That's a p10 we did a engine rebuild on. He's on infinity forums and p10 ones. Savag is his call name. Thx ;)

[catuned]

That's it! :)

[mr.vang]

so your shop does all kind of swap?

[catuned]

Yes sir. :)
Looking for a 2002 right now to put a s2000 motor in to.
Planing to do a sr20 for a customer too.
Among other things.

[Dj Buttchug]

cool. give me a job :)

[catuned]

^ need sales ppl.

Did you cut the seat belt strap out of the e36 and use it as a chain for you engine lift? I did the exact same thing when Ill pulled my s50 out of the e36. Lol. Awesome build man!

[catuned]

:) Got so many engines with chains on them seems it's easier to just grab a belt that no one will ever use and use it..

Thx

I've thought about sr20 swapped e30. Just cuz everyone and their grandma has parts lol. But I'm not on that mechanical/technical level yet.

[catuned]

Parts are a 1/4 of the price compared to the S50/52 or etc..
Takes time to know everything. Even I do not know it all. There are way smarter ppl on here.

[drummerchubbs]

What kind of budget would I need for a sr20 swap (if I do myself)? I know someone would have to fabricate mounts and wiring harness.

[catuned]

Nope.. Mounts we have ready to go under $300. Engines easy to get along with the transmissions. I would go with the last of the black tops with a 5speed as it holds up much better then a 6speed.
Custom drive line and wiring yes.
Rear end I would need to play with different ones to see which one would work out great.

[drummerchubbs]

How hard would the wiring be for that? Cuz I could get a black top and 5 speed pretty easily.

Sub'd awesome project.
