Ok i understand that know because i've seen it but i am talking about websites containg how to's and how to install engines as the (srdet20) and how to put on jdm silvia front front conversion stuff of that nature Because i would like to do all this stuff on my own with out paying someone to do it. It makes me feel like a real tuner and a good learning experience for me thats why i would like to know of these websites.

Ok ill help ya out and give you some sites. There isnt a site that really tells you Step by step how to do a engine swap but it gives you an idea of how to. Srswap.com is very helpful, this site has some very helpful how to's http://sr20.hybrids.jp/ Hope that can give you a start and its SR20DET not SRDET20

mmhmm..i was a honda fan but that was pretty long ago lol. They might have high revin engines and semi good HP but no torque man, one ride in a 240sx and a ride in a R32 GT-R changed my mind

With most insurance companys 240s arent considered sport cars so insurance aint that bad, try to get it under your parents name.

ive heard that DVD isnt good at all...doesnt give out the best info. I would think the FAQ over at srswap.com would be better
