I got my 89 240sx swapped with a s13 sr20det blacktop and i noticed the tranny runs with a different gear ratio than any other sr20det. Its not much, most noticable is 5th gear runs about 400 rpms higher than normal. For instance, at 80 mph, I think the normal turbo tranny runs at 3500 rpms, but this one hits 3900 rpms.

I heard from a friend that the tranny might have originally belonged to a N/A sr20 rather than a turbo. If this is true, are there any problems with using this tranny with the turboed sr20 besides the lower gas mileage? I plan on hitting the track with this car so its going to be pushed pretty hard.

Sorry if this was already posted, I did a search for sr20de transmissions and didn't really find what I was looking for.

Could be from a DE or a KA with DET bellhousing. You'll be fine.
