You could try chris at Deeps garage it's in lakeside though he helped me with my sr in my 510. Great work.

I have a friend who've rebuilt his sr20det from top to bottom all oem internals. If you wanna do it yourself. Just have a thread on builds, and we can guide you through. Just be mechanically inclined enough for the basics, do some research research research, take notes. And factory service manual is your best friend. Im rebuilding my ka so far.

Ive built several engines before and my very first one was a 3sgte and I had no prior knowledge on building them. It took a long time and a lot of research to get it all right and it is still running strong today and it was built in 06. But I do not suggest that route. Its a lot easier and MUCH QUICKER to have someone who knows what they are doing to build it for you. Or atleast have someone help you build it. But once you do it, its a fairly simple concept. Good luck w/build.
