Help!! avenir sr20det swap into my GA Sentra GXE... HELP HELP HELP!!

[NismoChick97]

:

I just keep getting more and more negative feedback about this swap. I got a silver top sr20det out of an avenir awd. It was auto and mine is manual. I switched out the transmission, flywheel, pressure plate and put on a manual out of a 200sx ser. I know i CAN use the ecu as-is, but its going to throw codes and most likely kill horsepower. So Im at a loss there? Change it out and use a JWT?

And the wiring harness has me all bass ackwards!! Does AnYONE have any info. on how to wire this into my car? Wiring diagram.. anything?

What about parts? Is it like pulling teeth to buy parts for this engine? (dont wanna sound dumb), but do I just look for any sr20det part when it comes to that time? (alternator, basic internal parts, etc.)

The place who sold it to me (JDM addiction here in Ocala) insists this CAN be done and I CAN use the same wiring harness...: :

Can anyone help me please? Im at witts end...

Try asking http://www.heavythrottle.com They should have the answers you need. Nice B14, not a fan of the wheels though.

I know!!! lol... Im replacing them.. I've had those rims forever.. before I did all of my work to the car. Im looking for some motegi's right now.

Thanks for the info.!!

The GA16 harness will not work with an SR. There is a guide to going from GA->SR as a sticky near the top of the Sentra Gen page. Also, do you mean the stock GA ECU or the stock Avenir ECU? The car definitely won't run with a GA ECU.

Look for FWD SR20DET parts and avoid GTi-R - specific parts (so look for Bluebird/Avenir by whatever you're looking at) and you'll be good.

17" or 18" DP10... I want a carbon fiber center cap. :-) I really dont like the one's I have on there anymore... but I threw out my stocks.. so, they are there until I find my new ones... I found the exact one's at a Tire Kingdom here, so I should have them soon!!!

The Avenir ECU.. it was out of an Auto and mine is Manual.. they said I could use it.. just have it tuned.... I am just going to replace the Avenir wiring harness with the SR20DE one... Hopefully, I can get this going!!!

TK huh.....If you lived here in Oh, I could probably get you a deal on those wheels. I work for NTB(owned by TK)

Hmm... wait, so you're running an Avenir harness? I don't see how it would have plugged up with your USDM car...

I don't know where you'll get tuning for an Avenir ECU. You may have to look for a B14 USDM SR ECU and send it to JWT.

Oh no.. I cannot use the harness...
