sr20VE
Looking through some old articles on the 99 g20 I read that it was projected that the 2000-2002 g20's would have an sr20ve engine in it? Now i know that didnt happen but does any one know if this engine exsits becuase it said it has 190 horses in it and that would sound nice under the hood of my G.

Yup there was a version of the Primera in Japan sold with the SR20VE and each one came with a CVT tranny.
You can swap one in with an ECU swap from JWT. They should have the detail on installing one. Also www.gonzonx.com has some info on swaping a SR20VE into an NX2000. |

You can purchase an SR20VE from SR20Development. They usually have 1 or 2 on hand (they did about 2 weeks ago, so I heard) They know alot about swapping and have a great reputation.
Since you have a 2002 your ECU cant be reprogrammed by JWT (darn 2000+ Nissans). But you have 2 options. 1) You'll have to use a reprogrammed 95-97 ECU from an SE-R and rewire every wire to the ECU. 2) Hopefully you can find a complete VE with the ECU and wiring harness. Call Chris @ SR20Development. I believe the number is 619-69-TURBO. He'll have all your answers and he's a really nice guy.  |

Yea, the VE has a bit more hp.......one of the reasons, i believe, is that it has Variable Valve technology, something like VTEC........

I think last I heard the VE was going for $2500 w/ ECU and harness. They're a little easier to come by now, but no where near as easy as the DET's. I believe the VE's have only been out since 99?

A FWD manual tranny from a US car should just bolt right up. I don't think the block size is different, just the head, and some oil passages between the block and head changed locations. Everything else is pretty similar.

Couple o' months ago Grunter put me onto a VE only 1 hour drive from me (NZ). Came out of a '99 wagon done 10,000km and has everything including MAF, harness and ECU. Wrecker (Junkyard?) wanted NZ$1850 for it (approx. US$800). There is another thread mentioning it - search on Grunter (username) and SR20VE.
Depending what you can get them for against shipping costs, let me know if you want me to check if they still have it.

Since we are on the topic, do you guys think the VE head onto a FWD de/det would work?
If so, about how much for the head? |

There has been some discussion on the se-r mailing list about VE head onto DE engine but I don't think anyone has actually tried it yet. As mentioned above, some oil passages don't line up but that is solvable.
You'd need some way of switching the cams as well. JWT has done some work in this area with a turbocharged VE, and found that even in turbocharged form that the stock switching worked best. Buying the 'head only' may be a problem, since anyone with a good complete VE engine would probably want to keep it complete.

looking into a SR20VE
T4,
There is someone in miami that with shipping he will get you a SR20VE for i think like 2300 or so. I think his name is Anres Mikkas or something like that, he is on the SR20DE Forum. In any case i'm wanting to put one in my car desperately but i think i should wait for a more available SR20VE(T). What do you all think? Or should i get a SR20VE and make it a VE(T). Moses
