Hey guys I'm a newbie with newbie questions :rolleyes: I hope someone can seriously help me with...

I'm gonna get a bluebird, and I'll need to do the same mods to get it how I want it.
1993 Nissan Bluebird ARX-G ATTESA automatic SR20DE 4WD ~730

So I was trying to find out would it be easier/cheaper to do the engine and tranny swap one time, or do a tranny swap and get a turbo kit... :uhoh:

THIS__________OR__________THIS

engine __________________turbo kit
tranny __________________ tranny
clutch pedal etc.__________ cluth pedal etc.
installation _______________ installation


which one is better? cuz I'm thinking with the bluebirds SR do you have to reinforce the block, new pistons, fuel injectors etc?

I'm a high school kid on a tight budget tryna get the best bang for the buck.

If you want a manual, then you should buy a manual.
It will cost a lot to convert it from auto, as you need a lot of parts.

nobody? not even another suggestion? Lurkers :(

I found some SSS Attesa's for cheap and I know they have a lot of understeer, so what suspension upgrades/mods can you do to kill the under? Sway bars?

a u13 is a very upright/tall car, so lowering it as much as u dare will help to get the centre of gravity down to towards the road. and dont be tight and just get springs, get suitable shockers or the ride will be bad. this will reduce body roll, and will make it look much much better. apart from that, a strut brace to sharpen it up some more and good shoes always help.
