New Here And Questions Regarding Purchasing FC Shell

Hey guys,

I don't own an FC yet, but I'm thinking about buying a shell and swapping an engine and transmission into it. What I would like to know is how hard is it to swap a motor in an FC compared to a regular FWD chassis? I have swapped my motor and it wasn't that difficult..just want to see what I would be up against.

I found an FC Turbo shell for a decent amount, but it doesn't have an engine, transmission or ECU. I found all that for about $1,500 before shipping.\

It's either between this and a 240SX..my brother owns a 240 and honestly I've always liked the look of an FC a little better.

Any ideas/advice?

Thank you!!!!

Shouldn't be too hard but it really depends on your skill level. Good luck.
