vvl is cheaper (motor only) you still need all the swap parts wich will add up (trust me I know as I did the 1.6 to 2.0 and auto to manual swap) buy all the swap parts first then see how much you have. you can get JDM na sr20de for very cheap at most places. Good luck but $2400 is not going to get you very far if you buy quality parts or refresh everything before just throwing it together.

If I were you I'd sell your car (assuming that 1.6 is still running well), take that ~2k add it to your $2400 and get a real nice B13 or a nice B14 that is already swapped.

If you are dead set on swapping your car, you have to weigh what kind of power and complexity you want. The VE is going to be the simplest, then the turbos. Turbos will be torquey, but not as linear. If I were building a autocross build I'd rather have a VE.

Have you driven a turbo car or a revvy 4 cylinder? They are both completely different and it is a personal preference.

Hit up Andreas Miko for what swap parts you may need. I'm sure he could get u every
thing you need

VE-around 1k
DE tranny about 400
Sr16 clutch/fly 250
Wire harness 150
All 4 prothanes 120
Misc nuts bolts 100
ECU 200
Msd switch 120
Axles ?

I'm guessing prices these should be pressty close.give.or take a few $$$...

Also where r u located?
