S13 **_HATCH_** …please.and why not just do a sr20det? you’ll save a lot of loot, itll be easier to find, easier to mod, easier to work on, itll be a smoother swap as far as difficulty goes…arent the SRs significantly lighter than RBs too?

Yeah… see, generally people call this WTB, which is why when you throw out some odd ball term no one uses it’s confusing.

put a 2jz in a 240
no matter what swap you do in a 240, it’s still a fanboi chassis. they are good platforms, but still very “in”
if you want to do something “different”, go with another chassis.

yea definatly rb\>sr better design imo
and fuck s13 hatchs, coupes ftw, so much hotter.
and wtf are you talking about you couldent do anything to and ls1? throw in a cam and its like 50hp or something, get some custom headers, theres some more hp, then spray it. you can definatly mod it, hell, fucking boost it. its stupid to say you wana be boosted right away, youll have to dump a decent amount of money to be as fast as a stock ls1. the motor responds to mods so well, you can do any mods any fbod guy does
edit: everyone is still doing sr swaps kyle, but practically justy as many are doing rb’s
go ls1
