ok so im finally doing the swap lol so basically im going through a parts list of things required for the swap and things ill do just for fun.







ok so my car is a s5 with the full s5 t2 drivetrain



things im buying for the swap







Motor (s5 t2 from Rotary Shack, any comments on them??)



ecu (stock jdm ecu)



fmic core - Trust (where i can i buy a trust core??????!!)



fmic pipe work (local shop)



exhuast (apexi GT single exit exhuast)



downpipe (some help here?)



greddy profec s (how do you like this as compared to the profec B?)



and some new wheels and tires... (cheapos for now, saving for volk gtu's *uber drool*)









so far thats all i can think of.... i probably left some **** off so throw it out if you remember something i dont or something i forgot to add on there.





also what do i need to remove to throw a FMIC up there? and i saw rotary performance has the greddy TB elbow for like 100 bucks.





ok.... so i believe thats it let me know what i might encounter as far as problems go. i have a team of us pretty experienced rotarians lol so im confident in our abilities just putting together this damn list of crap and ordering it

i remember something else lol a boost guage hehe any suggestions on that?

just curious how much the engine is and if it included the ECU?

1200 for the s5, a little steep but its better than getting screwed by some unknown company, no ecu included but he is sourcing one for me. the owner robert seems like a super super cool guy

what about the dash nonsense.... if i run an aftermarket boost guage will all the other guages still work? lol

unless its wired (plumbed? w/e) wrong. yes

hehe well i just read my last statement it made me sound stupid, i meant ill run an after market boost guage but aside from that i shouldnt encouter any problems with the stock gauges.. anyways so it looks like im good to go =D

i have a olds school trust core. 250 us will take it





for gauges i'm using the VDO black cockpit series.

yeah and just like every other ******* place one out of three people get their **** probably, im tired of dishonest people. robert from rotary shack seems like a really nice guy but my problem is i havent even ordered my motor yet and he is already kinda hard to get ahold of...... rob you have one in stock? s4 or s5? let me know asap..... like really quickly

I have S4 and S5 in stock, I wasnt online Friday at all.

hey rob i gotta run and i REALLY want to talk to you today if i can, i dont have a site for you lol i dont know how to buy these motors or even talk to you aside from this thread and PM's so if youre interested in selling a motor asap give me the specs on the s5 the price shipping to 78250 san antonio texas and maybe a # to call about payment ( i have all the money just want to know what you prefer) so if you want my aim is crassfc3sdrft ill be on later on tonight so hopefully we can catch each other sometime today and get this thing bought on monday
