nice, what turbo do u plan on useing? my friend has a 240 with a silvia front, they look pretty good, his is ka turbo with safc hack and ----, t3, and ---- running 10psi daily, he made his own manifold from mcmaster piping, just a log, but it works good. he wants to run mega squirt soon. u should be fine with your setup, keep us posted with pics of it as u get ready to turbo and what not, i would tell u i could make a manifold for a 240, but i havent tryed one yet llol, mostly hondas, and a few dsm's. i dont like the ka flange pattern, they should touch not be all induvidual like that.

Are you running DE-T or E-T? I just don't want to spend the time on the sohc motor that I have now. I wanted to swap my motor 5 years ago when it was not all that common, but money prevented it. Other, more important things prevented it for quite some time and now I have the opportunity to do it and I was considering going RB25DE-T, but I want something that I can easily source parts for and from what I have seen and read, the SR can provide some serious power and most of all fun!! The main thing that really has to happen for me to enjoy the damn car is that I have to get rid of the automatic trans, it's killing me. I would much rather drive my underpowered Civic with a 4spd or my 5 spd Ranger than the auto 240. I catch hell from my friends on a regular basis because I bent a wheel on the car over a year ago and have not replaced or driven it (like twice) since. Well, that is all gonna change soon I hope. The motor set should be shipping to me the first week or so of August, just gotta find some new shoes and get it all put together

man E-T's can handle some power as well... check out ka-t.org seriously... and converting it to stick is so easy... jus do the petal n ---- first then tackle the conversion after so u dont have to worry bout the pedal. we got it all done in 1 day. and well worth it. to bad my motor took a ---- so im jus gonna toss it and get a fresh ka with low miles for cheap.

The wheels are already in motion, the check for the SR has already been sent, I was told alot of my accessories (intercooler, rad, clutch, etc..) are shipping out tomorrow. It's something that I have wanted to do for a looong time, so I am doing it

I am not at all worried about swapping to the manual trans, just have to get a few more of the parts, hope the $300 parts car deal comes through. I will have to check out ka-t.org anyway, I always like to know what people are doing and how they are doing it.

damn that ---- looks hard. Nice work on the almost color matching paint job. It looks like a few more coats of clear and that chit would be flush

Nice, now you need to bring it up here someday... SoCal crew needs another BBQ.

that's what im talkin about... im down to drive up any time its hardly a drive up. we'll get it situated and try to get everyone. even if it aint turbo ill come up for one.

and its cool that u ordered ur sr20. the only thing you'll wonder about on the 5spd swap is makin sure u get the wiring done right, u needa take a plug off the tranny, cut and jump the 2 wire plug and plug it into the chassis harness... it's pretty simple cuz i had to do it my self. i hated my car when it was auto.

Yea, I have been wanting to do it for so long and have read what to do sooo many times, it is not even funny I think I should be able to handle any and all wiring changes, I have been doing mobile audio/video/security systems for about 12 years. I just want my damn stuff already :P

Fitment looks good! Time to get it painted :P KA-T... probably not the route I'd take personally but I've read about it being done pretty successfully. Good luck with it.
