$2500 short block (no heads) brand new from dealer

heads will prolly be about another $1500 (dealer mark-up)

then u need wire harness, ECU, mounts, the tranny (Trust reinforced theirs to handle all the HP), custom drive shaft and rear diff...

currently, no one does the swap (duhh) but I asked a few people at mah friends shop, and they said it prolly run a high premium (enuff to rival the cost of a Neo R34 RB26DET, the RB26 that came with the 3rd stage cam shaft system... if u can find the Neo RB26)

but since the company I wrk for is gonna to the NA swap in the S14 (Ab-Flug Japan) I'll update u guys on the progress and how well it wrks

hehe, I found this post finally!

the 350 swap is almost complete... their thinking about drafting one of Signal Auto's drivers to test it out (if our CEO doesn't want to "play" with the S14 after swap completion)... either him or the King of Drifters from like yr 2000 (the guy who owns the 85 Levin) its gonna be a mad crzy swap when its complete....

should I ask them to sponsor me on a USDM 350 swap? lol

I wish I could see the swap (seein that the swap is being dun in Japan lol ) from wut I gathered on the last call confrence, their gonna let the motor run idle to let parts slooowly break-in, then they'll take it on the road for real world break-in.

But ya, I think the guy from Signal Auto would be a better driver, seeing as that they have crzy skills behind the wheels of Nissans

Will post back when I get more info... turbo the bad azz out to 800 HP??? or leave it NA??? CEO dunno wut to do later on... advice peeps? to turbo?... or not to turbo? that is the question, whether tis nobler in the mind....

ya I jus got up and Im bored like hell hahahhaha!!!
