Mine is in the shop too. It's getting the SR20DET put in. I just found out that the Fidanza flywheel I got is too f'in small. It's like 210mm. The RPS clutch I got is about 240mm. My mechanic needs the loner car back, so the car is getting put together with the stock flywheel and the RPS clutch. I'm kinda pissed about having to pull everything apart again in a year or whenever I can afford the vLSD and labor. On the bright side of things, I could very well have an SR20 powered S13 by this weekend. :ylsuper

Ok, the car is still at the shop, with no change. The guy ran into problems with another car and didtn' get to mine. He said he will do it Monday. I am going out of town Friday though, so he is going to do it and keep it locked up in his shop all week until I get back next Saturday. At least I will get a nice welcome home gift :)

I do for the most part. Unfortuantely I did not have the time, place nor tools to undertake something as big as swapping an engine.

I have done everything to my car, including the suspension and brake upgrades, and would have done this, if I had had time, and the guys that were going to help had time. I am tired of waiting, I have the money, so I might as well just have it done by the best.

I don't blame you! I try to do everything myself, but I'll take it to a shop if I can't do it right. My baby deserves only the best!

PS let us know how it turns out, you probably won't be sleeping much tonight :P

I might as well sleep, my car is in the garage outside, the exact same way she always has been. The swap isn't until Monday. I am going to have to have my parents take the car over there I guess cause I am going to be out of town. It will be a nice welcome home present though, wont it :)
