FEELER - The ultimate weekend SR swap

So I've been toying with the idea of doing a swap and selling my SR.
Who would be interested in basically an ultimate weekend SR swap kit?

I would include the motor, gearbox, dicktator + harnass, FMIC and piping, and exhaust, basically all you need to pull out a CA and drop in an SR.

The motor did 150rwkw on its last dyno at 0.5 bar and will have a fresh set of bearings in the bottom end before I sell.

Was thinking R10k? Sound reasonable?

OH FOR F&KS SAKE!!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Now suddenly you decide you want to do this....after my CA has been stuffed and standing for more than a month. And now i've started to order parts for rebuilding my CA!!!!! Dammit.

I might still be able to make a plan, will let u know.

Dude if you are going RB I wish you luck .

I personally think its a bad idea, you have a very strong car there that just needs to have the management system replaced.

Just remember Murphy is out there and if things go wrong it will be very very expensive

I dont really like RB's, they are awesome and all, but remind me too much of a CA so i'm not going that route.

I have something in mind, like I said its a feeler for now. The swap I have in mind has a large capital outlay to get the motor fitted, but the recurring and modding costs stay quite cheap at least till 300kw or so and I dont plan going that high short term.
