So i was planning on doing my 3 swap in late June-July, but have opted to wait towards the end of the year seeing as how i am buying a condo right now and wont have 4,000 cash to drop on a front clip, yet:)

But i will still be able to spend money on other things, so i was thinking of stuff i could do before i did the swap... But all i could come up with is a new exhaust.
What else can i do to make my car more swap ready?

Im not talking about stereo or side skirts or lowering, just strickly related to the swap.

Thanks for your help and advice

I made this list before...

- maintenance work, anything rubber, gaskets, seals, etc
- exhaust work
- gauges, etc
- fuel pump
- EMS
- BOV
- Motor mounts
- Flywheel
- Clutch

Misc

- Batt to boot
- New OEM axles for back up since you have a 94 assuming you're using the GT tranny.
- Boost controller
- List can go on...
- Front mount, and misc if not going 3rd gen w2a


i have been wondering about this as well. can you be specific? what about bushings? OMG some are a PAIN!! learned from last time!

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.
