DET manifolds will fit a VE, but the VE has slightly larger ports than other SR's, so the fit may not be great.

Google tells me that Jahra is in Kuwait, correct me if that's wrong, but, regardless, I don't know where you'd get a VE or VET in your part of the world. You could try contacting some US or Japanese companies - Soko (soko.com) and tigerjapanese.com are two such US companies - but they may not ship half way around the world, and even if they do it will be very expensive.

Additionally, the Tiida is equivalent to our Versa, which has never had an SR, and, therefore, you're going to need to fabricate custom motor mounts and splice together wiring harnesses to make an SR fit and run. It will be a huge task. Doable, but difficult and expensive.

I apologize for the slow response.

I'd use the ECU that came with the SR20VE, then use a standalone fuel management system to correct, or at least a good piggyback. Something like Greddy's E-Manage should do the trick.

Be careful though, the non-turbo VE has a very high compression ratio. You'll want lower compression pistons with that, or after much boost you'll blow the whole thing up. Optimally, you could find a factory VET, which would have to come out of a Nissan X-Trail from Australia or New Zealand (they may have had them in Japan too, I don't remember off-hand).

Go with whatever you want, those were just examples. I haven't used a standalone system, so if you know someone who has, probably better to consult them on that one.

Your posts seemed to indicate that you were doing a VE+T setup.

Use the VE's ECU, I wouldn't bother with any additional management until you've modded it extensively, and even then, a piggyback will be fine unless you've replaced a bunch of internals.
