Good things come to those who wait...

put a turbocharged 13b-rew from the fd rx7 in there. 400whp easy.

and you'll even get better handling than with the s14.

:P

I know, a swap in general will make baby Jesus cry...

Let him cry, he's a baby for God's sake.

Thanks for all the support and kind words guys!

I will be swapping out the s14 for sure. It's a nice motor and all, but after driving my s52 swap for the past 3 years, I can't afford to give up all that torque! :p

Plus the s14 has been rebuilt with some nice pistons, valves, valve springs, new timing components, etc. I can get $4-6k no problem for the whole s14 swap, which will cover my aluminum s50 build, cams, euro headers, dyno tune, and a good amount towards the paint job. ;)

The m52 will be bored out to an s50, already have a complete bottom end for the parts. I will be putting nice sleeves in it to handle a possible blower later down the road. I will also be heli-coiling the block, getting ARP head studs, and a factory thickness cometic head gasket.

If I get bored of the NA power, which i know I will, I'll be putting an RMS stage 2 supercharger on the car. With the intake manifold, euro headers, and the Schricks, the blower would make some nice numbers! :twisted:

The car is also getting some 18" staggered Alpinas!!! :pimp:

He said he just wants to take the alum m52 block and make an s52 I thought...

If you do an M52, baby jesus WILL cry.

[Iain]

Keen to see the build of the M52 if you go that way. You going to sleeve the Alu block?

Would you go solid lifter conversion for the m52 head?

[Paukert11]

Dude that is sick. I want one.
