whats up all? I've recently come in ownership of an 87 200sx. I've been around nissans alot, but newer to the older nissan's, and not quite sure whats what. so i ordered myself an original dealership service manual to help explain this mess of hoses and wires.
The ignorance of a dumbo before me ghetto rigged a whole bunch of crap, also, it runs like crap. poping, stalling, no power. Ive come to realize the ca20e is either a worthless, or very pricey to rebuild engine. So, i was wondering if any of you guys knew off the top of your head a good sr20det swap thread, or possibly a ca18det.. I've been doing a bunch of reading and research, but have yet to find a great detailed thread..
Any help is welcome, anyone in the PA area with an s12??

New toy, s12 in PA
Welcome. there is a lot of info in stickied threads about pretty much all of the standard swaps...KADE, KA-E, CA18DET, SR.
The CA20 is pretty worthless unless your car is a point a to point b daily driver, in which case it's not too bad.
Yeah, the CA20 had great mpg but not so great RWHP laugh Keep us updated on the project!
Thanks! I'll get pics up asap, but i accidentally left my camera at a friends.
welcome, my build thread is messy, and has two swaps in it. but one is a sr swap. you can check it out
if you wait, i was actually gonna consider deleting my thread/summing it up into a more organized one
This car wouldnt happen to be white would it?
This car?
Yes "Deezus" this is the car. I am the one who you brutally screwed over Tongue
Me? I didnt sell you the fucking car. Dont go sayin i screwed you over.
If it wasnt for me that car wouldve been in even worse condition. I got the thing to move. The guy you bought it from did all the gay retarded shit.
EDIT: Oh, youre ganna need new rear subframe bushings, shocks, and possibly a diff. Brakes work good.
EDIT:EDIT: oh, it has a massive intake leak, it needs a new EGR valve <-- Whats causing the problem., just remove the emissions shit and you dont need to worry about it, im sure theres writeups on here. Maf is phucked. uh.... oh and the fart can thats on it is retarded and is melting the bumper so you might wanna fix that too. I was told the clutch was going out but when i drove it i couldnt feel anything wrong with it.
EDIT:EDIT:EDIT: oh, the iacv has a block off plate behind it... Take that shit out.
