did you tell him that the SR20DET is the stock motor for the 240SX in Japan? its not really mix & match, its just putting in what the car was meant to have.

yea he knows that the sr20det is the japan 240sx motor but he still doesnt like the idear of pulling out your motor and adding a new one in, he is convinced that the car will not run the same!

Did you tell him the motor bolts right on and that there are shops who will give you a WARRANTEE on your engine if you have them install it? BTW just curious how old are you and what kind of car does your dad own?

you won't nessecarily make the car better..... it will be faster......but a stock SR20DET is not as reliable as a KA-T from what I hear. If you want a car that starts every time you turn the key, has the least downtime, or takes less scheduled maintenace......run a KA-T!

here's the deal...
it's your car... get it looked at when you buy it, find out what problems it has, and find a way to convince the rents that it's cheaper to swap in newer motor... also, inform them that the motor is newer, has less miles, blah blah blah... bottom line though, it's your car and your money...

My plan would be- Save up and pay for it all yourself
 I understand how you feel though- I wanted to swap a Famillia GTX motor into my Mazda 323 back when I was a teen- course my dad said "LIKE HELL YOU ARE" and I never was able to afford my motor- so I had a POS 1.3 litre Mazda
