Re: Engine Swap Help

You should be able to swap to the SR20, but I think there's a major difference between the 1.8's and the SE-Rs preventing you from swapping to the 2.5 and 3.5 motors with ease. For any swap you are considering you will need at LEAST the following:

Motor
Tranny
ECU
Motor mounts
wiring harness
front axles
and most likely much more.

Your NUTS will feel teh steel toe
Teh steel toe that has been in teh snow
I will rip off yuor pants and kick yuo in teh nuts
My steel toe will stick to yuor nuts
And I will swing yuo around by yuor nuts as I do a Hurricane kick

1.8 crossmember is different preventing the qr25 or vq35 swap, not to say you couldnt do some fabbing but youd be pioneering your own swap, no help from anyone

Yes, the SR20 is what I was talking about in post #2.

Re: Engine Swap Help

Re: Engine Swap Help

there isnt one, you have to call up protech and have them fab a manifold for teh qg18, they will know what youre talking about...... then peice together some intercooler piping and source an intercooler and turbo, BOV, wastegate ect.....it will end up cheaper than a kit
