Just to follow up....

SR20DE = 139kg

my car already has a complete running L series conversion (been driving it for a bit over a year now), 200b struts with r32 brakes r31 diff with r32 brakes, bigger trans tunnel for the L series

so buying a whole car wouldnt really help me out

Z and l20 blocks are the same only difference is in the heads im using l20 rods,pistons as well as water and oil pumps on mine

just do a z conversion. I paid of memory $2000 for a bluebird trx which had the z18t in it with 5 speed and microtech . which i also got use the front end which is in my 1200. buys like that have got to be still out there.

Quote:

thats what i wanted to hear, although the factory efi on the Z would be cool i think i can live without it

dont really have the money to spend on ready made setups....and making one wont cost me that much

yeh go the Z.

I've got the sheet of weights at work - but from memory the SR20DE is about 15-20kg lighter than the DET....similar to the difference between the CA18DET & DE

Now if someone wanted to start a wiki page about nissan engine weights....this would be a good start

any one got the weight of a sr20 de?

Nope zs basically same bottom end as l with zed pistons apparantelly having more of a dish to drop cr. Z pistons no longer avaliable everyone just uses l18 no probs. What sort of l setup you planning i have had tonns of boosted l experience if ya want info or just buy my setup haha. L heads flow heaps more than z heads too and easy parts

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's short block (including manifolds) as the CA18DE = 113kg.
