my friend has a 510 and is going to put in a sr20det. he currently has a L16 and basicly needs info on how to ,parts needed ,etc... anyone know or where to get the info needed for the swap i have tried some 510 forums and google and didnt come up with anything ... thanks

 

Totally off topic (Almost) : 2 of the top people at Mazda's R&D center in Irvine have turbocharged 13b rotaries in their personal Datsun 510s. Way cool.
I hope you find the info you're looking for.

 

Probably the simplest option would be a carburated 13b. The 510 is pretty spacious, so fit isn't too hard. I've seen a lot bigger things shoved into them. Still, I don't think there is a kit for this swap, so be prepared to fabricate what's needed.

 

yea, todd kaneko's car is bad ***!

 

Todd's is sweet and so is Kelvin's. These guys are the truest car enthusiasts.

 

sr20det and tranny
wiring harness
ecu
silvia rear end
custom mounts

 

sport compact car had an article on that. i'll see if i can dig up the issue.

 

i'll try to find that article too...DARKMAZ8 silvia rear end as in driveshaft and diff???

 

I know of a guy in Utah doing that swap, may try www.utahsr20s.com search there for info

 

so far ive seen that you have to reverse the front crossmember to give clearnce and get the drive shaft machined to fit trans to diff ...am i missing anything else ...ive found www.datsport.com
