Looking for OC Motor Swap Shops! KAE to KADE

[Leash]

Looking for a shop that has experience in ka24e to ka24de motor swaps in an s13 that can get it done fast.

We (NismoKnight-Andrew & I) are stuck in a situation where we really need to get the old dying KA24E motor out an a running KA24DE in ASAP. How its been running in the condition that its in, I have no clue. We are still very much considering RB-Motoring but they won't be free until next month and that's cutting it really close, so I'm looking around for more possible options.

I just want to know if anyone else knows of any shops around the OC area that have the complete swap available, installed. I have gotten a few quotes price between 800 to 1100 (that also including the 5 speed swap labor since we already have all the parts). I'm hoping to stay around that range.

I know you guys talked to Steve. What did he have to say? Did you ever get Nick's number?

Come on Leash, you should know.

Yup, we did all that already. Steve actually convinced Andrew to go with the DE swap instead, and time wise its a better move. As much as we would love to have Steve to do the swap, the shop doesn't have all the parts ready and would have to locate them. We need to get this done asap, and we don't have time to locate all the parts without breaking the bank, especially since we will have to pull a loan out.

Andrew for the time being is using my car, but since I go back to school soon, he'll be stuck without a way to get to work.

We just talked to a shop today that has everything and can have it all done in 1-2 days and that we could have it done next week.

Thats cool.

If Andrew needs a ride or anything to work, hit me up and I'll see what I can do.

Though I must admit that my DE is having some issues as well. Still performing top notch, but it needs some internal stuff replaced to stop me from blowing blue smoke.

It was bad today when I was trying to park at work.And damn, when Andrew gets his swap, he'll be faster than I. lol.
