I was going to be getting a full S5 front cut from japan. but someone said that it is too hard to put a S5 engine in my car.(1988 T2) Im getting the full front end. That runs. how hard is it to do this swap? Thanks

it's not hard, but you might want to just stick with an s4 engine unless you are getting a really good deal on the s5...and if that's the case and you still have your s4 engine, take them both in and have the s4 engine rebuilt with the s5 rotors and housings...just my .02 thought

 

well, im getting a full front cut for 1600 dollars... comes with EVERYTHING.. and I dont have time to rebuild a motor.. I cant be without a car.. I cant get to work if i dont have a car.. you know what i mean?

oh its JDM front end too... Right hand drive.

yeah but you're just putting in the engine right?

 

Well, I want to Put the S5 engine in my S4.. I will be swapping out the wiring harness, and the ECU.. is this all there is to the swap? Thanks
