Car: 1995 Nissan D21 Hardbody Truck

Post

Hello, I'm a newbie to this site but a die hard nissanaholic like the rest of ya!! I'm looking into an engine swap for my '95 D21 hardbody. I've seen plenty of S13 SR20DET's and KA24det swaps but I'm wanting different. Does anybody have any info on the VG33 supercharged engine? I know it came in the fronteirs but want to know if it would go in a D21? VG30 was the six banger in the D21 trucks but would the VG33 bolt the same way? I have not seen this done yet and I'm eager to get started. The only thing holding me back is information!!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

the vg30 and 33 mount the same. you would need the computer controls and harness. but it really isnt worth it as you could put a vg30 in the truck and turbo it and be much happier. the supercharger does not supply much boost.
