tired of being shafted 2

[eastcoastchaos]

ok here it goes i dont want to get shafted on getting my next car so i decided to come to you brilliant people for help this kid i know wants to sell me his 91 2 door sentra XE the paint is allright its been painted from what the kid tells me it will be needing new axels because thats what some mechanics had told him and the clutch will need replacing the interior is pretty good withe the exception of the head liner well because there is none other than that its ok and he wants 1150 bucks for it so heres the question is this a good deal oh yeah and naturally ill be doing a swap of some sort

[eastcoastchaos]

and it has 170,000 miles on the weak GA16DE

[EZcheese15]

sounds like an *ok* deal. I'd try to talk him down a bit though. Little on the steep side I think.

Is that the year that they had the gun metal looking wheels?I saw a blue one for sale the othe day with said wheels and it was clean.The car lot wanted much more than the one you are looking at.I say go for it and throw a SR with a top mount in it!;)Whoops!The model I was talking about was the 94 body style.The 91 has a more flat rear w/ a trunk.I know of 2 91's in my area with the SR20DET in them!They should be at the March 8th meet!

Gunmetal? You sure you aren't thinking of the 99 Sentra SE-L?

Oh, and a top mount intercooler on an SR won't fit under the stock hood of a B13. You have to go front mount, or cut a hole in the hood.

[jEzTeR]

A cut out and WRX style hood scoop will fix the space problem.Thats what one of the guys in Louisville did.Im not 100% sure that its a SR though??Cory will know!Torry arnt the 99's the same body style as ours?Ill send you a \pic of the sentra that im talking about...I would post it but I cant re-size it.My PC is old and so is the software!:doh

[jEzTeR]

LOL Well I sent it to you then saw plain as day right on the window 99 Nissan Sentra! Good Call!:D

[EZcheese15]

Jez... the 99 is a B14. We have B15's. The 99 is the same chassis from 95-99.

[EZcheese15]

Oh, and by the way, the 99 SE-L came with the SR20DE.

[jEzTeR]

the B15 started in 2000 then.Wow a SR block.Thats cool as hell.Is it the same in the 99 G20?

Yup...

All P10 and P11 G20's are SR20DE.All 91-94 B13 Sentra SE-R's are SR20DE.All 91-93 B13 NX2000's are SR20DE.All 95-98 B14 200SX SE-R's are SR20DE.All 98-99 B14 Sentra SE's are SR20DE.The 99 B14 Sentra SE-L is SR20DE.All 00-01 B15 Sentra SE's are SR20DE.

So a full rebuild is not needed if you have a low milage SR20DE to add the turbo and run moderate boost?

Correct, SR20DE's are very strong stock. They use the same crank and rods as the DET. You can easily get 250+ hp to the ground on a turbo'd DE, pretty much regardless of age.

I saw a nice G20 the other day for sale.I might see how much and what shape that car is in.Id love to Turbo a SR20DE in a Lux/Sport compack form.Is there any proof of a SR20DET or RB26DET/RB26DETT AWD G20?:eek:

RB...impossible, or nearly anyway, for all practical purposes.

AWD SR20DET...possible. I'd imagine you can adapt the AWD drivetrain from the primera (same car as the G20). After all, the transversly mounted SR20DET is really made for the AWD car

[lessthanjakejohn]

Hehe, I can't wait for My g20 haha an small turbo would be nice on it

check g20.net out there are a alot of sr20det and turbo sr20de's

hmm sorry, I didn't know if you meant sr20det AWD or just rb awd

Anyway that first site is a nice swap to check out.

Actually I know of 4 B13s that have the BB DET dropped in it locally with the top mount and no clearance issues. They are the ones that Jezter was referring to.

Hmm...learn something every day. Didn't know it cleared!

[OneFastStanza]

I wouldn't have thought so either until I saw a few hehe.

I would still rather run a FMIC though.

[jEzTeR]

me too!I didnt like the look of the scooby hood scoop.Maby if it was glassed in or if the hood was made with an air scoop.

[nlzmo400r]

i smell a project coming along, i want the sr20 block, but looks im stuck with my car for the long haul
