^its probably next to impossible dude... i've read about swaps before on these cars and according to many you can't even go from lsj to lnf (which i thought would be easy)

its mostly the wiring though i think.

ps don't quote me on any of this its just my worthless barely educated opinion, i'd love to see a swap happen

You can do it with a full body harness swap. Would take a couple days, but its doable.

I just use the hand tool part of my carpet (steam) cleaner. Not everyone has one of these but if you do or you know someone it's the best way to clean those stupid fabric cloth inserts. Mine are even more annoying because they are those damn near white colored gray inserts that get dirty just from looking at them the wrong way.

for the lsj and lnf swap you have to do everything trans axles its more expensive then building your motor and turbo it unless your mechanically inclined and can do the work your self
