1. answer is simple : take the diff out , cut the housing and weld shut the holes . run a rb25det tranny
2. alot of poeple are saying ... there's no replacement for displacement !!!
3. i'm up around 15,000 to 20,000 $$$can. for my swap in a usdm s14 ... but i rebuilt the bottom end of my rb26 with forged pistons and r33 crank !!!
but there's alot more custom shit in a usdm s14 :
- motor mounts
- downpipe to clear the steering column
- wiring harness
- drive shaft
- electric fans ... no place for the mechanic one
- ect...
i think you should be find with 10,000$$$
since your not fare from your wanted rwkw , i would just forged the rb25 !!!
sorry for my english i'm french !!!
