Well, after owning my car for 3 and a half years and not being able to come up with the money to buy a motor, I'm finally swapping. A guy is selling me his b16a sir-ii complete swap (which will leave me with some exta parts to sell) for $1200. He's also throwing in a DC 4-1 I test drove the car today and it ran fine, has recent rebuild new water pump and timing belt... etc.

The only problems are that it has a gsr tranny and a gsr ecu (so it wont rev high enough, but it runs fine) I can adress those issues later... for this price, I'd be stupid not to buy it. It showed up just in time, too. My d15z1 is really in poor shape... it started losing oil recently.

I know its not much, and I'm sure I'll have to upgrade again in the future, but at least my car will be able to get out of its own way now.
