I have an S14, 95 240sx. I am planning on doing an SR swap but i'm a little confused on what one to get? being that I have an s14, would it be better to get an S14 Engine? Or will the red top or black top S13 engine swap right in? Which one would be the best/easiest swap? I have been told that the red top is a better engine than the S14 black top? why would this be true? but if it is going to be a pian in the *** to swap the s13 into a s14 ... then would I be better off just getting the S14 Engine swap kit? Is there more potential with the S13 red top than the S14 blacktop? Or would the S14 Blacktop have better potential being that it has a t28 BB turbo and all? I am all new to this so please don't flame me:help Just trying to gather all the info I need before the swap!

THANX

use the search button!!, now that you are nice and toasty:icesangel , lets see. if you are going to leave the motor stock after you swap, the s14 has more potential, but if you are going to upgrade like most owners, the S13 is the better choice. there are plenty of people who can assist in the wiring of the s13 motor in the s14 car, when the need arises.

Its all about future planning. Both motors bolt right in. The wiring needs to be done on both swaps. So send the wiring out to HT or somewhere else. I chose the S13 Blacktop because I will be upgrading the turbo. More potential because of the high port head.
