In SO CAL? Try Motorex, they do SR/Silvia swaps

http://www.motorex.net

edit: btw, they'll do extra stuff too, they take care of all the stuff.

They quoted me a full silvia front end swap (EVERYTHING) with motor, for 5k

blitz intercooler, hks exhaust, hks hotpipe/bov, blitz downpipe, blitz gauges, greddy boost controller, blitz turbo timer, apexi air filter

If I was doing mine again, with a slightly higher budget, that is where I would start.

You know there is a meet this weekend right?

And I didn't want to say anything, but you live in SoCal.. the heart of the industry. You don't have to pay for shipping on an SR20.

Nah, Motorex is in Gardena, IIRC, probably 2 hours+ from you.
