go local. IMO, paying for shipping for a d-series negates their cost advantage. I found a z6 with transmission and ecu for $500 locally. Now factor in shipping (hmotors is in california), and you're paying 50-75% more than what the motor is worth. They're abundant enough... check local websites, shops and junkyards.

 

Is there any much of a difference if i was to get a ZC DOHC rather then a D-series

 

a dohc zc will be harder to get your hands on if you're outside of california, so expect to either wait around a while or pay for shipping.

 

That's somewhat of a pain-in-the-ass swap unless you can get an uber-rare OBD-1 ZC, all for a couple horsepower and an extra cam.

The ZC actually is a D-series anyway.

 

I dont mind shipping at all i just wanted to know would i have to Change alot more stuff rather then just doing a swap?

 

well, as kai mentioned, getting an obd1 zc isn't easy, and if you get the obd0 one, expect wiring headaches.

 

D-Series it is. I'll get the usual engine bling and thats bout it. O yea and the I/H/E just get the car lowered with some springs and a camber kit with some nice rims and im pimpish

 

good idea, im glad you decided against a headache swap

 

just to let you know, I have a D16 sittin in my garage im tryin to get ride of, pretty much everything you would need minus the harness

 

why are you keeping it an auto? to stay "pimpish"?

if your gonna go through thte trouble of doing a swap you might as well make it worth it. converting to a standard isnt that hard as long as you have some technical know how. i say buy a complete z6 or y8 5spd swap from a local junkyard buy a pedal assembly, clutch lines/slave cylender, rear mount and tranny mount and start yourself a nice weekend project that you'll be happier with in the long run.

p.s. sorry i fi came off as hostile bu tim a little lit up
