Re:

I thought the different gearing affects the accelaration times and top speed no? I think the 3.91 will improve acceleration but sacrifice a little bit of top speed, as you hv shown in ur calculation. I am confused as to which gearing to choose from en route to my swap :?

Re:

Any reason why u chose 3,73 instead of 3,91 which should be more suitable for the tranny right?

Re: K-conversions SR20DET swap

As above Alun, make them up yourself or have them made up. Procedure would be as follows: Locate your engine in the engine bay supported by a jack, bricks, blocks of wood (whatever is required to locate the engine in the correct position for your conversion).

Re: E30 with SR20DET

Dear Theo325, I am looking to do the same swap. Would you recommend going with halfcut or just engine, tranny, ecu & wiring only? Back here in Indonesia there is a huge price difference between halfcut & engine tranny only and looking at your conversion, seems like you didn't use any other component...
