SR20DE to SR20DET conversion

[Ger Keane]

hey lads,
as a few of ye know i have a spec S. came across a breaker in ireland that deals mainly with silvia parts and just for the laugh asked to see how much it would cost to change engine from sr20de non turbo to an SR20det straight out of a spec R.
was told i could get all the parts for around ?2000, thats:

engine,ecu,wiring loom, intercooler, manifold, turbo, afm,down pipe
for exhaust, radaiator.

he also recomends i stick with the 5 speed gear box as it is stronger than the six speed.

what do ye reckon??
its just an idea at this stage!
