Okay,

I am supposed to have 7000 bucks. 3000 transferred to my account. $4000 cheque sent to me. This money is supposed to be used for ordering and purchasing the SR. Unfortunately, due to people on their *** acting so slowly, I will get my payment in at least one week. As we all know, there might be a SR shortage in Japan. I cannot wait to put an order on. I want a decent s13 at reasonable price. Damn, if the money is here, I will place the order.

I want to place an order, but seems like I have to wait another week to put an order. In addition, how much do you guys think 97-98 Redtop would be? How long do you think it will take to get a clip from any s13?

I really want to, but you see, I live in Canada. :(

Maybe I will talk to him and see. I know HT doesn't send engines to Canada.

Nice car, btw! Your SR should be here soon.

BTW, since I am sitting here with money that I don't even have, I wanna ask something.

My setup:GREX oil panHKS Type-S intercoolerBlitz Nur SpecBlitz DownpipeApex'I BOV

Is that an alright set up for the beginning project? I am thinking of getting the Nismo mounts to make the swap more refined, but I believe the stock mounts should be good for a long while. What do you guys think?

Also, should I use the stock hot pipe or should I buy a premade metal one that elminates teh crappy stock rubber hoses?

My KA has been leaking from the gallery plugs and oil pressure sensor. Does the SR have this kind of problem? Should I reseal the gallery plugs with loctite?

looks like a good setup. If your engine moves around in the engine bay when you give it some throttle you probably need new mounts.
