It would end up being cheaper to sell what youve got and buy a GST. The 4g63t (turbo motor) wont drop into a 420a RS/GS platform...

Welcome to the forums, if youre looking for a daily driver, keep the gs, :) if what you want is an insane ammount of power get a gst or gsx, engine swaps are possible between these but are absolutely not worth it, not to mention it would include quite some mods... welcome once again

Welcome to the site, it's a friendly place, I'm sure you'll feel like this is nearly a second family in no time at all. Any idea as to why it isn't running? Do you really need an entire new engine?

Aye, I feel the same way about my 3000GT. Good luck! And it's gonna be fun tearing apart an engine. :) Gosh I wish I had one lying around I could dismantle, fix, and put back together.
