prep for sr swap

[dlslide]

sup guys, this is my first time posting, i have an 89 coupe with an automatic and would like an sr/5-speed swap and would like to know what i can do to prepare for the swap as far as parts to remove or parts i should put on. Thnaks for the info.

do the norm.....oil pan, water pump, t-stat. chains if you have the skill. head gasket if you're really bored...

you are swapping the sr depending on the condition you should do certian things.

but are you talking about preparing the engine bay? or the sr motor? im really confused what you want to know.

either way if you search there are lots of threads about little things you should go ahead and do prior to swapping the motor

You don't need the brake lines, you need the DOHC power steering lines and resevoir. You will need all of the clutch parts as well, which includes cutting a hole in the fire wall for the CMS.

Replace the Rear and Front main seal. Also, replace the gasket between the turbo manifold and turbo, that gasket is known to have problems, and it is a PITA to replace it when the car. I found this out the hard way on my 55k mi SR.

the front and rear main seal..can we use it from the nissan sentra ser? or does it has to be a sr20det seals

[Whiplash Willy]

Why risk it? You can order the seals for your engine off http://www.courtesyparts.com/

Just do a search on sr20det.
