ECU for around >1600-1800 plus shipping..... Try www.soko.com or www.kwcengine.com >also, i live in san diego, right next to JWT's >shop...i guess ill probably see what he can do >for me They are experts...

If taken care of these engines last a long time. 200k+ miles. As long as the car is running strong you are good, doesn't really matter what miles. My friend cracked open a 150k mi engine and the cylinder walls still had hatch marks on em! Keep an eye on your oil level, starvation is what does them in. nxFreak 06-19-2002, 11:13 PM thanks NxTurbo... so what's your 0-60 time anyway? :) NXturbo 06-21-2002, 08:42 AM nxFreak wrote: >so what's your 0-60 time anyway? I haven't done any measuring yet so I'll just say 0-60 is in the 5 second range and 1/4 is in the 13s ;) hooligan NX2000 06-21-2002, 08:13 PM thanks NXturbo nxgoody2000 06-25-2002, 04:11 AM hay nx freak if you have any questions about turboing your nx, just drop me a email at goody619@yahoo.com, and i will try to answer any questions you have. or you can just give me a ring. i live right here in SD too. my nx is turboed. and it has around 142,000 miles on it. it is still running great. and there is a big difference from driving a n/a to a turbo car. :D djisnx2000 06-30-2002, 07:49 PM http://www.photomania.com/~nx2000/ LONEWOLF 07-02-2002, 06:08 AM do any of you turbo nx guys have ac? | ||
