the nissan sr20 is an awesome conversion a guy in our club has done it and it works great. Christover will be able to give more details on the convert.

Moose don't know what happened with the BMW conversion another one I have seen pics of was a volvo engine and gearbox. Also a fiat engine will go in as Joey with the sr20 used to have one

Joey used the non-turbo SR2oDE. firewall and Gbox tunnel cuts and remodelling. Gbox half Skyline and half other Nissan. No jackshaft, drive was by CV joint as a Jack-shaft (2" ). t-cae in original place, so tailshafts still original, but lifted 2", extra space from body lift. many many other bits of cutting welding and fabricating of radiators etcetcetc. but it werks well, but I couldnt do that much wer, not equiped or enthused, christover

I know I am biased & I've said it before but I'm gonna say it again. The 4AGE conversion is the best conversion. You have enough power to easily do naughty things to the speed limit without having too much power that you start breaking things in the drive-line.

2 litre injected Suzi - obviously. 2.5 V6 Suzuki likewise.

I'd go a CA18 Nissan (turbo or non turbo - your pick) before I'd go an FJ20 or SR20due to size, weight and cost. you can normally pick up a CA16 even for about $200-$300 at an importers. Likewise I'd go the 4AGE before the FJ20 - becky is onto somethign there...

Easiest option by far is the Suzuki motor - or turboing your existing one.
