Re: Engine Types?

also, one more thing, does the name stand for anything? i know the tt stands for twin-turbo (or i think i do) and i guess the 30 stands for 3.0L engine size?

Re: Engine Types?

Thats why you have things like SR20DET(A common engine for the 240sx, and a engine that was stock in japan?)... 2.0 liter, then everything else cept second turbo.
