where r the motors?

im not trying to be stupid or nothing....but where do you guys find your engines at? i just bought my 89 240 two days ago and want to do an engine swap but was wondering where the best place to get these engines at is.... oh... i also saw a skyline motor for sale on ebay only going for 1200 bucks, made me drool

and the car stock is still badass...but id love to double or triple the horses... i have to beat my buddys mustang with a built 308 in it!!!!!!!!!

Hmm Iowa. Your kinda in the middle, so shipping from either coast will work for you. I have several swaps arriving, SR's, RB's, and CA's. Won't be here until mid-july tho we are all sold out now. I think the $1200 clip is a automatic I saw that one earlier.

Hi, prices vary alot due to the Yen rate, it's been from 102Y=$1 up to 116=$1 in the last month Typically here's the price ranges vary with KM, condition, and extras, for complete front clips(like turn key dash, intercooler, piping, cluster, and all, no body parts)

R32 RB20DET 5sp $1800
R33 RB25DET 5sp $3500
S13 SR20DET Redtop 5sp $2500
S13 SR20DET Blacktop $2700
S13 CA18DET 5sp $1800
S13 SR20DE Non-Turbo 5sp $1295

The RB20 is probably your best bang for the buck. If you want the RB25 you better be here when it's being unloaded off the truck, they go that fast. The SR20's go about as fast. I can ship a clip to Iowa for about $550 or we can pull the swap and ship the whole thing for about $300.

soon as I know what we are getting and how many I'll post in the vendor section. Our last order's Nissan's were GONE in 4 days so you'll need to be ready to jump if you want a clip.

you want to make sure and get a clip, wherever you buy from. I love the e-mails I get from people who want to buy the harness and computer from my 1/2 cars because they bought a "bargain" incomplete swap somewhere else
