So, I've been thinking about starting this big project for my P11. It currently has a GA16 with a five speed manual and is LHD. Been thinking about swapping an sr20ve engine with the six speed manual transmission from a JDM p12. I have a possible deal on the engine that comes with the trans, ecu and wiring harnessess.
Now I have a few questions. 1. What are the obvious changes I need to make since it is a GA16 to SR20 swap on a p11? 2. Does the transmission fit in place and if not, what changes need to be made? 3. Since it's a JDM engine, will I run into problems with mine being a LHD model? For example not being able to get the AC working etc. For parts I can get a p11 GT parts car for pretty cheap. Any help is appreciated, I've tried looking around but I didn't find anyone swapping a p12 sr20 into a p11 Si. Thanks! |

Thank you! Build is currently just in the planning phase but as soon as I get enough information and the required funds it will be on the way.
Right now the plan is: 1.Swap the engine and trannie and get everything functional 2.Disks in the back 3.Slamming it with a BC-racing kit 4.Get all that shit street legal And some additional steps I have in mind for later on down the road: 5.Nice performance exhaust 6.Some sweet new rims and tires 7.Maybe a paint job? I wanna keep the sleeper look so nothing too flashy but some nice new paint and getting it rust protected (Finnish winters aren't too nice on our cars) |

You've probably already came across this by now but I know when I swapped a sr into my ga16. The chassis gearbox mount was different from a gts. Other than that my mounts and box lined up. This was on a rhd tho
