So I have a Nissan Navara Ute with v6 vg30e engine and 5 speed manual gearbox.

I'm looking at fitting an sr20det engine using an adapter to my gearbox ( same as rb25det) .

Does anyone have an adapter or info on what's needed? 

I've emailed alpha Omega racing re their adapter. They are only prepared to sell me a full kit which is absurd to me as a lot of parts are to fit my style of gearbox into a different chassis therefore totally useless to me.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a company in USA or somewhere else that can just sell the bell housing adapter and associated clutch components etc? It would be a shame to buy something offshore die to their " business decisions". 

Any help appreciated thanks.

I don't have first hand knowledge because of my zero care for SR20s and less than zero care for VGs......but VG gearbox into SR20 engined S chassis cars is such a common thing that there would have to be 625x10^887 mentions of how to do it on the internet already. Just have a strong google.

I'm not sure you understand. I'm not putting a vg box into an s chassis.

I'm putting an s chassis engine into a vg equipped car. Alpha Omega will not sell parts I need separately, only a complete kit as they "garauntee it will work as a complete kit".

I only need the bell housing adapter and clutch adapter.

I might be missing something but can't see how it hard to understand.

And how does that differ from what I posted? SR engine connected to VG transmission. Does not matter what the chassis is when it is just that one connection that you need to know about. And as I said, it has been done bajjillions of times before, so there must be many many people who have discussed it on the interpipes.

Thanks Jesus and Mary but Im after one that bolts on  ie in picture from alpha Omega site. 

I think it's too simple for you to get your head around. 

Does anyone know of a company that will sell me an adaptor to mount an sr20 to a vg bell housing? No removal of gearbox, no cutting, no welding. No 10 piece kit when I need 1 piece. No drama queen high horse response.

Probably not but was worth a try. Will send my ?to China because of greedy local companies.

 

 

You need to mill it down if it's going on a S13/14 motor.
Only way to get a bolt up kind of jobby is through Eleven10 engineering, he will cut/machine/weld up you a bell housing.

Even the Alpha Omega kit needs you to exchange bell housings (as they mill it down), unless you're bolting this up to a S15 SR20DET motor.

I've fitted up a few of these kits before and for correct speedo translation to your S13 dash and/or similar Nissan cluster use a Z32 N/A speedo sensor. It will out by about 5~10km/h at most.

    • The powder coating came in at $250 EACH. The TRX rims got a coat of clearcoat on the outside only.    
    • Bit wet, but YUMMY
    • Keeping in mind that I am currently getting flat 10 L/100km on my RB25DET, which means >>500km/tank. I would test this car for vacuum leaks, check codes and AFM signal with NissDataScan as D says, check plugs, do a compression check while they are out.
    • It is hard to be specific half way across the world...but it *seems* like it might have a minor issue. Is the idle stable and does it rev smoothly? I would not expect any pops out of what I am assuming is a standard ECU, standard tune, standard exhaust. You can use Nissan Data Scan to find out exactly what is happening when it runs, the cable/software is reasonably affordable if you are not planning on changing the ECU (which hopefully you are not with an NA skyline) BTW your mileage may not be that far off, these are heavy old tech cars, and being NA might mean you use a heavy foot to keep up with traffic....
    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
