Default Sr20 into a s13 ????questions

Well guys i just picked up an s13 and a redtop sr20. But I have to put the motor in. I was wondering if you could point me to any good informational sites on how to do the swap in a neat manner. Also i need to find out what all I need. As of now i just have a shell with a ka harness and a cut sr harness. Thanks

Heavythrottle.com has a guide, but you probably want to check Zilvia.net.

2 things that I sugest you do b-4 you drop the motor in.

#1 its easier to fit the heater hoses to the motor first b-4 droping

#2 if you plan on putting an aftermarket dump pipe on the car do it b-4 you drop



when you come to the point where you hyave to hook the hydrolic lines up to the trand I just took that box out of the loop, I don't know if this is the right way. It was the only way that worked for me.

or this seems to me the best one:

There is no topic on the internet that has been so exhaustively covered.
