soo best bet will be to buy a s30 body and then just do the swap...i think the MSA III looks really good on the s30 i found a running s130 turbo with a few engine aftermarket parts but with extensive body damage for about 400... i'll just find a s30 body and do the swap! and get the msa III kit!

i like both cars but i want the MSA TYPE III body kit, so i guess i i'll just have to find a s30 and swap motors!

this may be an obvious question but will s30 kits fit on a s130? and if not its it hard to mod to make them fit? or would i be better of just getting an s30? i love the these kits but they are for the s30's http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/CTGY/BSC http://album.hybridz.org/data/500/120054134z_on_hatch.jpg any advice? i found a good deal on a s130 with l28et (which is the motor i want) and i dont know if i should just find a good s30 body and swap motors or mod one of those kits up to fit the s130? thanks! looking for what you guys thing would be the cheaper route...all the work either the swap or body work i can do myself...

so i'm reading that pre '82 l28et's had the solid lifters...is that right?

i'm throwing this up cuz i wanna know what kit is this?

and that would probably be much cheaper then swapping in a RB! hmm ok this is a big help! and now i know my options are open in I wanna step it up and swap a rb...now I am off to find a turbo s30 or s130! and i'm actually glad to go with a l28et....i like the nostalgia of that engine! anyways! also what year was the best l28et? i was reading the 1980+ cuz they had hydraulic lifters, bigger oil pump, etc? idk let me know Thanks!

first off thanks for the help! lol i just i should have defined it more...i was asking about different engine swaps into the s30 and s130 chassis... i would like to stay with something either L6 or 4 cylinder but it seems to me that the l28et or an rb series motor will be the best bet..i'm trying to keep the balance of the car but still get good reliable power... a little bit of custom work is not a big deal...custom mounts, driveshaft, and wiring if i did an RB, now i know the reliability and power out put of the Rb (been around them a bit) but i'm extremely new to the whole L series motors, but from what i've read so far the L28et seems to be the best for power and reliability... are they capable of 250 - 300whp reliably? without having to do a full race build, and replacing all interenals with racing parts...etc i guess what i'm looking for is something around 250+whp with daily driver reliability for the better price while still attempting to maintain the balance these cars have...what do you guys think would be better at that a RB or the L28et? also just a curious questions...is there a lot of custom work with a fj20et swap? Thanks again!

no sure where this would go, and i did do some searching but i didnt find anything... so i'm wondering other then the L series motors, what will directly swap in the the s30 or s130's? or swap with little modification? thanks!
