The motors maybe the same as the name goes. But you can't use a RWD sr20 block for your transverse purposes. Just get the motor that you need. Alot more simple and alot less headache. The motors may look the same at brief glance, but there are alot of things that don't interchange on the two.

Email sent as well.

Internally, as far as pistons and such, I think you'd be fine. Got some RWD stuff laying around and a FWD car?

Fits in '91-'01 Sentras and the NX2000, I think that's it.

A FWD SR engine will also fit in a G20. Can't forget the G....leather luxury.
