well i put the deposit down on it so the guy will hold on it for a couple days and its clean as hell with 75000mi. and gettin the car for $2500. Also a friend of mine wrecked his GSR and is offering his engine(no tranny) for $1000 and its a 97 motor with i believe 85-90K on it. plus i dont have the money for a swap yet, im a student and need a cheap vehicle for school and back, possibly work if i get a job before april. So April is when im plannin on doing work to the car.

a clean 75k mile LS for $2500? dude, fuck the deposit, take that thing home NOW! swap the gsr motor in when you have a chance, but use the gsr tranny. the ls gearing will kill that gsr motor.

lol yeah i got the car yesterday. It needs slight, slight body work. Has some scratches. But runs perfect. ABS light is on. Im trying to get the engine from my friend but cant come up with the money yet. if i do get te money im definatly gonna build it in my living room, lol. I have a guy that had a GSR engine and tranny with like 40-50k on it, with everything for a swap but wants like $3000. I guy on HAN is looking for one and told him about it cuz its far to rich for my blood.

sounds like my car. fisrt thing you try is bleeding the abs (not the brake calipers, it's different) see if it will start working. chances are it will work for a while. you probably need to replace the accumulator. i was trying to wrestle the entire abs unit out of my gsr yesterday so that i could put it in my ls. it's a pain in the cuz the gsr is crashed so i have less room to work with.

lol sounds like an idea, I can take a stab at it though. I dot notice a problem though. Its weird, unless im not supposed to notice one until a certain point but the light is on all the time. Anyone know of good sites for reviews and engine swaps?
