Ok i am just curious but. i have an opportunity to buy an FC. Since its na i want to swap a 20B in it with the left over money i will have. I know this will be alot of work and will require much effort. So this is my question... should I buy the FC and do this or just wait and save to get a FD??

Well, as long as you're aware of the work that it'll take(not to mention bling bling) to dump the 20B into an FC, do whatcha wish, lol....



Either way is cool w/me, it's your ride.



*cough* Although a girl w/an FD = sexy. lol

20b into an NA is going require a lot of work...A LOT OF WORK, Drivetrain, Suspension, Differential, ECU, Wiring, Motor Mounts, Transmission. Although the list isnt that long, its a lot a of work...

I have seen both swaps, and niether one is easy by any means, but the FC swap took a lot less modification to get the engine in the engine bay. You will need to swap over the entire drivetrain, just as you would going from a N/A to a T2.

any other comments this is impportant to me?

FC's are better and 20bs are ridiculous.



edit: I don't know how much money you plan on having left over but you will need A whole lot of it.

i think there is a writeup for the 20b convers. in the rebuilding section,,,

The 20b would be different than just having a FD, but a girl with either would be very sexy. Any girl with a RX is SEXY

I would go with the 13b turbo in a FC, cheap fun and fast.

If you can do all the work, and fabrication your self, then you can get a cosmo front clip, mod it, and have a fast car for less than 10 grand (still less than an FD).



But that is assumeing you can do it your self, if you have to pay someone their going to charge you 1 arm, 1 leg, and you left nut!
