Re: GTi-R Motor Swap

Has anybody actually done this swap? Is it feasible? I know that the GTi-R is not an OBDII car, whereas mine is.

Opinions & facts, anyone?

Thanks in advance...
Chris Allen (aka Shaggy) has done this on his B14 200SX. He also made 497whp with his car! It is completely built also.

Anyhow, it is feasible, I believe not all the bolt holes line up for the tranny but enough of them do.

Shaggy modified his stock GTiR manifold to accept a T3/T04 turbo and it seems the stock GTiR manifold flows pretty well. I suppose the numbers prove that :-)
