    its cool, very easy to learn... the number denotes the amount of displacement in nissans.

    Like S13 = 1.3 Liter engine S14 = 1.4 Liter S15 = 1.5 Liter all Single cam (S)
    Z32 = 3.2 Liter , lacks any cam, has electronic cylinder-head therefore "Z"

    sr20DET = Single cam Racing motor 2.0L diesel electronic injection with Turbo

    its easy to decipher Nissan terminology.

    I highly doubt there is anything that looks exactly like that around those parts.
    (atleast not one that comes out on a week day anyways.)

    s13, s14, and s15 is just chassis code

    sr20det
    SR = Engine code
    20 = 2.0 litre engine
    D = Dual overhead Cam
    E = Electronic fuel Injection
    T = Turbocharged

    You were right in some aspects but trust me...the sr is NOT diesel powered =/

    and if IM wrong someone else correct me =p lol

    back to the subject.... please do not contest with me the fact that the D in SR20DET stands for diesel. The history of the engine is that it was primarily an industrial diesel engine very efficient in warehouse complex forklifts. The engine has since then been modified numerously and has became the potent beast of a street-engine.

    The SR also stands for special route 20 which is a popular drifting strip in japan. Coincidentially the engine is 2.0 litre, which is strictly a coincidence. Its all a common misconception, I am just going deeper into the nissan history. Please do your research before posting.

    Again: The SR20DET IS a diesel engine merely converted to run on gasoline.

    on a side note: The picture he posted was NOT a S15 conversion, it was an S15.

    thats what a JDM second generation SR20DET looks like, it can run on both diesel and fuel.

    There is a highway/road? in GA called sr20. I know some one has seen it. My friend told me that it was named after the 1963 non-turbo datsun tractor, but I dont know if he is telling the truth, so dont write it in stone.

    its true.... The SR20 is in fact a myth. It is a marketing strategy made by nissan. No actual engine exists in reality, only replicas of the planned out myth.
