S13 Sil80 Engine swap, What is my best option/s ?

[Akerbay95]

Hi!
Recently purchased my first S13, a fresh-ish imported Sil80

Its come with some nice goodies on it, some RAYS Compionato's, Blitz coilovers, Apexi Exhaust, Sparco seat and a few hks bits under the bonnet, air filter etc...Very Clean underneath
Only 'problem' is its a non turbo SR20DE

My understanding is You cant do too much to these engines ?

Absolutely in no rush, probably run as is for best part of a year and wear out any teething issues she may have! Want everything done 100% properly with this car...no intention of selling
Figured I could pick my swap and buy the bits over the next year in preparation ?

That being said I know I will want more power eventually! Just wandering what my best/most cost effective swap would be...Im thinking RB20DET/25 or a SR20DET so far...

Anyone done these swaps in this car ? or have an idea of how difficult on parts/labour etc these are!

Much appreciated in advance

p.s my first post in here so Hello all
Hope this is the right place for such a post...
Much Love

SR20DET is the easiest, but you can put almost any engine in if you've got the time and the fabrication skills.

Plenty of detailed guides on doing the SR20DET swap though, literally just read a few threads and copy what has been done hundreds of times already.
