Just been working on my sentra I have a header and new exhaust going on this Friday should sound good I hope

b11ga16de

last year i sold my original cluster with tach

this is what i got now

its from the b13 everything works

reeseman1981

I was going to do that but my parts car had a electric driven speedometer. I got a factory tach cluster from the junkyard but the tach was bad so I guess my $20 tach works for now. I didn't like not knowing how high I was revving my motor

dc588

Lol.I did pretty much the samething in my b12 .

Did some exhaust work today. Header 2.25" pipe and a magnaflow muffler

b11ga16de

how does it run with the header how much did you pay for it

reeseman1981

It runs great after getting the tiny old pipe off. it revs faster then before. The header was $88 on eBay but it didn't fit right it hit the oil pan so I took it to my exhaust guy and it was about $50 to fix it. I would have sent it back but the car is my daily driver and the three bolts that hold the factory pipe to the manifold broke off so I was kinda stuck making it work

So I have about 2000 miles on my swap now and still running strong I'm getting between 30-35 miles per gallon. I was driving down the freeway yesterday and buried the speedo in 4th gear didn't realize I was even going that fast. Got to say the swap was worth every penny spent

Got some 240 wheels

hey seeing that you completed the swap could you help me out a bit. I am contemplating installing a ga in my b11 as well but I would like to have some of the details worked out in myhead before i go off and buy stuff

what modifications were done to get the engine to work in the car. I mean like what mounts, brackets etc you used for both engine and gearbox?was any modification done?

Also, what axels did you use?

reeseman1981

Ok here is a quick rundown of what I used

1994 Ga16de
Engine with complete harness and computer
Clutch and flywheel from ga16.
Motor mount from ga16
I used the radiator and fan but not necessary stock will work
Fan relay
Fuel pump relay
One of the heater core hoses.


Stock on car

Transmission
Starter
Axles
Tranny mount
One of the heater core hoses(not sure which one)


Other stuff I needed

Fuel pump from a 88 ford bronco 2 it's a inline fuel injection pump ( can use a in tank pump from same car but I didn't want to mess with the gas tank. You can see how I mounted it in the pics I posted)

You can see the front torque mount I had to modify but that's the only mount I had to change

I started working on my car on a Friday afternoon and drive it out of the garage on Sunday.

I recommend getting a under hood wiring diagram for what ever your motor came out of that's what I did and it helped a lot

I get 35 mpg and I don't drive it very nice and will keep up with all the Honda punks aground here

If you have any other questions let me know and I will try to help you as much as I can

so let me get this straight. You used your stock e15s gearbox on the ga16de motor and all you had to change was the clutch,pp and flywheel? did it bolt up original or was any other modification done toget the gearbox to work(other than the front torque mount)?

thanks for your help thus far.

reeseman1981

Mine had the E16 and the stock transmission and starter worked on the ga16 motor all the trans bolts went right on. The ga16 trans has different axle splines so I didn't use it.

The clutch pp and flywheel were from the ga16de

I'm sure the e15 uses the same transmission
