Very nice response Ryan. I am impressed that you actually took
the
time out to say all that! Unfortunately, I have changed my plans
as
far as getting a front clip goes. Instead, i am just going to
purchase a Blue Bird SR20DET and get all the necessary SR20
conversion components separately. I understand that this is more
time
consuming, but I did some calculations, and it looks like it will
be
cheaper in the long run. And I spoke with a local shop that has
done
the GA16DE -> SR20DET swap before. They said that I wouldn't be
able
to use the GTi-R ECU, wiring harness, starter, MAF sensor and
some
other significant parts as I originally thought i would be able
to.
You said that the GA16 -> SR20 swap is well documented but i
could
not find any sources. Do you (or anyone else reading this) know
of
any?
In addition, I don't have ABS or rear discs, but i would like to
upgrade to 4 slotted and cross-drilled discs. How hard is this
brake
conversion for a 200SX that is not already equipped with rear
discs? Any sources of information regarding this conversion would
be
greatly appreciated as well.
I won't be able to hook you up with webspace, but i would be more
than interested in seeing the footage, photos, and documents that
you produce as a result of this swap. Keep us informed as to how
it's going and any problems you encounter. If you never find any
webspace i might even be willing to pay you for a copy of the
results. :-D
