I was loking at TigerJapanese.com and they have a Black Top SR20 for $1,350.00. Which I feel would be more inexspensive then boosting the SOHC KA motor that I have Now.

Visually I am thinking about going with mostly 180sx part on this vehicle.

Parts list / Wish List will consist of....

PerformanceSR20Det SwapGT28RS Ball Bearing TurboSynapsis BOVJWT Fuel Rail KitJWT ECUJWT High Flow Oil PumpNISMO Adjustable Fuel Pres. RegulatorARC Oil CapARC Spark Plug CoverARC Oil Pan

Exterior180SX Type X Rear spoiler180SX Type X Tail Light ConversionFull B-Sport Body Kit

DrivetrainSpec D Clutch Kit180SX LSD

InteriorNRG Quick Relese HubSparco Steering WheelNismo Short ShifterNismo Shift KnobSparco Seats

If you're buying from tiger japanese, add ECU and SR20DET wiring harness to your list. They are NOT included unless explicitly specified in the description.

Sounds like a fun project reguardless though!! Good luck!

I already have them both. Got them off of the guy who is selling me the car. He thought about doing the swap and was given them by a friend who swapped in an rb26 into his sileighty. Thanks for the heads up though man.

I got Lucky with this buy. Guy is in the Military and has a 92 Supra TT. So this is just change to him. He sold me the car for $600 with the extra ECU and Wire Harness for an SR swap.

Cons about the car is Cracked Dash, Auto, Needs Fuse Under Hood($17), and Faded Paint.

All Things I was going to work On Anyways.

Paint Ideas......Lexus IS300 Charcoal Grey MetallicMilano Red Or the Lexus Off White

Sounds like a sweet deal!

I'm personally going with flat black on my project. (picked it up, non runner with wierd engine problem, for 100 bucks!!!) But of your three choices, i'd deffinitely go with the charcoal grey metallic!

I just recently picked up a 1990 240sx with a blown motor for 1k, the compression ratios were 150, 0, 0, 0 lol but it is really nice other then that and the fact that the spoiler was took off so there are holes in the trunk...I bought another KA24E because it was cheap until i can save up for a sr20 so now im working on dropping it in but i was thinking about doing the X style for the exterior and for the paint between Matte Black, Smoke Grey, and maybe if it looked nice a two tone matte black on top and touch up the red paint on it already on the bottom.
