looks like it has a few leaks haha. But at least its rear drive and now with a turbo. What motor would you upgrade it with? SR20DET??:D

BZZZT...1jzgte (2.5L inline 6 twin turbo) with a r154 5spd is the plan.then when that engine pops, a 2jz(supra engine) will go in it's place.

Haha, serious sleeper there! Nobody would expect much from that ole machine!

A good friend of mine has a 93 Sentra with a true JDM SR20DET in it! Also, STi injectors, sheetmetal intake, intercooled, same turbo from a Pulsar, laptop tuned, ACT clutch, some other goodies. A tranny from a Sunny i think? Its more close ratio than stock, on its 3rd tranny now.

Its run a best of 11.95 on a poorly preped track and some more left in it! Its pretty nasty for a sleeper FWD, looks all stock except the I/C in the bumper and i built him a Pro-FWD type, front bumper exit downpipe off the turbo! So its loud too.

Why not a Skyline engine to keep it Nissan. I've been back from Japan for too long to remember all the engine models.

I think an RB26DET would fit better, and ya keep it nissan. Plus no one in the states ever expects to see that motor since it never made it over here.

But shit, supras are just BLEEPING FAST!!!! Especially in that thing, it looks like it doesnt weigh anything.

Either way, people wont know what hit em.

I remember driving my buddies evo that had a couple things done to it, nothing crazy but ran good. And we were out forking around one day and saw this Mazda MX6. It was green and SOOOOO ugly with an big ol exhaust on it, so I went to fly by him, and that guy beat me!!! I was like WTF. So we go at it again, and he woops me AGAIN!!! So i signal for him to pull over and we get out, turns out he pretty much just welded a old 12V turbo on it, some piping and an intercooler, called it good and had an EVO beater. Sleepers are cool as hell but there is nothing like looking good in the process too :cool:

right the SKYRINE!!! (OMG someone said skyline!!) engine where either the RB25det(2.5L single turbo) or RB26dett (2.6L twin turbo)
like said, neither was sold here, so why would i want to use that engine that would be alot more trouble to get parts for? the supra engine (2jz) is very pletifull in the states as MANY cars used the non turbo version and they hold up to alot of power too! the 1jzgte that i plan to use can put down 600ish RWHP no problem. :hug:

There is a first gen camaro running a supra engine with turbos floating around on youtube. Those Supra engines are pretty sick!!
