We've run into a few snags along the way.. a lot of which are related to the power steering and the HICAS problem I mentioned. Other than that I wouldn't really call it hard as much as time consuming. My buddy and I are no where near what I would call experienced so its just been a learning process along the way. Labeling is key to remembering what goes where. One thing that's helpful is its clear as day that this chassis was made for a turbo motor... regardless of the NA only in america. For example, the 240sx power steering resevoire is on the passenger side but when you swap the motor you need to move it to the drivers side... upon inspection you'll notice the holes are already drilled and just plugged with a rubber grommet. Pop out and bolt in. Also the intercooler piping for the SR20 comes up right where the KA's intake is so when you look down below the intake there is already a pattern where you cut the metal to allow the intercooler piping to come in. I thought all of this is pretty convenient. Anyway, it took about a day to pull the stock motor out, another day to get everything ready to go in, then we spent most of today getting the steering lines hooked up and the motor in so tomorrow just the little stuff left and hopeefully we'll be boosting =)
