Nissan SR20 Engine
Hi all, I picked up one of these engines just because it was cheap. Will this be a suitable candidate for a 808 conversion? I don’t have any plans for it yet but read that these engines will take up to 450hp in stock form so a turbo is definitely the go. Maybe put it into an old rear wheel drive chassis like a 180b coupe or similar. Cheers

I’m am thinking that I can run a Camira loom, 808, custom trigger wheel, Delco DIS and custom inlet manifold with VN throttle body.

No matter what the question is, the answer is always more horsepower!

Thanks for the replies and confirmation. Cheers
I pressure tested the cylinders and there was no leak down so it’s a good starting point.
