Sooo about a month ago I was cut off and ended up jumping a curb to avoid the wreck. In return for saving the bitches ass who cut me off; I was informed that my car was totaled and they would give me a decent amount of money, but would leave me with out a car. : / its been pretty gay, but the one thing that has been keeping my hopes up was geting to fix my 240sx. So yesterday I began the build by buying a s15 notch top with rear end. Im going to start ripping everything out of my car tomorrow inorder to have a home ready for my SR to rest in.
Here is the fun part. Ive never done a swap before.... lol I know how stupid it was of me to get myself into this mess (swap) but I really want to do it big while I can cause Ill prolly never have this chance again.
So the reason why I'm making this tread for. Is to ask for help from yall people who I dont even know (yet.) anything would be great advice, man power, tech support, cheap parts, info, a shoulder to cry on when its all going wrong. OR just some support! Well stay tuned and be prepared to shoot your flamethrowers! cause its going to get nasty! I know only enough to get myself in trouble, but I always seem to get out of it when I need to. :D

s15 motor was a good choice of motor new less chance of it being fuck better turbo and injectors. first things first scrap the trans and rear end. you can use a 5speed ka with sr bell housing or a 5 speed sr trans. send the wiring to wiring specialties they will make it all good. with all that stuff it is basiclly a normal sr swap. if you have a ka tranny call sr20 store i got a sr bell housing for 75 plus shipping. if you have any other questions fell fee to ask.

i have a sr bellhousing for $65..
save some money and buy the swap minus the transmission. Find you an sr tranny or use a ka and pickup a bellhousing like travis said.

already bought the set up... is the six speed that bad? ive been reading and I cant find a straight answer. I was really hoping to use the subframe and lsd.. cause I know the s13 subframe is meh and It has 5 lug and break calipers. ill post the pics that where on the ebay page.

6 speed ratio sucks for drifting if thats what ur goin for , sell the 6speed and buy a 5 speed ,
southsideedge
06-18-2009, 12:13 PM
Ahhh yea thats right. I was afraid of that. I kinda wanted the six speed for highway driving but I rather drift.. how much can I get for a 6speed?? I still got a KA motor. so maybe ill just buy the bellhousing. make the swap a loooootttt easier.

put it on zilvia or craigslist. buy a 5spd, spend money on getting the rest of the swap done.
ditch the s15 sub frame and give it to me. :)

if that is the sub frame and rear end you are buying tell them you dont want it the sub frame is bent on the pass front mounting point and if i remember correctly the s15 uses different mounting points so it would be a pain to fab up new mounting points

well fuck I feel like a noob. I didnt even see that the point was bent. I figured it was just the angle of the picture, but o well ill just take the five lug and brakes and whatever else I can and do something with the subframe live and learn. I knew this shit was to good to be true.. lol its called learning I guess. should of just got a s14 and saved some money.... sigh... maybe i can bitch them out and get some money back. but I doubt it.

WAT
why do u need to buy a harness???
why did you fuck up
you jumped into a swap that most wouldnt but thats cuz of the cost of the engine , its still a sr
meaning its cake

edit:thought you were wrong, just re-researched it and it just takes some eccentric spacers.
incorrect sir, japan dudes use the s15 rear subframe on s13's all the time due to its difference in toe/camber ability on compression. that, and normal stock s13 subframes are super weak. seen a couple on ziptied that cracked. when the suspension compresses on s15 subframes, it doesnt toe/camber gain near as badly as regular s13 subframes do either. thus, making it a subframe that'll allow for more traction ability under load, thus making it faster during drift basically with the extra grip ability

ah yea.. idk im just freaking out cause I dont have any idea what im doing.. lol I think i just need to go out to a thursday meet and talk to yall guys. but yea It has a cut harness and I need to find an ecu. Can anyone tell me how much it would cost to get someone to wire it for me. or something. idk. im just kinda in a buzz with all the shit I didnt think about that i am now. but its all good. im going to get a "cherry picker" here in a bit and I need to buy a bell housing I guess. so I dont use the 6 speed. I was reading on people just swaping coils and using a s14 harness and ecu. but then I would have to get tuned for 480cc injectors and what not.

if you're really that worried about wiring and getting it all done, there's a shop up here that actually does some really good work. They've been working on Russell Walker's s15sr s13 with re-wiring the whole car to have working headlights/brakelights/etc, refab'd the headers on Stewart Leask's ls1 s13 and are rebuilding his sr for his s14, and have body work and alignment work on Tyler Cox's 450whp sr s14(before it got totaled at d1). Zero Hour Motorsports in Arlington. lemme know if you're interested at all
travis
06-19-2009, 09:15 PM
i didnt know that about the rear subframe but still if you look at the picture it still has the mounting point bent and cracked. if you bought one with a cut harness i would call around to see what could be done. i have seen zero hours wiring on fabricated motor sports it looks real good.
southsideedge

