SR20 swap into anything ?

Postby X2 » March 4th, 2017, 11:25 am

I know it's a common retort that when an engine goes in pretty much any car with a hard to buy part, people say swap in an SR. But all jokes aside... with proper parts and fabrication, how well is this swap accepted into non nissan vehicles (peugot, bmw, renault, Mitsubishi, etc...) I know some cars would require much more fabrication than others and some may have wiring nightmares, but I'm interested in hearing what the general up and downsides of seriously contemplating this swap into a non nissan chassis would look like.

Operation of gauges, general wiring, integration with existing car ecu for automatics, etc...

Wiring is normally the messed up part instrument clusters and stuff.

unless it's really exotic, it has been done before and could mostly be answered by google.

if the british of all people could cut a v8 in half to make a slant four, i trust you could pioneer the cutting of an SR to give you a 6 in line. :lol:
