well a lot of people will tell you to search, but im gonna be nice and give u some options. You have many options 3 differents SR motors, S13 blacktop and redtop, S14 blacktop (notchtop), and S15 blacktop. Or you can drop in an RB motor RB20, RB25, RB26. Or just stick with the KA and turbo charge it. The most expesive swaps would prolly be the RB26 and S15 motor swap....the RB26 will prolly take up all your 10gs and then some.

even the S13 redtop swap can get pricey. I've easily spent 7g in parts not including the motor itself. I mean, yeah alot of the stuff i didnt need, but trust me, youll WANT some stuff and you wont move on until you have it, then youll realize you need something to go with whatever you bought, etc etc etc. It's neverending. Expect that 10g's to be gone and then some more out of your pocket.

My (engine) mods were about 7-8k with engine and labor. Covers all the basics and gives you room for future upgrades. That's what I suggest. Reliable and repectable

if you get an RB you might as well do all wheel drive so get the whole front clip...s15....yeah you get 250hp@6000 rpms but what you dont know is that the 6 speed transmission has a different drive shaft and will not bolt right into your car...you'd have to find the drive shaft too....my suggestion is the s14 motor swap and get some goodies to go with it...and for your sake invest in some hella good brakes...ive seen too many people have the power but cant stop it so i end up buy parts off of them:-) and your going to want an LSD differentional to send power to both wheels rather than just one....and save some money just in case something goes wrong....i did my swap a month ago and stuff has been popping up since then...small stuff but still time and money consuming....
