I’m looking for a highly reputable shop for my swap. I’m looking to put a RB25DET in my S14. I can get the engine from anywhere, but if anyone has a good engine source let me know as well. Cheers. ---

good luck, there may be only a few shops that have completed that swap (in ontario), and of them yours may be they’re 2nd, 3rd… one comes to mind, no comment on they’re reputation as I have never met/dealt with them [http://www.driftfactory.com/dfcar.php](http://www.driftfactory.com/dfcar.php) (cut/paste) ---

Yea, I realize the swap is rare. I don’t really mind driving down to the states for it, but if I can get it done up here why not. SR’s are way to overdone. ---

My plans for the car are relatively common other than the engine. I can’t afford a RB26DETT, so next step down is the RB25DET. As far as body goes its gonna become a S14.5 with the S15 front end (common). I don’t mind rwd at all and have no need for awd just yet. ---

Do you have the custom mounts or are you using the stock Xmember? Mods? Why not DIY? ---

He is not a shop, but he is highly reputable. PM canadiandrifter240sx and see if he is up to the challenge… Sample [http://www.son240sx.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13437&start=0](http://www.son240sx.ca/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13437&start=0) ---

i wouldn’t trust any shop with a swap… most don’t know wtf they are doing, and take FOREVER. ---

I would get custom mounts. I have no problem doing body work myself, but the only engine experience I have is with motorbikes and disiels. It would however be hella more cheaper to do it myself. Possibly could afford a RB26DETT then… lol… I will PM canadiandrifter240sx, and talk to him as well. Thanks for the replies. ---

Next Level Automotive in Etobicoke? Also as far as the motor mounts, transmission mounts, crossmember and driveshaft, they are all sourced from McKinney Motorsports. ---

I would welcome the challenge but it would not be a week end project. Something like this may take a bit and proper prep is important. There is nothing worse then starting a project you can’t finish because you do not have proper parts.
