1. the stock will slip at that level....

2. upgraded turbo, manifold, boost controller, piping, blow off valve, downpipe, exhaust, upgraded fuel pump, injectors , ecu upgrade, intercooler

3. $4000-7000 + motor and transmission and install of motor (1300), and install of all those parts ( 2000 est.)

no prob.

3. Generally closer to 6000 if you want to do it right, and thats not including the cost of the motor.

If you brought a s13 240 w/ ka, and asked for a 350whp sr setup, figure on spending about 10k-15k total

These are not new motors, and by that I mean the clutches have already been abused. Also it is much easier to put in a clutch with the motor out of the car. I am swapping a S13 Blacktop into a S14, Jeff at Heavy Throttle said that he will be able to walk me through the A/C hookup when I come to that point. If you plan to upgrade the turbo the S13 SR20DET is the way to go. The disadvantage is the wiring is hard to do, but thats why I am having Heavy Throttle do it.

I know they dont make it for nissans yet, but how much do those AEM EMS go for anyway? Oh, about the S14 wiring, its not as hard as it seems. People just make them look harder then they are sometimes. Sure, its more wiring to work on then the S13, but nothing that an average monkey with a stick cant handle. The a/c has always worked, just not so many figured out how to integrate it into the S13 harness. If you had a FSM or some type of guide like mitchell on demand or something, you can easily wire the a/c up yourself. The reason being is because S13 chassis, the a/c wiring goes up through the fuse box wiring area and into the harness. The S14 runs the wires from the inside of the car and passes through the harness. That is why the major difference. A S14 chassis with S13 harness will need some type of intermediate harness or "sub" harness made for the areas that the S13 harness doesn't cover. That is why it's considered 'hard'. I'm up for the challenge when I do mine.:icesangel
