Just thought i'd share in case anybody's interested. Everything went smooth, the motor runs beautifully, and i am one happy man. Here's a list-

95 240sx SE94 s13 blacktop from Import IntelligenceGreddy:RSPL intercoolerturbo outletturbo timerprofec b spec 2 boost controllergaugestype RS bov (awesome) highly recommend

RSR exmag exhaust (perfect sound)Koyo Raddual permacool fanswalbro fuel pumpbattery in trunkskyline r32 wheels300zx front brakes w/ rotora rotors

i think thats it

I pulled the ka myself, and did all the prep work on the sr (waterpump,tstat, gaskets, etc) I live right near Import Intelligence, and because of time issues I had Matt the owner come and help me with the install and wiring. I highly, highly recommend this company for anything sr related. After everything was done, it fired right up and ran like a champ. I was ecstatic. I'm very happy that i decided to outsource the wiring job. WOW what a mess of wires.

I was very impressed with how strong the sr felt with just stock boost and turbo-back exhaust. I used to own an FD rx-7 with a few mods, and this thing feels almost as fast. I have yet to install the gauges or boost controller, but i can't wait to crank up the boost. The only thing i was disappointed about is the speed limiter around 120 All in all, well worth the time and money, no doubt about it. I definitely want to say thanks to all the people on this forum who took time to share all their sr wisdom that i spent hundreds of hours reading over the last year!!!

good to hear everything went smooth bro,and i wanted to second that comment on the type rs.it sounds mint, at any boost.i ran it on stock boost for a while,and i just upped it to 11 it sounds even better.

yeah the type RS sounds exactly the way i hoped it would ( i did listen to soundclips on some website) but it didnt disappoint me. I'll work on the pics for you guys, i've never transfered pics to my computer, but we'll see what happens. 777aaron, i paid 2650 shipped for my blacktop, i could've gotten a cheaper motorset elsewhere, but he promised me a clean motor, and he sure as hell delivered. It came with everything, even a nice air filter with the mafs attached. I really recommend Import Intelligence- very helpful people
