"the sr20 is too tall, with its rocker arm type valve acutation and what not. of course the conversion has been done, but i know of one that used spacers to lower the engine cross member. i doubt this would pass engineering, or favourably affect handling, i expect it would create an even lower roll centre, which is not what you want. ( i am pretty sure the lower control arm pivot points are attached to the cross member"
1. The sr20 is not that tall if mount far back , mounted on the stock subframe there is 1cm between the bonnet and the front of the rocker cover if different engine mounts are used .
2. Spacers made from the correct matter can be used , and are engineer-able . But this doesn't have to be used if you compare a few toyota cross members .
3. Roll centre on the sprinter subframe is only correct at standard ride height , so any lowered sprinter will require the roll centre changed anyway . Easy if the s13 hubs are used there have a 30cm lower arm ball joint pivot point .
"you said "best drifter" well apart from that not being the case, drift = handling, so you really want to be improving handling, not vice versa."
4. Easy , do the conversion with the engine in the correct place and get the car back to the correct weight split , the gearbox is the heavy part . Mine has a 53/47 split . car weight 952kg full tank of fuel .
And about the engine , if its no good , why do so many people use it , and cost . get a $3000 half cut , sell the parts you don't need , engine box should leave you at $2200ish , And anyway if you to go fast it costs .
