Yeah but you have more rotaries to play with than SR engines.  I was just wondering.  To me, the cost of a SR-20 is too high.  Yeah, it would be cheaper if they had the SR20DET in the states to begin with, but since I know how much I can get a good SR with a tranny in Japan I would never pay over a thousand bucks for an engine tranny combo.  I can't see myself spending that kind of money on a used engine.  I would actually think it would be more cost effective to drop a VG30DETT in a S13 because they're a little more easier to get in the states.  Thats just my opinion though.
