Ok I had my s2000 for about 5months now and the clutch seems to be slipping and the 2nd gear seems to be in not too good condition.
was going to eventually going to save up for a turbo charger but Im not wondering which way would be better to go.
I currently have a LS1 and a tranny which I got a couple of years ago for a project car which got scrapped cause I couldn't find a rolling shell I wanted.
which would be a cheaper option buying a turbo charging kit fixing my transmission or going a v8 conversion which would mean ill probably need to buy all the harnesses and engine mount(already have engine and transmission) and sell the current engine off.
Either way labour would be done at a shop.

well the cheapest option would be to buy a turbo kit and swap out the tranny for a second hand s2k gearbox.. but I would love to see an LS1 swap in Oz, so id say go for the engine swap!!

ditto. i'd say be brave and do the swap as long as you know the LS1 engine & tranny is in good nick.

Ls1!!! 5.7 would be awesome in such a light car

haha was expecting to get flamed for even thinking about changing the f20c

ok better start researching and saving money then . Would insurance or registration part be difficult due to the engine change ?

also how much labour cost should I expect I'm going to go around and get some quotes but just an around about would be good to know!
