Do you mean the SR20DET? If so I think there was discussion about this in the Engine Swaps / Forced Induction section but I'm not sure if anyone had done it.

There is a US company in Boston that have done one. Same company did a Mitsi Evo engine in an E30 too. Apparantly the SR20DET conversion is easier, but the engine is heavier and more expensive to tune than the Mitsubishi.

Might just be a case of gearbox adapter plate to mount it to the Getrag and custom engine mounts. However, I do know that the SR20DET has a bitch of a wiring loom. Aftermarket ECU?? winkeye
