I am just curious as to how many people have motors coming from Daunt?

Personally I can't wait til they get here! Just wondering who all would be installing at the same time.

I did, but no longer do. If I remember correctly, he only had about 6 people that had not asked for their deposit back.

Im getting my motor in from Daunttless as well....so is my S15 frontend. Hey yellowjacket...are you gonna do the motorswap yourself or have someone else do it? If you are having someone install it....where in Georgia are you gonna take yours to?

I am doing it myself. If I had to take it to someone I would probably contact a guy here at tech that has done them for quite a few people. After that there are a couple of shops I would hit.

Festino: I don't think the guy is in GT motorsports. He may be though. I don't really know him that well. He did swaps for several of the mods and the site admin over at 240sxforums. I think his screen name is masterbunta. He was a BMW tech for a while.

GrubyFngaz: I will be taking the car to where I used to work. They are still friends of mine and they really just don't care. The guy who does it doesn't even check to see if I have a cat.

Now if I could just find some more used parts here locally I would be good to go. I can even get all 4 calipers and lines from a 93 300z if I want for $100. I would just have to make sure the rims(stock alloys) will clear and find some rotors(which I need to replace any ways).

If you guys have any questions or wanna see the car afterwards or help drop it in just drop me a line. I've already got everything out of the car so I just need to install.

Hey thanks for the info. I tried searching their forums but there was nobody there named masterbunta. I knew of one guy named Garth who is a grad student and was a genius with motors. He always used to wear a bmw mechanic shirt down at the shop... i wonder if it was him...

Is that it for people who actually have motors on the way? Crazy stuff! I thought there would be more.

As far as the guy at tech who did Neo's and Abailey's swaps I think his first name is Dennis.(Not the same Dennis as unstable hybrids though)

Its getting soooooo close :) Can't wait to drive the car!
