You're one to talk. My sr20 has been operational for three years, you're still trying to figure out the engine buying process. Btw, if you think you're only gonna spend a couple grand on an engine swap and that's it, then you are sadly mistaken my friend.

Wait, people still use the color of a valve cover to identify what year the engine is..

That's good to hear and I know it's going to cost more money, but I got it.

95BoostedS14

I'm curious to know what ever happened? Did you receive the engine yet man?

240sx-pat

Hey, no I haven't received it yet I may have mentioned in the post that it was in Texas couple of days back but it was actually in Addison Illinois any who do to bad weather there were delayed so that's why I haven't received it. The company called and was asking if I was available on Wednesday I said no because of work so I told them Friday.

So it should be here this Friday I'll get some photos up.

The motor came today but we could not get the damn thing off the 18wheeler he did not have the tools to get it off the trunk .....why? because for whatever reason I don't know whos fault this is but on the paper work there was no lift gate service on there therefore he didn't have the tool with him.

said they could come back on Monday but I got work so i told him it'll have to be next Friday.


So I'm just going to wait around til Friday.

wow that sucks man...did it look ok tho? right engine?

Corbic

Did you specify and pay for residential delivery? It would say so in the BOL. If not, fail.

240sx-pat

It was wrapped up I didn't really pay to much attention was just thinking how we gonna get this thing off the truck. only thing I could really see was the transmission.

Nagoya's people asked if I needed a lift gate services I said yes and told them to send me fee through paypal and I paid.

h2v7

thats about the time i woulda makde that bitch wait and called 6 of my friends!!!!!!!

240sx-pat

Well the delivery guy came back today then for whatever reason while I was getting ready to work to make this long story short I just told the guy I'm going to have my GF sign it off and they said it was okay. It is not the same engine as I saw in the video but I think they actually sent me a real S13 Blacktop

Now I have this mysterious engine in my garage so far the shipping appears to be okay nothing broken or anything...However two if the portion on the harness is cut , 1 from the side of ECU, I don't know much about car so I'm not sure if this is normal but here are the photos.

this is my car currently























Theres some kind of fur type of thing in the Tranny

KaminaSan

Wtf... wtf is that shit in the tranny? they run over a bear or something?

do you have a fat or skinny O2 sensor on that thing?

The 63 ecu is for a red-top, You can run either, I was just wondering why it was cut. Might need to re-pin it.

240sx-pat

It's a short fat 02 sensor, what's up

pink godzila

Anyways... I dont buy stuff from Ebay at all.

Dont know why you dont find local shop for this or any shop in SoCal.

BTW are you chinese?

240sx-pat

I'm Thai/Chinese, why?

I work too much don't really have to go shopping for engine, I do a lot of crap online just never an item that's pricey like this.

240sx-pat

LMFAO I think i see why you asked me if I was Chinese , I think you saw a box with Chinese writing in the background there, my GF is Taiwanese. The Motor is here at her house.

rollout240

Since they gave you an auto redtop ecu you will need the skinny o2 sensor, which means you'll probably need the adapter to fit it in the manifold.

Yea, I'm just gonna keep this one too much hassle and I just talked to roll out he suggest I tell them that they sent me a beat up ignitor chip and cut lower harness , lets see what they say.

JuMPiiN

Missing ignitor, CAS looks damaged in pic maybe? Your 3rd coil looks cracked as well, I'm fairly certain the ecu's are compatible.

97nismo

good news is .............................it is a blacktop, but now i am curious about the compression and the bear hair in the tranny?

the throttle bracket kinda looks homemade, kinda hard to tell from pics, and it would suggest maybe it was an auto at one time but idk..............

I'll have to check the compression again when I have time, the bear hair in the tranny It look like they just stuffed it in there to keep stuff from getting in, but who knows I mean took it all out didn't see anything wrong looks pretty clean.



I have an ignitor but one of the end is broken, the CAS I don't even see it in the photo but it appears to be okay when I took a look at it. the coil is okay too,

but the ignitor is broken on one of the end

rollout240

The CAS is on the very front of the engine. Right above the water neck that goes to your radiator. It looks broken. (Good eye JumPiin)
