Alright I had a thought. Most people complain a ton about the cost of the JDM 3s swaps. What if instead of importing a 3s to the U.S. you pulled the motor out of a 5th gen all-track. I would assume it would bolt right up, right? Would the wirring also be easier since your swaping from a left hand drive to a left hand drive? If all this were true, I think that it would be cheaper, granted you would only have about 200hp compaired to the might JDM 3s's
I havn't ever seen this discussed on here, and always wondered about it. Sorry if this has already been discused buy I couldn't find it, and didn't see anything searching for it. |

Its been discussed here. But USDM 3SGTE's are usually pretty beat up and JDM engines can be easily found with lower mileage.
