For one thing, if you want your speedometer to work you need the rear differencial from an S15 (IIRC). And you would probably need a custom driveshaft also.

the 6 spd is also weaker from what i have read. so you might want to look that up before you make a final decision.

For you no. Search please this topic has been covered many many many times. If you want to spend 2-3k more for 50hp and 1 extra gear then by all means pls get a S15 engine. No real benefit, but searching before you have another question would be a great life changing one.

The one other benefit would be less miles since it is a newer engine...... might be important to some.
