Default Gettin Blown - Any Mechanics?

So I have a complete Vortech SC kit in my garage along with some extras. Calling some shops around town, it's going to be a bit of money to install. Just seeing if anyone on the boards that really knows what they are doing is interested in doing the install at a less expensive rate.

I have basic mechanical knowledge, and pulled this SC off another car with a friend. Just not confident enough to handle all the aspects by myself, and could help with the install.

Here is what I need to install...
-Stock Crankshaft Pulley
-Polished & Machined Camshaft Cover (Allows additional Clearance for SC Belt)
-GTM Pulley Mod (Eliminates Belt Slip on Early Vortech Belt Routing Setup)
-Pillar Pod & Gauges: STRi Oil Pressure, Boost, & AEM Eugo Wideband
-Oil Cooler
-550CC Injectors & Clips
-HPX Maf Sensor
-Oil Catch Can
-Complete Vortech Kit & Intercooler
-JWT Oil Pan Spacer
-Walbro Fuel pump
-Install 3.12 Pulley
-One Step Colder NGK Iridium Plugs

I plan to have a buddy tow to Xact Dyno for the tune since I already have uprev license on my ECU. I have a daily driver, so I can leave for a while and help with whatever in the evenings/weekend.

Or maybe just best to save and have shop do?
Thanks for the insight.

print the instructions.

follow instructions to bolt on....

Its literally that easy.


simple hand tools are all you need.

You cannot mess up too bad, you're simply bolting stuff onto the car, you even took it off another car... its the opposite of that, but following instructions.

you'll never learn until you get your hands dirty.
then you'll be able to diagnose and fix problems that arise, and they will.

ps, i hope this is for your nissan, as most of that stuff doesn't work on an s2k.

So let me see if im following you here....
You have a vortech from a g35 that you want installed on your s2k?
If so good luck that will be some money in fab work for the brackets. Wouldnt it be more logical to sell the g35 kit and just get a s2k kit?
I dunno its late and im not thinking straight.

If it is going on a g35, no problem, I have done a couple. but trying to modify the kit to fit your s2k... that is why it is so much money. because people will have to MAKE it fit with fabrication. Nothing will line up since they are completely different.

lol, yes. It's for a G35. I posted on this board because there is a lot more local web traffic for auto enthusiast here than on G35driver these days. I wouldnt even begin to attempt to to try and make this kit work on a S2k.

9KRDLN, how much would you charge?
