Sr20 engine into cefiro?

[Jiri Styles]

hey guys im wondering what are the benifits about the sr into a cefiro?
how hard is it and any major things to look about for, and if theres any guides or things like that, share your thoughts ty :D

Benefit - cops wont pull you over, because they will think you are a small diesel truck.

Advantage is low weight in the business end and a torquey little engine
I just used side to side S13/180sx engine front Xmember arms hub axle assembly and rack, I can't racall which tailshaft I used was a Nissan OEM item was 5 years ago but I did put a few images in here http://mayhem.throwinghandles.com/index.php?level=album&id=22
I recall the only customising was an AC pipe and the ECU wiring

Butters is doing his S15 SR Cefiro atm he shoudl be able to add

[mitchy]

I beleive the SRs sit further back on the firewall and will give you better balance/weight transfer over the RB20.

Full SR20DET -> A31 build, HERE:

+1 more useless advantage,
You'll be able to use any S13 strut brace and not have to worry about clearing the RB.

thanks alot man thats alota help :D

[ENEMIE]

its easy ive done it a couple of times and they handle mint

[coucheee]

Will fuel consumption be any better going from RB to SR?

Hope you decide to do it Jiri gonna be sweet if you do.

[Marti]

depends how you drive, in theory it wont change because a cefiro is a s13 with 4doors

[coucheee]

but rb has 6 cylinders as apposed to 4 does this have anything to do with consumption?

[Nic_A31]

Shouldn't really. Stock vs stock the sr will chew less.
Sr is a common ceffy swap in japan because it reduces their taxes\rego costs under their emmision laws.
