sr20de in a 200sx se

[BLUEBIRD]

I want to swap a sr20de into a 200sx se are there any problems that i will run into or maybe even sme guildlines anyone can suggest? tahnk Oh it a 96 body style (both)thanks

umm I assume your 200Sx doesnt already have an SR20DE . It should be a direct bolt in since the car was offered with the engine. but you will need the engine harness and ecm to do it. alteration to the power steering will most likley be nessasary since the piping is different.

Should be direct bolt-in. The SE-R came with that motor, so there's no reason it isn't direct. Yeah, steering might be different, true, but anyway, nice upgrade! Good luck!

[BLUEBIRD]

what kind of alterations are gonna be needed for the powere steering?

[NISTECH]

hoses to the pump. you will have to replace them with the ser hoses. the routeing is different since the engine is closer to the right strut tower.

[BLUEBIRD]

is that all?

[NISTECH]

for the power steering,yes.

[BLUEBIRD]

what about the wiring harness does the entire thing have to be redone?

[NISTECH]

you get a harness from an SER sentra as well as the ECM.

[BLUEBIRD]

but does it connect rigght up to the se harness?

[NISTECH]

the entire engine harness will need to be swapped out with the sr cars engine harness. the points where it does connect MAY need some slight alterations for correct pin orientation in the connector. I have never done this type of swap my advise is based soley on my experiance working on both the vehicles.since I work on every thing nissan builds I cant remember the little details of what exactly is going to be different just the overall larger differentces. I know you will need the engine and trans mounts from the SR engine car,The power steering lines for the pump, the ECM,the main engine harness,beyond that is the more minor details that only someone who has done the swap will know,or some one who spends time taking these things apart for fun and putting them back together...lol. sorry I cant offer you a little more assistance in this.You are probably going to have to go into this with the larger items I have already told you about and figure the rest of the things needed as you run into them along the way.

[BLUEBIRD]

thanks you been a big help but if you know of anyone who would know this please let them know to help me out. I would just buy an ser and swap the motor that i have but i dont really have ser money. but i might just end up doin that anyway. thnks

The GA16DE A/C Compressor bolts to the SR20DE A/C BraketThe GA16DE Radiator works with SR20DE Radiator HosesThe GA16DE Harness works with custom wiring - Recommend getting the 95-97 Harness and 95-97 SR20DE ECU. If you cant... a 95-96 GA16DE ECU can be reporgrammed by JWT to work on the SR20DE.

A longer starter wire is needed if you dont get the harness as well.

I might be leaving some things out... if you can try to get a whole front clip of of a 95-98 200SX SE-R from a junk yard.
