Nissan Sr20det Manual transmission

A Nissan SR20DET Manual transmission refers to >a manual gearbox paired with the Nissan SR20DET, a popular 2.0-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged engine, and is available in 5-speed and 6-speed configurations. The 5-speed is the most common and generally considered the strongest, while the 6-speed offers closer gear ratios for better acceleration and top-end performance but may be slightly weaker. 

Details of the SR20DET Manual Transmission:
  • Type of Transmission:

    It’s a manual, meaning the driver controls gear selection using a clutch pedal and gear stick. 

  • Common Variants:
    • 5-Speed: This is the most prevalent and well-regarded manual transmission option for the SR20DET, known for its strength and reliability. 
    • 6-Speed: Found on later SR20DET engines, especially the variable valve timing (VVT) versions in models like the S15 Silvia, these transmissions have closer gear ratios, improving acceleration and high-end speed. 
  • Vehicle Application:

    The SR20DET with a manual transmission was fitted in various Nissan models, including the Silvia, 180SX, and Pulsar GTI-R. 

  • Purpose:

    These manual transmissions were engineered for performance, providing drivers with greater control over gear changes for enhanced driving engagement. 

Key Characteristics:
  • Durability:

    SR20DET manual transmissions are known for their durability and are a popular choice for upgrades. 

  • Performance Focus:

    The manual transmission is favored in performance vehicles, such as those with the SR20DET engine, over automatic options. 

  • Upgradability:
    The components are often upgraded to enhance strength and shifting performance, especially for high-power applications.
The SR20DET engine was primarily paired with 5-speed manual transmissions, such as the FS5W71C, known for their strength, with later models, especially the S15 Silvia, also offering a 6-speed manual with closer ratios. Specifications like the engine displacement (1998cc), power output (ranging from 204-250 PS), and torque figures vary between different SR20DET versions (e.g., S13, S14, S15).
 

Common Manual Transmission Specifications
  • Transmission TypeTypically a 5-speed manual (most common). 
  • 6-Speed ManualAvailable on later, VCT-equipped engines, like those in the S15. 
  • Engine FamilyThe SR20DET is a turbocharged, 2.0-liter, DOHC, inline 4-cylinder engine, a variant of the SR20DE. 
Key Engine Variations
  • S13 (Early Models):
    Often featured 5-speed manuals, which are generally considered the strongest. 

  • S14 (Later Models):
    The blacktop SR20DET introduced a variable intake cam timing system (VCT), a new ECU, and a higher peak power of 162kW. 

  • S15 (Spec-R):
    Equipped with the more advanced 6-speed manual transmission for enhanced acceleration and top-end performance.
