No need to cut anything. If you get the right transmission it will fit into the unmodified tunnel. See SR Transmissions

However if you use the long-tail S13 gearbox you'll have to cut an opening for the shifter further back

Thanks for all the help guys!!
To fit the SR20 I don't need to cut anything right? I just need to cut the transmission tunel to fit the gearbox right?
Thanks once again!

Maddat is your best source of 1200 after market parts there is. They can supply you with everything for your sr20 installation. They can also modify s13 irs rearends to the correct track for a 1200. There front end suspension / coil overs are second to none.

What about the rear axle/diff? That won't handle all the power right? How can I upgrade it?
The stock Datsun 1200 rear axle assembly won't handle the torque output of an SR20 engine. There have been a few S13/S14 IRS swaps into 1200, but that is the hard way to do it

Most fit a strong live axle, like the 1200 axle but bigger. SR20DET makes 202 to 220 ft lbs of torque from the factory, so you'll need a Rear Axle that can handle it. The H165 can handle this. See B120 axle swap

SR20DET whemn modified can easily make 400 ft lbs. For this you'll want an extra big Rear Axle like the Ford 8.8 swap or one of the larger Toyota Hilux rear axles. A popular swap in Australia is using the strong AUS-built R31 Skyline unit

you'd run into all the same problems. The SR is a long tall block, so it takes up as much room, and when pushing 350 HP has all the same cooling issues. Some 240SX guys like the SR20, after they spend $5,000 to $10,000 modifying the SR it will then make power than the KA24DE (via high-RPMs)

I often wonder if the SR20DE would have been a better choice over the KA24DE.
