Description
Genuine JDM Nissan SR20DET 2.0L DOHC Turbocharged Engine
The SR20DET is a 1,998 cc DOHC 16-valve inline-four featuring an 86 mm × 86 mm bore and stroke configuration. Depending on the generation, it was factory-equipped with either a Garrett T25/T25G or T28-series turbocharger. The engine was used in iconic Nissan performance models including the Silvia S13, S14 and S15, 180SX, Pulsar GTi-R and other JDM applications.
Its combination of compact size, turbocharged performance and extensive aftermarket support makes the SR20DET a popular choice for drift cars, track builds, street-performance vehicles, restorations and engine-swap projects.
