S13 SR20DET Build Thread 400whp goal

[tabasco122]

So october 2nd is when im taking the car in. Buddy of mine is going to tow it with his car trailer. It runs and drives fine, but i would rather tow it until i can go over everything. Going to have a bbq afterwards, pictures fo sho. Some Z guys are coming also, should have a few nice 300's

Im hoping z32s... if so take pics

Niiceee. I had a 240 for a while and wanted to drop in an sr25. Never did though. These cars are pretty sick. I raced an s13 running 18lbs of boost, and once he hit boost, he fucking flew. Got squirrelly shifting too.

Definitely in for pictures

Im glad to see other people are into the 240's. I have one in the garage but waiting to do a vg30dett swap in the car. Since i go to school and in Nov. im going to Mex to visit family i havent really had time to save for the car. I have bought a j30 vlsd and swapped out the back cover to make it fit.

Sorry for thread jack but i already want my 240 up and running. Need to feel boost of my own. O.O

yes, z32's. i actually sold mine to pay for the 240. the guy who bought it should be coming to the bbq, although i dunno if hes bringing the z or the lightning.

heres pics of my z right before i sold it 2 weeks ago. Its not perfect, but its better than most. 1990 NA with 168k

The good ole 1990 with the nose panel without the Nissan "Hamburger" Badge.

Atzec red... I would have rather have had the 300zx. 240s are cool and great and all but the z32 is more refined. Plus you could have thrown a RB25/26 in that slut.

ralbe- Why do you want to throw a VG30DETT in there? I remember how cramped my engine bay was with my NA Z32. I think the only good thing a VG is good for is going 200-300k miles. :P

Well i found this website where someone did a swap into the 240 and let me say they almost look identical. Space wise. All you have to do is cut up the front subframe, custom make some motor mount brackets, swap over to a j30 oil pan, relocate oil filter and figure out a way how to modify the downpipe so it wont hit the steering column.
Plus the VG will be able to give a little more power in stock form against the sr. Plus is something way different, everyone does rbs, sr, ka-t and ls swaps.
