Hey guys i have a couple of stupid questions i wanna do a red top swap in a s13 and i was wondering how expensive it would be…for example if i had a mint s13 and a red top with the tranny, wiring harness and computer, would i only need a intercooler, exhaust and a larger fuel pump or is there more to it like tunning…etc thanks guys
Does your mother still dress you too?
Search man.
depends on how good you want your swap to be.
if you dont want to use a hose running across your engine bay then youll need a new rad and hoses. since you have the motor out then i would seriously recommend throwing in a new cluctch and tob…stuff like that
id say factor in at LEAST an extra thousand bucks into yout budget
Intercooler - u can use a stock Sr sidemount setup or buy a fmic setup.
exhaust - u need a 3" downpipe , 3" cat/testpipe , 3" exhaust to get the most out of ur SR.
Fuel pump - u need a bigger pump … walboro 255 , or u can use a 300zx , q45 or J30 fuel pump … dont bother with the sr fuel pumps as they are unreliable.
Tuning - U dont need any ATM , when u get bigger injectors , change maf etc then you need tuning.
Do some research , source all the parts yourself or u’ll end up spending $5 - $6 K on a setup u could have had for half as much.
