Searching will yield many answers as to what needs to be done to put the motor in. Definitely not stock mani.

Just send it to me and you won't have to worry about anything. Looks like a nice looking purchase.

also I'm guessing that my stock s13 pipe isnt going to match up cause they didn't give me a downpipe and i lack intake piping too anyone know of a solution besides getting the actual parts im limited in resources, one of my friends said i can use an S14 KA pipe for the downpipe i looked for this but couldnt find anything on it... is there any truth to this?

do you plan to do the swap yourself? First search the forums, you will find tons of info. The harness can be a bit of a pain. Besides that check your motor mounts to see if they need replacement. Also check the clutch, see if it needs replacement. Throw on any mods/clean the engine bay etc before you swap in the engine and that way you wont hate life. You also need to look at your horsepower goals and figure out a game plan based on those numbers.

If you need anything you cant find from searching we are always here to help.
