Dudes if i decide to keep my s15 is there anyone capable of helping me do an engine swop in dbn? Odr wants mor or less 60 to 70k for rb25det swop with parts and labour but thats way out my budget . What would costs be like if i got the engine and gearbox n management. Dnt wna spend n arm n leg. Can get the engine and box for near sr20det engine n box price so thinkin rb now. I want bone stock conversion standard clutch, engine, etc to cut costs n then expand on it at a later stage

Well it may make my shipping more affordable if a bunch of you want parts and want to share the container price with me

Go SR, dont be another statistic..... (no offence to anyone with rb's in their sbodies, there's just so many of them in SA)

If you were in CPT I wouldve given you a hand when I was back.

That is good price...but I'm all about balance, power to weight, response, handling. But that's just a personal preference

Good luck with the job, put a thread up in Artciles so we can watch one of the few S15's come along
