      Agree with this comment, but the SR20? C’mon guys. It’s cool in its own right, but more suited for a lighter car. Hopeful to see how it ends up, but my opinion… this was a missed opportunity to do something new and exciting. 2J, LS, RB & SR have all been done many times over.

    VR30 with a VR38 intake manifold and air to air intercooler . Would have been awesome to see and not so common. There are a few companies making the piece to convert to a VR38 intake (Bonnie and Clyde performance , AMS is working on one and another company I can’t remember ) that will allow port injection fuel rail to accompany the direct injection it already has for easy E85 conversion. Then you could have went manual with the CD009 , new Z trans or even a Q50 Awd trans would bolt up.
    Edit: I’m a big JDM legends fan but it’s 2023 and some of these companies are putting out engines today that are just as performance capable as the older engines . Show some love for the companies who made legendary engines in the past that are still putting in house built engines into their sport cars unlike the BMW MK5 Supra

      While it would’ve been cool, the cost associated with a VR30 long block is no joke. There are already kits and such for an SR20, RB, JZ and other JDM legend engines which makes them a really viable and relatable option for them to show off. SR will be great, don’t worry :)

And makes a lot of power with low boost, it's amazing when you single turbo.We build quite a lot of rear mount 350zs in brazil.

    You want a good sounding VQ? Spending 3k on a full exhaust (headers, motordyne ART pipes and catback exhaust) then pair it with some 272 cams and you have the best sounding VQ around 🌚🤷‍♂️ I would know, i get compliments almost every single day from other enthusiasts. Thats only because they’re used to the raspy VQs not a nice deep sounding one

    I like where your heading with this build. Looking forward too seeing this engine and car come to life.

    Rb26 in the 300 zx, would have almost been like a poor man's gtr, with the characteristics of a corvette.. wedge nose, big engine power, and a lot of fun to rip around.

    Idk if I’m dreaming. CRX, SR20 and the FREK in the background? 🔥

    I still would love you all to do a 20v 4AGE into something. Maybe an old school AW11 MR2. Keep it NA too. Run individual throttle bodies too. Ton of parts. Shouldn't cost much compared to most of your builds.

    Oh man Bummer, looks like you're going to have to sleeve it and stroke that SR!

    I have my eyes on this build, I want to do something (nissan fan here) and in my country I guess it's the build that makes more sense... keep up...

    Would love to see some different Nissan engine going in there, something like a CA18 or a KA24 but yay! another sr20 build from here... IMO a CA18 would sound much better (and its lighter and narrower) and probably handle very well the amount of power you guys are putting on it... probably :D

      A different nissan engine would mean keeping the factory VG30 too. Ironic isn't it?
