Hey guys, i recently helped my buddy put in a det in his sentra. It went in farily easy and so i bought a 240. i am on the verge of buying a black top. My ?'s are, i know he can go to the store and pretty much get wat ever he needs for his motor, would i have that same option?? And his motor went in farily easy, easier than expected, I've heard RWD det's are eaiser to install, wat do you guys thnk?? Any info would be appreciated, thanks alot!!

Dustin

 

RWD = motor straight with the car
FWD = motor side to side
So RWD would be easier. If your wanting a Sr, id go for a Silvia front end clip, that way if you need anyhting off of it you can get it. Plus you can part out the rest of the car and make some good money. Welcome to the forums btw.

 

how much are a front clip and i knew about the rwd straight in stufff, but thanks for responding.

 

welcome. swap should be relatively straight forward, and there's a thread running around here with info on what JDM components have off-the-shelf USDM counterparts.

 

not always, in the 2nd gen acura legends, the v6 was mounted like ours, but was still fwd.

Yeah, im a bit nit picky right now lol

 

How the hell does that work? Welcome by the way

 

the same as a vr-4 tt. it's mounted all weird.

 

ever see a fwd dragster with that configuration? Its got a weird tranny.

 

So the tranny is like...

Front of car
Wheel+Wheel
Firewall


With the "+" being the tranny?

 

something along those lines

this is what the engine bay looks like, this one looks really good
