Engine Swap

i think i may (MAY) get close to to 200rwkw with my sr20det!

and its very close to stock. biggest upgrades are cams and s14 t28.

cost around 30k i think.

Sorry Veecee ...

You just dont have the fuel to make 200RWkw , You have about enough to make 190 FWkw

PFB - just my 2c worth, I am busy with a 7mgte conversion, and I would have loved to still have the stock motor. It would have been back in there a long time ago!!!

I would have rebuild that stock motor with all the money and time I have spend on this conversion already. And would have a lot less grey hair.

If all the time and effort is put into that same stock motor you would end up, with one decent motor capable of 200kw plus, you guys loose track of time spend to plan these conversions which are not suppose to be, trail and error costing money, the teething problems etc. The 20c nut here and the R5 bolt there, a modified water pipe a oil feed that to short etc etc etc... Those conversions is a NEVER ENDING STORY.

And it's just never a straight fit !!! Maybe if you have done the same conversion 10 times and you know what you're doing. But if its your first time you will pay your school fees.

If it was that easy everyone would be running 250 - 300 kw 6cyl turbo motors not true???

Not trying to upset anyone, but just a little of the truth I face daily.

aaah - dammit!

thought i might be able to get there!

my point was that RBSX said you cant get 200rwkw out of an sr20det for less than 30k?

i think you can do it for around 15k-20k, but then again i'm not sure that things like the clutch will handle that much power! so ya - other things WILL end up costing!
