im suprised you found 1, i've seen some g20s but never an se-r in the yard.. lol

grab the tranny, axles, radiator, wiring harness ect.. btw is your car already a manual? if not grab the clutch / brake pedal stuff, shifter bars an shifter, also the cross member an brackets, grab all motor mount stuff for back up, or "just incase"

other things to think about is the rear disc brakes and suspension, i'd grab the sway bar, lower control arms and hubs an calipers.. grab the front calipers too an hell i'd grab the struts an springs too! i got all 4 for 80 bux one time..

its not often u find a se-r in the junk yard.. even if u didnt use the parts i mentioned u could easily sell them to someone who wanted to do a full conversion..

also think about grabin the seats.. soo much better then the others..
oh an grab the trunk!!! hehe

anyway theres my .02 buddy.. have fun!

buy the car take what you need and then scrap or sell the other stuff. Not to be a dick but if this is your first time with these cars and you dont have somebody helping you this is going to be very challenging for you.

Also you dont need a book just look in the driver side door jam it tells you everything on the sticker.

If anyone can show me a 94 b13 with a lowport from the factory I will be very suprised.

well hopefully your fat fingers aren't attached to fat hands - because working on an import is slightly tighter spacing than most v8's I've seen...good luck with your build!
