LJ speaks the truth. Import Intelligence is the only place to go for anything Nissan.

matt did my rb25 swap (9+ months w/o a single problem) and is currently working on my girl's car as well

you'd be foolish to have anybody else do your swap

y
SR20s don't use distributors, you do not want a CUT harness, if the things you listed are posted by the seller of the SR20 I wouldn't recommend buying it from them. Usually a "good" priced SR motor is a ****TY SR motor.

Do research on good engine importers. SR20Store (Marco), Heavy Throttle (Jeff), etc.

Other parts you will want to consider:
- FMIC
- Fuel pump
- Boost controller
- New engine mounts
- Sparkplugs
- New oil pan (if the stock one is dented)
- Thermostat
- New clutch/flywheel (easier to install with engine out of car)

I could list many more things you'd want to upgrade to "Do-it-right the first time". I'm just sick of posts on other forums with people bitching about SR motors crapping out, ****ty swaps, etc.

Call Matt, and be ready to spend money=you'll be happy in the long run

why would u pay someone to swap it? send the harness out to get it wired for a couple hundred bucks and swap it yourself. u can do it on any flat ground with a jack and hand tools. if you dont know anything about working on cars i wouldnt be looking to get a motor swap done.

That is why there are businesses to cater to this type of market.

A bit off topic, but does Matt @ Import Intel sell complete cars (already swapped in motor, trans, etc) for those of use mechanically challegend?

Id be interested in knowing what a nice 240/sr20det swapped car would sell for ready to drive???
