None of it is really worth jack.

Only real parts off a 20B that's worth it is the e-shaft and center-front "side" iron.
Everything else can be replaced by parts from almost any 13B.

Fuel injectors...
Primaries are the same as FD 13B-REW primaries - 550cc, red top, high impedence, side feed.
Secondaries are the same as Kouki FC 13BT (any) fuel injectors - 550cc, red top, high impedence, top feed.

Stock (twin) turbos are crap.

Most of your parts are only valuable to another 20B owner who needs to replace those stock parts.
Almost all of us 20B owners have modified 20B's which don't need those parts or have swapped over to other (13B) parts to fit our vehicles.
For example, we normally swap over FC 13BT or FD 13-REW water pump housings, water pumps, brackets, alternators; replacement 20B parts are a PITA to source from Japan.

ECU is useless, as you also need the wiring harness and coils - most times, the coil packs are not included with J-spec imported engines, which makes the stock EFI useless.

Automatic tranny?
Do you really have to ask?

I might be interested.. But will not pay much. I already got a spare auto tranny just in case and few other things. If you just want to make room and get something out of them, let me know.

I'll give you $80 shipped for the turbos. Don't need manifold.

just a question about 20B turbos

I checked them briefly, but it looks like center (CHRA) of front turbo is same like CHRA of FC3S turbo...is that correct? Or maybe even front compressor? If so, could atleast some of 20B twins be used like replacement parts for FC3S turbos? Of course, hotside is different and compressor cover probably too, have not checked the rest.....

To me it look like both turbo are bigger than the stock twins off the FD. It is too cold to even go in my garage right now.

The FC turbo is a Hitachi HT-18.
I believe the stock FD's are HT-12's.
The Cosmo 20B turbos are an HT-15 and HT-10?
The FC turbo should still be bigger than any of them.

Front bearing housing is the same as a FC turbo. Secondary bearing housing and turbine wheel is the same as pre-99 FD twins. Other than that most everything else is different.

Can you mate the 20b twin turbo directly to the FD? Minor Mod? No mod?
