The Nissan SR20DET is probably by far one of the most popular motor swaps in the automotive industry. It originated and first shown in the Nissan Bluebird in October 1989 and the produced in the Nissan Pulsar GTI-R. The Nissan Silvia and the Nissan 180sx, which are both originators of the Nissan 240sx, were the first to produce the car in the rear wheel drive fashion. The Nissan Silvia was the longest running production vehicle to have the SR20DET. The S14 and the S15 models though had bigger turbos then the S13. The SR20DET is the identity number of the motor. SR stands for the engine model, 20 stands for the 2.0 liter displacement, D stands for the double overhead camshaft, E stands for electronic fuel injection, and T stands for turbocharged. There are many types of different SR20DET motors described as the the Black top or Red top which basically was just the valve cover pinted those colors but there are different types of Red tops and Black tops that have different size turbos and differrent adjustments done to the motor internally. For example, the most popular and highly craved for SR20DET motor is the one produced for the S15 which is the Japanese Nissan 240sx, also known as the Nissan Silvia from 1999 to 2002. They came with Variable Vavle Time on both camshafts, a 6 speed manual transmission and a Garrett journal bearing T28 turbo for the European and Australian versions and the Garrett ball bearing T28 for the Japanese motors which produced 245 horsepower and 274 foot-pounds of torque. The SR20DET swap is a very easy process except for the wiring which involves much work unless you plan on having the ECU and harness shipped over as well with the SR20DET motor and 6 speed transmission. Here I found a link where all the wiring and what is all needed to do the SR20DET swap.
