Ok for the price thats a good price as far as a jspec engine goes most range from 1500-3000 that I've seen but the I cant pull the link up for some reason but a list of other things you would need.
t2 drive shaft, the ecu wiring harness and is your car already a 5 speed or is it an auto?

[fcdriver]

Ok now I feel really stupid is this a n/a engine or a turbo? I would have edited my other post but nothing is working right for me atm....If its is a turbo you will need the things I posted above, sorry for the repost.

[89tracerman]

yes its a turbo and it has the ecu and all the wireing

[89tracerman]

oh and its a 5 speed and will the driveshaft from an 87 sport work (its the same size as the turbo (fat)

Well from what I hear the turbo shaft is some what different from the sport and the other n/as but I'm not totally sure, all I know is when i changed the engine in my turbo I had to change the shaft along with it because I went from turbo to n/a(due to the lack of funds to rebuild the turbo engine) but I used the same motor mounts that was in the turbo car. A performance radiator is always a good install to keep the engine cooler, I've heard of the stock plastic side casings breaking after the years pass, and if your car doesnt already have a lsd you might want to look into installing one in it. Oh almost forgot that you will need a turbo hood if you dont already have one. If your not sure if its a s4 or s5 just look at the oil squirter pump I can never remember what they're called but the s4 is mechanical and the s5 is electronic that is if you get it, just a little bit of side info sorry if I seem to be rambaling.

[89tracerman]

what radiator should i use and why do i need the turbo hood?

[fcdriver]

On the t2 engine the intercooler mounts on top of the engine unless your going to do a front mount intercooler you wouldnt really need it other then its aluminum and its a little lighter then the steel hood that comes on the n/a cars. But for the price I would go ahead and buy a carbon fiber hood priced are around 450-500, less weight and still has the t2 scoop.I'd check out rx7.com as far as radiators go or just look around for a good aluminum radiator.

The only CF TII style hood i saw was $600 and the scoop was centered.

To do the na to turbo swap, you can either use the stock transmission or you can use the TII tranny from engine back.

[89tracerman]

yes i know about the intercooler but cant i stay with the stock hood or the intercooler doesnt fit (SLEEPER) my car is an S4 with 4 lugnuts will an S5 fit with all they give me exept the driveshaft?

[drftk1d]

If you dont use the turbp tranny, yes, bu the na tranny is likely to break at higher hp levels.
