um...well im in a some what good mood. Yes, thousands of other people like the S15 body. It cost $$$$$. Trust me when i say that the idea is far from original. Most people do the S15 front end conversion which will cost more than $1500+ easy... (<----thats just for parts, assuming u went cheap...). The motor is a different story. Since the S15 came with a 6-speed transmission, most people opted for the 5-speed. I do remember a lot of my japanese co-workers telling me that the stock 6-speed transmission was pretty weak. Much weaker than the S13/14 transmission. Hope this helps....oh....

BTW, please search...and if your new, and have an idea about a 240s....they've most likely been covered and beaten to death. <---- see that horse...yeeaaaaa...just like that.

heavythrorrle i believe says you need to basically change your whole rear end because the speed sensor is in the differencial. id rather probably get s15 injectors and the s15 turbo, instead of getting a full swap

I think 6 speed is weak for DRAG, launching hard, but not for touge, autocross, or drift. Usually drive shaft have to be change to custom made for $300, or relocate the mounting bracket for the S15 stock drive shaft. Also the wiring is the hardest part. You have to get the S15 cluster and S15 diff as well to obtain functional speedo. The best thing they are LOW MILEAGE.
