Can anyone help me? i was told by someone..i don't know if he was right or not, but i was told i could put a regular car engine in my little truck! (i think he said that i could probably put a Skyline or Silvia engine in there!) and i was wondering if he was right..and if he is right then where can i go to find engines from Japan..(the ones that they sell that have about 30,000 miles on them!)

if it is possible, i'd stick an RB20 in there. small enough to fit, but with the grunt you need.

hell, what am i saying. yes, you can fit an SR in a nissan truck. some guy put one in there. if that works, im sure the RB would fit.

the RB26 would require A LOT of time and money to make it fit. if it takes lots of money to fit one in a 240, im sure it would be the same for a truck.

dont know of any site or place with a swapped RB in a truck, but www.unstable-hybrids.com has good prices on RB20s.

Nissan trucks have the same KA motor as the 240. Which means that if you wanted to put the SR or RB20/25 in there you wouldnt have a problem considering its the same engine bay. RB26 your gonna have a problem fitting in because of the space required for the turbos. I would stick to the SR swap. Theres a guy from Team Hybrid that has a Nissan truck with the SR swap in there. he said it fit like a glove. I would go with that swap if I were you. If you must you can even get the S14 swap not even the S13 if you require a little more.
EDIT: Just as I thought I just looked it up right now and 94-96 Nissan pick ups have the KA24DE in there. You know you could even buy a turbo kit just for that motor. You would have an extra .4 liters which means more torque. But thats just a personal preference of mine. But it is VERY possible for an SR to go in there.

i think it would be cool..about how expensive do you think it will run me (with the extra parts if needed..ect.) ? just wondering, i don't even know if i'm going to do it or not..it's quiet a lot of $$$$ to save up..because right now i'm broke! but i am kinda curious about the whole thing because just saying that i have a Silvia engine or a Skyline Engine in my little TRUCK would be GREAT!!! thanks guys..anymore help would be great!

Still a great engine just to run boost on, and with the lower SOHC comp, you can push more psi through it without blowing it (however, not more hp, but it can get pretty close.)

NISMO makes more stuff for the KAE than the DE. there are a lot more E turbo setups that DEs. i'll look for the site that does E custom kits.

P.S. I think this thread should be moved to Forced Induction. OT is no place for tech talk