Arlington is a tad out of my range... and prolly the amount I can spend. Im going to read some more and figure out where im at. I just spent the day disconnecting and labeling wires off of my Ka. jake also riped a few things off that I dont really know about.. X_X but its all good. I will prolly need to buy a bellhousing soon.. but I need to read on that shit too. X_X I kinda just want to do the six speed just cause it would be cool to have a six speed, plus I do a lot of driving on the highways cause this car is going to be my DD but I will also be using it for drifting.

you are over thinking your build throw a 5 speed in there. usually the only difference in a 5 speed trans and 6 speed trans is the 2nd 3rd and 4th grears highway rpms are pretty close to gether so the gas savings wouldnt be that noitcable. its a 240 if you want great gas mileage get a jetta tdi.

SUP NINJA!!! lol i met you a couple of times with jake. Simplify the build.
"And the S15 SR is the worst to wire up; the differential houses the speed sensor, so a complete S15 6 speed swap requires the use of the driveshaft, the diff (helical LSD), and the gauge cluster to read the speed sensor. Oh, and good luck wiring the gauge cluster up. It's not fun!" - quoted from, http://www.nissanforums.com/sr20de-det-engines/134309-s13-s14-s15-sr20det-differences.html . Sounds like your over half way there, All you need is a s15 cluster, and a pin out of the cluster and wire that bitch up. the rest should be cake just like the rather routine sr swap harness. (example - http://www.frsport.com/SR20DET-Swap-Engine-Harness-Wiring-Diagram-Guide-SR-SR20_t_26.html.) I will make you a harness for a very small amount of money, some purple drink, and i get to drive the car one time once it starts.

Tyler
06-22-2009, 12:49 PM
you have to use the 5spd sr bellhousing, the 6spd one is different since its a completely different transmission. the ka and sr transmissions are exactly the same, the only difference in them (aside from the bellhousing) is the 5th gear ratio. where as in the 6spd, the ratio's are different, but made up by the final gear being different than other s-chassis'

if you're looking for a stock s15 ecu, i think Russell might still have his since its kinda hard to sell an ecu hardly anybody has the motor for in texas. I have his number, Travis has hin number, TLG i think has his number, or you can probably just get on fabricatedmotorsports and just message him there and find out if he has it or not. if he does, im positive he'd sell it to you for a very reasonable price.

08-04-2009, 12:35 AM
check out mmr-direct.com they have engine and tranny mount. i just put the fc subframe and diff mounts in my car this last weekend and liked them. also had the tranny mount on my old sr 240 car liked it as well. only thing i didnt like was that there was no mount for the exhaust hanger but that can be done with a little fabing.
Tyler
08-04-2009, 01:27 PM
i totally disagree with the choice of solid mounts of any kind. ive ridden in a car with them before and fucking hate it to death, feels absolutely awful. also, do NOT mix match mount types like regular motor mounts and a solid trans mount, that is asking to have the bellhousing of the transmission to crack at some point in the future. not a matter of IF, a matter of WHEN. example: ...im lucky i caught the crack soon enough to just have the guys at zero hour weld it shut. i hate hate hate hate the solid trans mount in my car(im sorry travis), but it sucks major MAJOR MAJOR balls.
all in all, if you do the solid mounts, im sure you might regret it. just get something like nismo motor and trans mounts or just buy some new oem ones so that the car feels more comfortable rather than rattle to all fucking hell and feel like garbage.
southsideedge
08-04-2009, 06:18 PM
hmmm hate the solids that much huh.. well ill look around. i think im going to do a bit of research and see what the word is over all, and Im looking at radiators and Im finding ok deals on 2 rows but will the 2 rows handle the heat good enough if I get electric fans? and does anyone know if godspeed makes good rads. I found a deal on ebay for a godspeed rad with 2 slim electric fans. for 200 plus ship.. but its a 2 row. should I get this?
im going to read the radiator tread right now.. i read it once but i cant remember everything. soo maybe that will answer my questions.. I wish I could find a cheap koyo.
Tyler
08-04-2009, 07:19 PM
here's what you need to do in regards to the mounts. you're going to probably find people all like 'oh man solid mounts are totally the way to go cause itll remove the torque loss blah blah blah'. with an sr, you dont need to worry about torque loss, who fucking cares when you have plenty of power to spin the 225's or whatever you're gonna run as it is. just answer this: do you plan on driving the car on the street? if so, then it sounds like a terrible idea. the whole point to a street driven car is to have something that you're comfortable with. and if youre comfortable with solid mounts on a street driven car, then thats your thing. but for the majority of people, its an awful experience .
as far as radiators, id honestly just either save up for a koyo, look around on zilvia for sale section, or if you want to cheap out a little, ive seen mishimoto's work just fine too and they're cheaper than koyo. never seen a godspeed radiator for myself, but whatever. also, as far as cooling goes on sr's. you will never ever ever ever EVER beat the stock clutch fan and fan shroud for cooling if you just put an aluminum radiator in like you plan on doing. nothing comes close. ive seen taurus fans, FAL fans, SPAL fans, altima fans, none of them....NONE. i strongly suggest find a clutch fan shroud and get that clutch fan a-workin'
you can trust godspeed all you want with intercooler/exhausts, those dont matter except that all of their gaskets suck donkey balls.

