Did you rebuild your SR? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I've been wondering this for a long time, but when shops do SR swaps, do they take the time to rebuild it? Do you rebuild your own before putting it in? I'm helping a friend swapping his MR2 right now and rebuilding is longer than expected. We still have to get the valve spring compressor for 2nd Gen MR2, but don't know where to get it at. Local stores don't carry them. Anyways, just wondering if you guys rebuild them before putting it on. I've heard of alot of complaints on SR probelms (hesitation, boggs, etc..), maybe you didn't rebuild it? If shops actually take the time to rebuild an 10ish year old SR before slapping it on, then it's well worth the $1000? labor.
