SR20DET on a 1971 240Z

[matopete]

Hey I was just wondering if anybody has ever put a SR20DET in a 240Z I am a very big fan of 240SX and I own one I want to buy a 240Z and I was wondering if I could put my SR20DET so i could keep it and put back the old stock on the 240SX and sell the 240SX

Um.. Welcome to Classiczcars.com but honestly.. please do a SEARCH for this topic...

it's been covered numerous times and there is a member in the galleries who has one installed in his Z.

Sorry about that , I found some information shortly after I did the post.

I found an SR20DET article but that is just a front end conversion

Try www.hybridz.org they have some guys who have tried all sorts of conversions.

This site has a video of the guy who is doing the setup. Very clean looking Z. WWW.SR240Z.COM

Cool I have been doing a lot of researching online and I have found a few guys in Houston who claim to have done it, so I am going to meet with some of them, I will keep you guys updated on it as I go along my project.

I do not own a Z right now but I am planning to buy one, maybe I'll just go ahead and go the classical way of dropping the 280Z engine on a 240Z

It seems almost like a dishonor to put an SR20 in a Z. Don't get me wrong the SR is a beautiful engine. But IMO it simply does not have the sound I would normally associate with a Z. Gimme a 6 or an 8 NA or FI any day over a 4.

I don't like it either but I have a friend who has a shop in Los Angeles and they have done them. They're fairly cheap to do since he gets the whole front clip for $1500. I, personally, would rather see the SR20DET in a 510 or 521-620-720 etc. Spmetjhing that you would expect to see a 4 banger in. I once thought of putting one in my 320. Talk about a 'death machine!' :eek:

that www.sr240z.com is my site and mine and my dads car. well at least were sharing the silver one with the SR and the orange L28etz is my daily driver. if you have any questions email me or find me on AIM.

Hi AV 240z I remember you posting about your stolen Z on Zdriver a couple of years back did you ever get her back?

I like the way the Silver Z is turning out looks wise have you put Watanabe's on it? They look really good whatever they are. Your daily driver looks like fun seems you and your dad are both Z aholics.

Cheers.

Gavin.

PS: Site design is coming along 2.