i could see where the flex of the motor and the no give of the trans would cause a crack (sorry tyler) . i was recommending the brand of mounts cause i put it in and liked the fitment and what not. i put that mount in cause i was getting a vibration and i didn't wanna put another old as busted mount. i have just put in the mmr diff and sub frame mounts and plan on using the motor and trans mounts put i also have a daily car so a little roughness will be ok when i drive it. look at what you wanna do if you don't mind a little noise and vibration ok just replace everything solid. if you are going to daily it get the nismo (us rx7 folks don't have as many options). dont over think your build just stick to the kiss (keep it simple stupid) rule and you will be fine.
Tyler
08-05-2009, 01:35 AM
please take this as constructive criticism travis, nothing against you or your opinions.

first off, you have no reason to apologize, sa'll good. still luv ya ;) Anyways, you kind contradict yourself a little here on the 'if you dont mind a little roughness, go ahead and do it' and then the 'keep it simple stupid'. my reason for saying youre contradicting yourself is that the most simple thing to do would be to just get brand new oem ones from nissan or equivalents from autozone or something because then he could just go order/find them that much easier as opposed to having to read reviews on people who have driven on solid mounts and posted what they thought, what they have, then him looking those up and THEN finally ordering. the simplest thing to do would be to just go to nissan/autozone and tell them what you want. ALSO, travis, have you ever ridden/driven in a 240 with solid motor/trans mounts? i could be wrong, but i do believe you have not. please correct me if otherwise. but your 'a little roughness' is huge understatement. ive driven tons of cars out at mineral wells for events with testing random kids' cars and such to help instruct....that ONE car that i drove with the solid motor/trans mounts was the ONLY one i needed to drive to tell me how utterly awful they were.
Tyler
08-05-2009, 01:50 AM
Also, southsideedge, please do not take my posts as any sort of attack. i do not mean to come off as if im smarter than anyone, im simply trying my best to help you understand what my opinions are based off of. you're going to do what you're going to do because it is your car, not mine. i just post what ive experienced for myself from the many cars ive driven/tested. my opinion is solely based on my personal want for a street car that is comfortable to sit in, doesnt shake all over the place and rattle like a tin can with a few pennies in it. i can assure you, however, that the solid mount will do you no good performance wise. you would not be able to ever tell the power difference between an oem one and a solid mount setup. i know, i know. people reading this are probably thinking to themselves, "what? of course i can feel it. it feels waaay more peppy and instant than it did before". my answer is this: Placebo effect. in your mind you're thinking, "well i just did something, therefore, it MUST have changed somehow". truth: it did. it made the car annoying to drive since it rattles and shakes uncontrollably, but nothing more.
again, i went off on a rant about my opinion. take it as you will. wont hurt my feelings either way lol

are you fucking retarded charles? youre a fucking tech for crying out loud? you think i did something to make the crack start? it has oem motor mounts and a solid trans mount. the motor has some play to move, and the tranny doesnt, what the fuck do you think the weakest link is between the two?
Clarkbar
08-06-2009, 08:20 PM
ok first off fuck you!! the twisting action between engine and transmission can cause a bell housing to crack.. that's entirely true.. but when a solid trans mount is used all the stress is then put on the motor mounts if they are not solid as well, i understand your logic about it "causing your bell housing to crack" but your motor really doesn't have that much torque..key word TORQUE.. now if you had solid mounts all the way around you actually have a better chance of cracking a bell housing because you have less give and its aluminum.. when that happens all the stress is put on the bell housing butt fuck.. but i guess you know all because you worked at a Lexus and not Nissan Dealership.. oh and a certain someone is still waiting for $300...

