IMO you need to BUY an S2 it will be much easier....

Good luck whatever you decide to do.

Maybe in UK it's the cheapest way, but not everywhere!

by the time you have finnished it is easyier to just buy an s2, i paid £2300 for my cq but with all the mods it now owes me about £7500 and its not finnished yet and that is nearly all my own work, but the money bit didnt make much difference to me ive got the satisfaction of knowing that ive done it all myself with the added bonus that you do your own repairs easyier if you know how everything goes together, so if your going to pay someone to put your engine in, just buy an s2, if on the other hand you have a bit of time on your hands, you like the buzz of achivement, and you are keen to become good friends with Mr. Knuckle Rash go for it!

I bought S2 3B with instaled diesel engine and converted it to ABY(AAN) and it would be better (cheaper) to buy ABY at the start. I colected the parts realy long time and realy cheap but it doesnt make sense to do it. Take 7k€ up to 9k and buy ABY.
