Hey everybody,

I'm new to this board but have been doing some real research into the SR20DET. I'm going to be buying the engine in probably 8 months or so and am lucky enough to know someone who will install it for free

Anyway, prices for the various engines should be around:
All RWD Engines w/Tranny no ECU because you should get one from Jim Wolf Technologies. Serious HP gains from their ECUs and they are not that much more...

Here you go:
S13 $2100
S14 $2700
S15 $3400

The shop that quoted me these prices said installation would be around $1200. It's worth noting that most people recommend getting an S13 as the starter unit, since you're putting a new engine anyway, you can save some upfront to put into the engine. Also, get a DOHC version S13 (91-94) because the engine is almost a direct bolt in for these. The 89-90 models will require re-routing of the power steering cables among other things.

Anyway, hello again to everyone, and let's see some more SR20DET 240s on the road!!

BTW, the lastest issue of Super Street has an awesome 180SX with the S15 silvia front end on it. Made me drool....

Later!
Justin
