I think my engine has 260000+km.  
but need some money to fix the engine problem… dies off everytime I stop giving gas.  
but dont’ want to spend too much money on this engine… because it is going to die on me soon… so thinking of getting a swap to make it a real S14  
but the max I can pay for a swap with engine for $2300

dies off when you let off gas. You have a vacuum leak. Plug all your hoses back in.

Yeah doesn’t sound like your engine is shot. Could be a vacuum leak, or plugged cat, bad o2, most likely cause that i have seen for car dieing when letting off the gas is actually the alternator being bad. I would definately do a compression test if you haven’t already. If the compression test is good then your problem is elsewhere.

yeah I agree with Varun, if you can’t come up with the money to do a “1 time only swap” just forget about doing it now and save up, or learn to do the swap yourself.

Your car from the pics don’t look like a lemon, so I am pretty sure you don’t want your swap to be a lemon.

We can do it too but like Varun said properly done your looking at 5-6k.

Have a look here it’s alot more to think about then just dropping a motor in.
