From what I READ, you will need the tranny, driveshaft, and rear end. An N/A rear end will not take that much horsepower and torque. They are so brittle. I think they can only take up to 200hp, maybe a little more if you wanna push it.





www.rotaryworks.com sells them. Good luck man. And don't worry about the engine, tranny,and rear end. The little stuff will kill you in the end.



Some other folks might be able to help some more.



A 13b-re is a huge step, and honestly you are better off putting in an S5 TII, or just straight up by a TII. At least with that TII you won't have to mess with the tranny,driveshaft,and rear end. It is all there, oh and the turbo'd engine also.

i know about tha tranny thing, but i know someone with a wrecked t2 ( RIP )

so i can get some parts out of that i assume, like tranny and ****, so i hope i can use my gxl and make it go Oo

if you are serious about the swap..

all the above about the tranny, rear end etc...

you will also need a fmic w/ custom piping, an after market clutch & flywheel...use the counter weight thats on the engine. if you want to keep the stock turbos do the conversion from sequential..or do like I'm doing go single and eliminate the crap..get block off plates for removal of all the unnessary crap..you will need to use a standalone ecu (haltech, wolf 3D, microtech) doing that you will eliminate much of the stupid ****. if you go single you can use and fd or fc turbo manifold..I went with the hks fd ss manifold. you will need an upgraded rad. koyo, or something..I would upgrade the oil cooler as well. you will also need custom motor mounts those can be found at a few places..while you at it you might as well replace the tranny bushings, and rear end bushings, and control arm bushings. you should ditch the belt fan and go with an electric fan. depending on what boost you want to run upgrade the fuel system I have 550 pri and 1600 secondaries. but then I'm running a T04E the exhaust will have to be custom made that includes the DP so be ready for that (as far as I know anyway.) a stock T2 tranny will bolt up but you will have one extra on the engine side but thats fine. you will need a T2 starter and coils, unless your going to upgrade the entire ign. system..(still debating that one myself)

You can use the stock power steering bracket and pump but one from an fc will work too. the rest would be up to you on what you want to do with the engine..but they are a better bang for the buck...and heavy on the pocket ...an S4 or 5 swap would be much cheaper.



here are a few places for parts and what not
