VE - SR20 Community Forum - The Dash

You can start there.

well I really wanna be the one to put my car together...and swapping the motor can't be that difficult I figure the wiring is gonna be the hardest thing nd getting a ecu.. Is there a right up on how to swap it in somewhere I've tried lookin for it but doesn't really work for me

You're starting with an SE-R so there isn't really a whole lot to it. It's pretty simple for you. Just pull your engine, put in the VE and make a couple of modifications. You really only have to wire a couple things. Almost nothing if you use your stock MAF. It's all simple and straightforward.

Send out your ECU to have it tuned for your setup or get a piggyback system and use that to adjust for your setup.

Get a RPM switch for the cams and follow the link I posted above for the wiring stuff. If you are going to use a different MAF than your stock one then search for Miko's MAF wiring for dummies to wire the new MAF.

I even did a writeup for the VE distributor into the B13 and there is a link in my writeup for the B14. They are both almost the exact same.

You are in Florida. As mentioned, buy your motor from Andreas Miko. That is a no-brainer.

Then even if you do the swap yourself, he will be glad to help you with any questions. And he is a Certified Guru.

Read that entire section, twice, while taking your own notes.

In a B14 on the motor u have to change the coolant temp sensor(pull yours off and swap it to the VE), u know u will get a CLEAN motor from Andreas. Like said before SR out and SR in. Just look to upgrade the clutch and find your self an MSD for the activation

Dont go with tiger is all I have to say.

Remember 2 things:

You get what you paid for
and
Racing aint cheap
