Oh Attila the fun, is that how much the car will actually be after the conversion and other parts or just yours. Because that is a lot of money and I have another car but don't think your interested in it or will I ever have that kind of money to even think about geting your car. But thanks anyway for the offer and help.

If I'm understanding your question correctly, "the car... after the conversion" will be somewhere between $25,000 and $65,000, depending on how much you can do, yourself, and how much you have to contract out.

My car is >priced< at $39,900, because that's what it's worth to me to sell. (That puts one kid through college.) In building the car, I followed David Lane's advice: "Never, never, never add up all the recepts." Doing that is not good for your heart.

As for the other car, try me. It costs nothing to ask. In taking a trade-in, I'm looking for something that I can turn around and re-sell. (Some cash, now, plus a sellable car gives me more cash than I had five minutes ago.)

If you can't buy my car, you probably can't build one, unless

1) you are an experienced and somewhat gifted mechanic (or have friends who are), and

2) you have one or more sources for incredibly discounted parts.

Nah i do have alotta friends that have done the swap and sold their car. they have offered to help me for free. my friend thats getting me the engine says the only thing i need to buy to get it running is the cooling system. he did the exact same swap with an upgraded cooling system and was running just fine b/c it came with all the parts for the swap already. And last but not least by all means, the connections for parts, lets just say i have a few that can easily get what i need. Exhausts-good friend owns a big shop down here in hawaii, turbo-friend owns wicked machine racing-top aftermarket place here in hawaii,other stuff like computers and etc.-friends in mainland that own plenty shops with all this stuff. in case u were wondering, i dont have the other car anyore b/c i sold it to someone in japan-it is now converted to right hand drive-he did all the work and sent me pics through the mail which i now lost due to moving-the car was a 1991 nissan sentra se-r w/sr20de-t-fully built, all custom from sounds to interior and exterior lighting-sold it for 5g's. but enuff talking jibberish, gotta go finish leathering my interior, Peace out.
