What is it that you want to know? Just ask some questions and someone might be able to help. :)
 
well first off...i found one, real cheap..and my buddy who has helped install one on a gsx told me I should buy it and put it in my non turbo...my question is I know engine parts aren't interchangeable between turbos and non, so can this engine bolt into my n/a and would I also have to get a turbo tranny...and axels or could I use my n/a parts..I'm pretty sure this engine came out of an evo, but im not sure which model

also my buddy is a nissan guy..he has an s15 powered 240sx which dynoed at 450 some hp..he can tear down and rebuilt anything JDM nissan engine in under two days, he has had limited experience with DSM, and he told me that this 4g63t engine is a monster...310 hp at the flywheel and 260 to the wheels...forge pistons and rods...etc.....is he correct

so yeah..thanks to anyone that can help me out with this

No hes not, i have a JDM cyclone motor, the only difference in the american built motor and the JDM one is the intake manifold, slightly higher compression, and stronger bottom end crank, rods, ect.

Now you wont notice much of a power gain unless you have the JDM ECU that comes with the motor, if you don't, then swap out that cyclone intake mani- with a normal turbo manifold and save your self some trouble.

But yes the JDM 4g63T comes with 210 HP with around 215 TQ compared to the 195 HP to 205 TQ from the stock one. and you CAN interchange several N/T parts like the N/T throttlebody and simple things like that.
the only problem i had was relocating my coil pack and trying to fit my AC compressor because of the different shape of the intake manifold i had to grind a small notch in the manifold just to get it in, im soon swaping it back to my stock one but gasket matching and things like that since i'll have it off anyway. if theres any more questions go ahead and ask
 
Yes, you were in the wrong forum, but no. We are not doing yet another Cyclone motor thread. Nor, another motor-swap thread.

After a couple of casual searches, you will realize why.

With sympathies, closed.
