to be honest I would just go with a 4AGZE.. and then turbo it if that's what you want.. I think this would be less trouble!!

and if you wanted a two litre you'd probably use the 3sgte anyway

it would be possible using the pulsar sss 5 speed gearbox.
although everything you do would have to be custom
and it would be a pain in the ass..
but if your dead set, go for it.
good luck.

if my mate can fit a 3sgte into ae82 then you should be able to put them into a ae92. The sr20 would be a killer conversion as being an alloy block it should be lighter than a 3sgte.
anyways best way to see if it will fit is to start measuring your available space and then measure the engine gearbo so see if it will fit. Work out what parts you will need to carry over and where you plan to fit them. Also consult an engineer to find out if the conversion will be legal or what you ill need to make it legal.
Good luck if you decide to do this conversion

Dont expect the all alloy SR20DET to be super light.
Its heavier than its cast iron sister the CA18DET

agreed, the SR20 is a hefty sonofabitch.. as is the 3SGTE... the 4A is much lighter base to work with, and esp for FWD, would help you retain some sort of cornering ability..
then again, the extra 50kg or so will give you a bit more traction perhaps?
as long as you can make engine mounts to fit, AND get driveshafts that will fit both the box and the hubs, then why not? it would certainly be an individual setup, but for a FWD, is all that power potential a good thing? heh heh, be unltra different and fit an SC14 to the SR20 for the pinnacle of hybrid weirdness

SR20DET = compromise of a compact motor with agressive valve angles = rocker ARMS!
don't bastardise your corolla, If your dead set on a 2.0L conversion, look to a 3S-GTE or for a powerfull NA solution look to a 2ZZ-GE or 4A-GE

11.5:1 + turbo = not smart.

I believe it has been done, though only runnig modest boost eg, less than 10psi.

Buy a SSS Pulsar, the money you save from custom parts and a painfull conversion you will be able to make the pulsar quicker
and dont EVER put a nissan motor in a toyora

Yep U13 Bluebird SSS or RNN14 GTiR
the gtir motors make more power, has quads and revs better though

Or alternatively, put in a 4A-GZE, sell the supercharger & install a turbo.
The money saved on the custom mounts & subframes (which you would need in a FWD conversion) you rebuild the motor with bigger turbo, custom manifolds, forged pistons, replace the head with a 20v, etc.
I know of 200+kW at the wheels versions of these.
Also, you have to remember that FWD engine bays are generally built around the engine.
Toyota FWD engines (with the exeption of the V6s where Camries have a removable subframe) have an engine mount on the end of the motor (where the belts are), & then one on the end of the gearbox. The other 2 are on the side either on the engine bell housing or the gearbox bellhousing.
Adapting another engine is a lot more difficult than a rwd, especially from another manufacturer.

Why? It seems that people I know who I might have given credit for intelligence in some areas so readily go SR mad over other seemingly more logical options.

i think people try to be different and try something illogical to make something out of this world. If there wasnt people like this arround willing to think outside the square and willing to take on something difficult instead of taking the easy rout all the time wher would the human race be. Something to think about befor people start baggin others for trying to be original.

Nobody loves the underdog project more than me (watch this space over the next couple of weeks, I'll stick some pics up), but to me, the underdog project is something you do yourself for the fun of doing it, not something you pay someone else to do. Generally, if you're paying someone to do your car for you, it's better to stick with a 'better known' route.
Also, there are more original ideas around - people seem to think the SR is the only 4 potter ever made, and tend to ask about putting them in everything...

I agree.
If your going to try most of the work yourself i think thats an awesome project
However I still think a 3sgte (toyotas under-rated sr20) would be a great choice too!
If in doubt....race tape....anything that doesn't fit properly....race tape
