    620 SR20DET swap

    ]2eDeYe (Steve) on the forum makes and sells engine and transmission mounting brackets for KA swaps. PM and ask him if it will work on the SR engine.
  2. The earlier 810 probably also used them. Many 720s used the 3.54 ratio H-190 differential also but would have 29 spline side gears. You can swap your 23 spline side gears from your Maxima into it. Mklotz70 on here has a tutorial for swapping side gears. I think it's in the "How To" section.
  3. Check the U joints? Drain and change the differential oil. Is it contaminated ? have metal on the drain plug magnet? If by chance it IS an LSD be sure to use LSD oil. unlikely you have an LSD but they can click. Find a large parking lot and turn a half dozen left circles followed by 6 right circles. This will work the differential oil up onto the clutch surfaces.
  4. Start with basics… Check or set the valve lash 0.012” for all. Make sure the cam is turned so the rocker is not on the cam lobe. check or set the ignition timing at 3 degrees BTDC. A retarded ignition really cuts power and mileage. make sure the choke turns off to the full open position after a 10 min warm up. A choke stuck on will destroy mileage and affect performance. Check tank and fuel line for leaks. Check the adapter plate and gaskets between carburetor and intake for cracks or causing vacuum leaks.
  5. Over bore and new pistons and rings and you have a new engine. Anything you get might be over the wear limit and you’d have to do the same anyway or it’s got other problems. Stick with a known good engine and fix it. Almost any cylinder damage can be corrected by boring it.
  6. So…. Just out of gas? I was freaking out. So you let the car down rather than the car letting you down. lol
  7. The wiper headlight combo switch if it matches yours for sure. Front marker/signal lights as they are easily damaged. 4x4s are black rather than chrome. I guess the tail lights (there are three styles) as long as they match yours. Starter and alternator if original rather than store rebuilt crap. Grab the distributor! Fuel pump relay definitely and the electrical pump! Instrument cluster if it has optional clock and tachometer option. 4x4 oil pressure sender, use wrench down behind on the nut. Do not grab it and twist it! I guess the amp and oil pressure gauges, why not? High wear items like rubber brake and clutch pedal pads if better shape than yours same with front carpet if in better shape as well as the plastic door sills. Arm rests and door cards if in better shape. more later
  8. Why didn't Cheto do something back in 2016 then? It's high order bullshit. He complains now to drive a wedge between Canada and the US and to make it look like he's saving you, and you are way to MAGA (stupid) to see through it.
  9. 7.7 X 1.5 = valve lift in mm If you X by 0.394 = lift in inches. Stock L20B cam lift is 0.413". Lift will increase or decrease the power band but not where the power band in on the rev range. Most cam grinders rate the lift at 0.050" lift. 270 is likely the cam duration in degrees. Duration moves the power band up or down. You may have to change out he lash pads as they will be too thick for a stock lift cam. Wrong lash pads will move the cam wipe position on the rocker dangerously close to the edge of the rocker pad. Sluggish below 3k is where 99.999% of driving is done.
  10. Idiots. The proceeds of a crime. Legalize and regulate it and they go out of business and a tax goes to the state. Everybody wants it why buy from criminals??? or become one yourself and become a burden on all tax payers???
  11. '79-'83 280zx struts are good. Monster size calipers and rotors. May need 14" rims to clear calipers. Cut both 610 and zx lower spring perches off struts and swap the 610 spring and perch onto the zx strut tube. Use the 610 top hat to match the 610 spring. Hold the spring perch in place with 2" split collars. A side benefit is the ride height is now adjustable. The larger caliper will make the brakes feel spongy so swap in the early '79-'81 15/16" master.
  12. lol I remember Mr. Ed.
  13. What about a stable genius? I know one who is a major racist. Basically a Nazi.
  14. He looks the same age as in 2026, how is that possible????? Why doesn’t he look mid 50s????? Asking for a MAGA who didn’t notice or care
  15. Pull the wheels and free the bra brakes. It’s just rust holding them. You may need to replace a lot of brake parts. If running try moving to snap them lose then remove the wheels.
