Ya I wanted a sorta newer engine with less miles and my friend hooked me up pretty good on it so I went with it. I just cant wait to get it running. I just have a few more things I need to order.

Thanks for all the good comments

I have everything I need for the swap. Just need to get my wiring harness done. But Im gonna order silvia side skirts, need new carpet, new dash (mines cracked), and seats. I wanna go with s15 seats, just waiting to try and find a good deal. Also need a rear lip, but haven't decided which one I want yet. After I get all my exterior peices Im getting the whole car painted at my work for free so I just need to decide on which color I want to go with.
