Hoping to do an engine swap this summer to a D turbo and was wondering if it as simple as i think it is or are there common errors people make or if there are things that arent so obvious i.e will the driveshafts from my NAD engine be suitible for a D turbo etc. any advice will be much appreciated as this is my first engine swap
cheers

It's very very simple you can use the same driveshafts. Get a dturbo gearbox as the ratios are different, you can even use the NAD wireing loom if you really want as the engine can be ran on just 1wire. you need to get a dturbo downpipe and then it will mate up to the rest of the system.
It is a very easy conversation to do I done one on my mates car he drove in and out in a day.
