Need Sr20det Motor

[ImportBuilder]

Obviosly, I need an SR20 motor. I just got a Datsun 510 from Revell and want an SR20 in it. Does anyone know where I can get one? Do any of Revell's have SR20's? What about ordering the parts to make the motor from Tamiya or Fujimi? I really want this motor, but I don't know how/where to get. Any help would be really great. Thx in advance.

There are no SR20 motors in 1/24 or 1/25 (don't know about any other) scale in existence, or at least available for sale.

I am planning on building one one day, but it's a very long term project. But for now you're out of luck.

Two Webbers were the hot set-up on 510's back in the day (early 70's).
You could use the Revell 240Z motor or even the 300Z v6 from Tamiya...
Maybe cut the 240 motor down to a 4...
Just day dreaming...

psst... forget the import power. Try a 350 small block, or a 454 big block in a 510

hey CamaroSSboy, my 1:1 car is a 1966 Impala SS Convertible with a 327. I want the original 396, but my dad traded it a LONG time ago. So, I'm not against big block power, but I dont want to "Cross-Breed" cars. Domestics with domestic motors, and Imports with import motors. but, i'll pay for an SR20DET if someone is planning making one soon. Thx for your help anyway, guys.

Get hold of a rotary engine out an Tamiya RX7 kit and drop it in there, the rotary was a common upgrade on the 510.......lotsa get up and go then

Buy a Revell integra and custom fabricate the engine into an SR20.

Thats really all I can say.

Ummm, hate to break it to you but the 510 engine IS a cutdown L series. The four in the 510 is based on the same architecture as the six in the Z cars. Also, the Revell 510 comes with a sweet pair of Weber DCOE sidedraft carbs and is based on the tooling they did to replicate the infamous BRE #46 Datsun 510 that owned the SCCA Trans-Am under 2.5L class back in the late 60's-early 70's.

I should know. I'm JMA!!!! (John Morton Army: superfans of the BRE 240Z and 510. There's over 10,000 of us)

Ummmm...

That's why I made that suggestion!

I've owned both a 510 and a 240z...

Hey, XspudX, how would I make a turbo system to put on a the Revell 'Teg motor? What cheap kits have a turbo?

just order a skyline and use its motor the only difference is twin turbo and .6 liters of displacement with less HP.
