Are these good prices for my 240?

[jemil118]

All right here is the deal,

I am doing the all mighty sr20det swap in my 95 240, I wanted to check with you guys to make sure I wasn't getting screwed on these prices.

S13 Engine Swap: 2800Apex N1 Duel Catback exhaust: 600Greddy Downpipe: 190HKS turbo timer type-0: 115 w/ harnessGreddy Aluminum Lightweight Pulley System: 225300zx Fuel Pump: 279JUN Chromoly Lightened Flywheel: 425ACT Clutch: 389CTC Custom Intake: 189Blitz SS Blowoff Valve: 350Greddy RSPL Intercooler: 950Greddy Profec B Boost Contoller:340

Total for the Parts: about 7 grandTotal for labor: about 1700

I am doing this all at once, how much horsepower do ya'll think I'll be pushing?Am I getting good prices?They will also install a boost gauge at no extra cost.

This is being done by CTC Motorsports out of Dallas.They're the ones that did that black S14 sleeper in Import Racer

If you're doing the s14 blacktop, i'd guess about 300hp? The pulley/flywheel/exhaust/fmic will really boost your HP numbers. Good luck!!

I actually wanted to steer clear of the VVT so I am going with the s13 redtop, which I will eventually upgrade the turbo and do some headwork on.

$2800 for a redtop is a bit pricey. $600 for the N1 dual is also a bit pricey. Everything else looks ok.

[jemil118]

I've seen the s13 redtop elsewhere for 2400 dollars, but I have to pay 3-400 dollars in shipping, so I figured that it would probably come out the same. I was wondering about the exhaust myself at http://www.sr20detperformance.com for 530, but they say that shipping is expensive, because of the size of the boxm, and that the only shipping available is 3 day air. So that price, might not be as bad as I thought.

CTC did not build the black 97 that was in Import Tuner like the article stated. CTC did build and install the badass turbo kit on William's car and did an excellent job. William and I did all the rest of the work on the car including the motor swap, all polishing, all the bolt-on's, and the other custom stuff like the custom radiator, solid transmission mount, and a few other things that aren't mentioned. I have no doubt that CTC can do a SR swap and do it cleanly, but I just wanted to clear up a major mistake the article made.

[Megaseth]

where is CTC located at? im just north of dallas. i'd like to go by there and see their shop and get some info from them.

[97 Silvia]

CTC is located right behind Texas Instruments where I-75 and 635 cross. Their exact address is on their website http://www.ctcmotorsports.com

The Apexi N1 Dual should be around $540.... both nopi and optionsauto.com have it for that price.

[jemil118]

Yea, but it's going to be expensive to ship because of the size of the box.

[nametakennow]

Getting it from where? Heavy Throttle?

[jemil118]

I think it was http://www.sr20detperformance.com Hold on let me check...

[nametakennow]

You're in TX, and sorry, its Boost Factor that's there, anyway, I would find them cause you can go back if somethings f-edup.

[jemil118]

Never heard of Boost Factor. 97 Silvia, who is William? do you own a tuner shop also?

[jemil118]

Megaseth, next time you go into Sherman, you should look me up...you are from Bells, right?

[Megaseth]

no, im in The Colony. i was up in bells for some fund raiser. but yeah, i'll look for ya the next time i go through there. we have family in OK and we go that way to get there.

[jemil118]

What fundraiser was that for? Something for school? I have some family and friends that work the BISD

Hey Daunt...can you get the prices for any of these and email me or IM me?

[97 Silvia]

No I dont own a shop, but I do SR20DET swaps out of my garage. William's the owner (well now the previous owner) of the black 1997 240SX w/ SR20DET motor that was featured in last months Import Tuner magazine... the one you called the sleeper in your original post. William and I did the swap on the car 2 years ago at my house. This is VERY important... do NOT take your car to Boost Factor, believe me on this one...too many horror stories from unsatisifed customers of Boost Factor. If you really want a good shop to work on your car then go to CTC.

no, it was some company picnic our JROTC group worked.

Okay, I was really impressed by that car, even though I had considered a 240 for several months, thats the car that really put me over the top for the Silvia. I just want to make sure that the shop that I'm doing it w/ has everthing together, I checked out their shop, and was impressed by the number of 240's that sat outside their shop, and the number of Supra's that sat inside....