you forgot to add in that i've owned 4 or 5 better/cooler cars than you probably ever will. and dont try and hassle me for my wheel color currently, you have no place hassling me about car looks with a car like yours. "mmnnnaaa! ive been going to events" well, guess what, that has nothing to do with you attempting to give me shit for how my car looks when i get the compliments i do for it. you trying to hassle me for how my car looks is like me trying to hassle aaron for driving skill.
and here come the jokes for how many cars ive owned. and if it really means so much the current count is 1 corolla, 1 cressida, 1 celica, 1 camry, 1 miata, and 9 running 240's with 4 non-running ones. I'll update as time goes by haha
oh and a certain someone is still waiting for $300... Muah :*
and frankly, that is non of your business, so id appreciate it if you'd stop trying to act like it was. you are not the person that can give me any crap on that, ive known travis longer than anyone on here so he knows that if he needs to say something to me, he has my number. neither one of us need you going on about that which has nothing to do with you.

lol your so awesome!!! i wish i can own as many cool cars as you!!! that would make me so cool!! get over yourself!! you sound like a female!! your so quick to talk shit about EVERYONE!!! then when it comes back to you its a big no no!! as far as me "HASSLING YOU" about your wheel color you could go suck a bag of dicks!! they would look cooler white!! but i guess i cant say anything because your car is so awesome and mine looks like poo... your a fucking moron, i was just giving you a suggestion, as i have been!! i swear you should really listen to yourself sometimes... anyhow i really don't give a fuck.. it just shows what everyone says is about you is true..

08-14-2009, 09:39 PM
just a cheap cxracing. o and is a 2 row good enough or should I get a 3 row? i see a lot of mishimoto 2 rows that are kinda in my range. or should I go with spending a 100 bucks more to get a koyo?
Clarkbar
08-15-2009, 07:10 PM
koyo would be best, but mish works too.. just depends on your budget lol

I have been following this thread closely since I have always thought this swap made the most sence.
Nismo just made a new six speed tranny that is lighter than the stock six can handle about 80 more horses AND has the s13 speedo plug in so you don't have to use the s15 guage cluster.
Btw. Tyler? Are you the guy I met with the Lexus v8 stuffed in a Corrolla?

hmm is there a site on this new 6speed? im just going to be running my KA tranny with an SR bellhousing.

Yeah, I figured you were gonna keep it simple, I thought I'd mention it for anyone craving a six speed. The gear ratios are closer in 2, 3, and 4 so it's easier to keep your revs up. try www.sportcompactcarweb.com

there was a long ass thread about rads a couple months back and turned out that then single core copper koyo rad with either clutch or electric fans was the best choice. thats prolly what im gonna do is get that copper single core. the 2 core is cool cuz its all big and race carish but you dont really need anything that big. charles you remember what post im talking about? the one pedro posted up a while back?
Clarkbar
08-18-2009, 01:17 AM
yea but its not really that serious get a popular rad that works and is cost effective.. done.
southsideedge
08-18-2009, 03:03 PM
Got a koyo. just said fuck it and spend the money. and I read that tread it was amazing. the copper koyo was the best valve. but I got a 2 row anyways cause I see in traffic a lot.. I plan on some electric fans anyways soo ill be alright.
Clarkbar
08-18-2009, 09:32 PM
no electric fans!!! get an oem fan shroud and clutch fan!! you will never overheat!!
southsideedge
08-19-2009, 11:07 PM

get a fan shroud from west covina, ditch the tiny koyo and get the biggest ebay aluminum radiator you can find.

I think ill be good with the koyo. but does anyone have a s15 connecter for the ecu... lol I need one to get my harness made.

09-08-2009, 02:38 PM
question!!!! soo I got the 6 speed off the sr the other day and I saw something I didnt like. when I got the bell housing off there was water in it and the fly and clutch had water and very new looking rust on it.. I know it got rained on once when my tarp got blown off by high winds.. its this really bad or what? do I just need to clean it up and it be on my way or am I in trouble please give me some feedback on this...
travis
09-08-2009, 09:40 PM
If it is just surface rust you should be alright but i would recommend replacing the rear main seal. Word of advice replaced clutch and fly wheel. Light weight flywheels are super fantastic amazing things.
Do it

How much are we looking at.. I really dont got much cash and im kinda just hoping to get the car running before to long.
Carlita
09-10-2009, 01:31 AM
if there is rust on you flywheel just get some thousand grit sand paper and sand it off,if there are little cracks i would recommend getting a light weight one if you can afford it if not it should be fine if the cracks are not massive.as far as the clutch if there is still life on it put it in and burn the rust off and your good to go.
