importwarrior Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 personally i would just build the hell out of the 2.6 but if you must here is a link for you http://www.geocities.com/piercedjd/4G63Conquest.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzord30 Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 In stock form with no added power addders then what its got, the 2.6 has way more potential then the S2000 motor, and for the price of the S2k motor you could have an easy 400 hp..... And if you got the S2k to 400hp the 2.6 wold still have at lest 100 more TQ which = more wheel spining fun . The 2.6 has propeld the Sakura to mid low 7's.... You must be wanting to go faster then that ;D. And any engine swap will coust money for like coustom headers, drive shaft, and mounts......

s.kodai Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 the words "simple" and "swap" do not even belong in the same paragraph. there "simply" is NO SUCH THING as a "simple" swap. or, i guess, the only simple swap is to swap in a stock motor. anything else abd you are in for a lot of pain and money.

PiercedJD Posted September 27, 2002 Report Share Posted September 27, 2002 well, my engine swap was relatively painless. honestly. I was full time college at the time and on a very limited budget and still got the car done in 6 months. now I am working full time again taking some time off from school, so it is down for upgrades.
