i imagine it will be a custom job as with most engine swaps. will need custom mounts and a custom wiring loom. hasnt been done before as far as i am aware. dont know what the dimensions are of the sr20det compared to a 4efte or even the 3sgte that a few people have shoehorned into the little ep's ;)

No tio be fair i am probably just going to buy a forged engine of ebay for 2000 that'll go straight in no hassle and then put my hybrid turbo on it to be honest.

Having worked on a Pulsar GTIR I wouldn't recommend it. You'd ruin a reliable Toyota with behaviour like that lol.

I'd stick with what works mate.

if you want to be adventurous do a 3sgte 4wd conversion or 4g63 4wd conversion, sr20, that ish is for the birds

if you are going to run the 4WD system then I wouldn't bother with the Pulsar system, will last 5 miutes! 3SGTE FTW!
The SR20DE FWD Is a good engine but by the time you have spent £££££ getting half decent power out of it you might aswell just tune the shizzle out of the 4EFTE lol
