Front clip-s4 turbo

Ive been looking at getting a JDM front clip and swapping
the engine over into my n/a, the front clip is 1900 and i would pick it up and look it over.

Im just wondering if id be better off just getting a motor/tranny, or is a front clip a good option?

And anyone with experience with this, would a front clip fit in the back of a full size pickup truck?

thanks

its not a bad idea if you get a good deal on it.

if you dont wanna go rhd, yank the engine, tranny, bumper, and fenders. sell it to someone who does.

yea and you'll have wiring harness, coils, ecu, and as mentioned the RHD stuff (that I would probably put on my car). That sounds like a pretty good price too, I payed $1300 shipped for an S5 13b Turbo with transmission, and I thought I got a good deal (well I still think I did, but RHD would have been sweet). So yea, you could sell the extra parts you don't need, hopefully get two wheels, brakes, steering rack, and the subframe.
