S15, one thing I have noticed on this board is that you better not ask a question unless you have thoroughly searched for it. Some people here just can't seem to ignore you when you ask a redundant question, they have to give you chit about it. In a way I understand their position, but I also feel for those getting slammed, as I am just learning all this stuff, too.

So, just spend some time doing some searches to find the answers to your questions, and learn that way. There is a LOT of info to be learned on this site. Don't burn your bridges now. If you can't find an answer to your questions, then say that you did a search, and still have not been answered to your satisfaction, and people will be glad to help you.

HAHA, well "complete ****ing moron " (you said it, not me), if you actually read the previous posts, you will realize that we were answering technical questions. But its almost as if you did not even take a look at them, since you seemed to dismiss the information as unimportant. I did not just spit out facts and numbers for my own health. Yes, I am quite sure I know more than you, this is why I was giving you the facts, but you kept throwing them back in my face as if you already knew everything.

First off turbocharged cars do not use headers. Secondly, CAI? on a turbocharged car the air is heated up quite a bit when it runs through the compressor side of the turbo. This is why we have intercoolers. So even if you pump in cold air, its still hot as hell when it goes through the turbo.Third, an intercooler is absolutely necessary if you want to achieve 300 rwhp. Running the T28 at 18 psi with the stock sidemount IC is asking for failure somewhere along the line. Fourth, I still have no idea what your fetish with the 6 speed is.Fifth, just because on the heavy throttle website it says you can reach 300 rwhp doesnt mean you should just install the stock engine and crank up the boost, you might want to do a couple of precautionary mods like a headgasket or a fuel pump. No point in blowing the engine rather than being safe.If I had $20000 to build a 240SX I would by an S13 SR everyday of the week. It can just take more for less money. If I blow one up, oh well, replace the block for $1000. If you blow up an S15 then chances are you will spend another $5500 for a whole new engine set.Finally, remember, just because the S15 SR20DET is rated at 250hp, that is not at the wheels, its probably closer to 220 hp to the wheels. And definately take a look at what ItzGenX wrote up there, people often pass that info about VVT and torque up, thinking they know what he is saying when they really dont.

im spent, im going to bed

If being different is a big thing for you, you might want to look into the rb20det and rb25det swaps. They're cheaper than the s15 swaps, and aren't as popular as s13/14 swaps. there's a lot of info on this site about those engines, too.

you can get the rb25det professionally installed for about 4K, and about 3K to buy the front clip, which includes everything you need, other than a few minor things like a driveline. Even that can be added for a small price. VLSD as well. The 20 is even cheaper, but doesn't make as much HP, obviously.

Just go here, and you'll find everything you need to know:

well, that's the expensive one. The smaller ones are not so bad.

Yeah, if you have any questions on the RB swap, Night is more then willing to answer them. He is very great with this and will also answer repetetive questions as it seems. He also sells everything needed for the swap for a very great price compared to Unstable(not bashing, just dont like their "mystery" motor mounts for 1k)

here's the other link I was looking for. This should answer most of your questions about the RB swaps.

Quote »Of course if anybody has ever attempted a search they would have found this information out, especially since this gets posted about once a month with all the other noob inquiries.[/quote] and if they use the search they will find thisQuote »The S15 may have an extra gear but its in the same space as the 5 gear trannies and could be prone to failure at lower power levels than the 5 speed. If you get the S15 you also need to make sure you acquire the S15 driveshaft and get the speed sensor which is mounted on the differential (which you also need). You need to make a fabricated transmission crossmember for the 6 speed. I dont think you would have hood clearance issues but an S13 would.[/quote] first of all the transmission is longer than the S13/14 i'm not saying that the gears are differnet,because i don't know. i haven't taken them apart. but the case is longer.i know i had them sitting side by side for awhile. and also the transmission mount thing. it's not true. i bolted my s15 transmission to my s14 without modifying anything.my point is this. as more members join, or more people gain new knowledge. the collective information of the forum changes. so keep asking questions noobs. and if some people don't like it they can choose to ignore it.ben
