EG k20 vs EG sr20

[quangsuke]

This question has been on my mind for quite some time. Would a EGK20 beat a EG with a SR20T engine from a Gti Pulsar?


EGk20
FF
NA

VS

EGSR20
FR
Stock Turbo from GTI

Note BOTH CARS RUNNING WITH STOCK ENGINES

[90LAN]

sr2o vtec motor will be quickest in the eg

[CB7_OWNER]

why the sr20det from a gti-r in FR form? why not keep the AWD from the gti-r too? have you considered a rb26dett??

But if i had to choose..i'd say the turbo is faster

[55EXX]

on paper

GTi-R - 169 kW
EP3 - 158 kW


i'd say driver

[90LAN]

k20 has better gear ratio's too with 6 speed gearbox
and jdm itr power is over 160 kw

and having a gtir sr20 motor in a eg will cost alot more to fit
but why would you when you could just turbo the k20

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

THERE ARE TOO MANY VARIABLES, FFS


and having a gtir sr20 motor in a eg will cost alot more to fit

In reality its probably more effective to get a GTi-R then to fit the SR20 into an EG (and then try and get rear wheel action?)

You get the SR20, You get the AWD Nostalge, You get the old school nostalge with it aswell.

In reality its going to come down to alot of things, money is the first that comes to mind.

like I said above, too many variables, if you want to do more home work on it have a look into what N/A SSS Pulsar drivers are accomplishing, then just add turbo (which I know a few are doing)

well lets say were in a magical world where money and problems do not exist :rolleyes:

....you're a pain, back to the lounge Chunkette. lol

In reality you'd be getting the same thing with the SR20 option because the GTi-R and the EG have similar wheel bases.

Nissan Pulsar GTI-R — Wheelbase: 2430 MM (95.7 in)

Honda Civic (EG) - Wheel Base: 2570 MM (101.1)


What you'd have to deal with is converting the chassis to AWD/RWD and the headache of when things start breaking.

With the K20 he'd be stuck with FWD fun, still have stuff breaking (depending on how its driven) but not quiet as severe and I'd imagine the other conversion to be.

[jords]

I'd rather a K24 Hybrid with around 200 kilawasps if your serious about doing a big horsepower conversion.

[SPL_K]

FYI I'm 100% the EG K20 will be faster on a roll start from first hand experience :)

[curtis265]

the SR20 will be old and worn, so it would have lost some ponies.

[FLICK]

Stupid question for something thats not gonna happen. It like saying " whats better? a ferrari engine in an eg or a nsx engine in an eg. :thumbdwn:

[egSi]

build them both and find out :thumbsup:

[MikeyG]

put a holden gemini engine in the eg it will fly bro.. with hetic 20inch cromies! and two exahust both have to be 6inch!

[EM1]

Why not put the k20 in the front and the SR20 in the back so that you can get some sideways action when the boost kicks in and do some hectic drifting!

[quangsuke]

i know its a big WHAT IF question. But its just a hypothetical situation. Thanks for all the feedback. Like you all said MONEY is a big factor. But all your comments helped. Cheers

yer semi stupid question if you ask me...just buy a GTiR.... they already fitted with the goods if you want the sr20 turbo 4x4. IMO there an awesome car. Light, small, 4x4 and sr20 but dunno why you would think of putting one in a eg... so much hassle really for the same setup you would get in a gtir but 10 times the $$$'s. Even the thought of putting one in hurts my brains...

lol funny.

[OMG.JAI xD]

a b16a turbo would be better than sr20t in an eg. much easier and cheaper too.


Nissan engine in a honda, just not right man.
Honda spent more valuable time engineering their engines than nissan.
I have nothing against nissan though. Nissan in a nissan and honda in a honda.

You have to remember also, older gen honda engines are counter clockwise engines, so even if you can retro fit a sr20 in an eg, youd need a K series box or retro fit the sr box.
Then you go in the troubles with hub fitment with the driveshaft.

Ive been waiting for years to see one in oz (an eg with a working sr20det engine in fwd form)

In all honesty it'd be like an Nissan Exa I suspose, better off buying an Exa if you wanted that, could get them already done (working sr20det conversion, chrome rims, cut springs) for far less than $8k now adays lol

i didn't think it was that stupid a question.. after all they put SR20 motors in civics in Fast & Furious because they pull a premium at race wars.

ffs to end that sentence, they werent civics they were Nissan Sentras! The Civics got the b16 engines (three of everything lol) from the shop when the mexican handed over the thick wad of cash lol

[qikteg]

i think he was referring to when tran fills that dudes mouth with a nice sounding 40w.

- buy a gtir, buy eg exterior panels/bumpers
- get a bodyshop to make your gtir look like an eg. that would probably still work out cheaper than an sr20 into an eg.

[EK1.6LCIV]

ok after a few minutes searching I found something awesome

an ek with a rwd sr20det installed lol



and a rare eg with awd as factory and a video of it lol :)

Hector with the unpronounceable last name buys 3 of everything for honda civics.

johhny tran with an ek and a teg that "got no engines" is the one that wants premium sr20s a week before racewars

i dunno. i feel like i'm going to have to watch the movie again.

however according to wiki, some sentra's came out with SR20's anyway...

[EK1.6LCIV]

yea the sentra was nissans answer to competition to beat Hondas
worked in a way, still a very fast car over there to own

[trism]

nope. sorry. ive got all the evidence here.

he asks Ted whats wrong. Ted says nothing, Mr Tran grabs Teds head, pushes into engine bay, yelling "We got no engines do we Ted?"

note the green paint and the red protector mat.

He then goes on to say "A couple of neesan SR20s would pull a premium a week before race wars"

before we see this
http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k197/trism/tegcivic.jpg

whats that? its a teg, int eh same green, with the same red protector, next to a civic.

just to make that clear, here is a closer view
