$1700 is a rip off. the place i get them from cost $900. theres places i know that sell them cheaper too but without warrenty. i say dont get it. shop around for some better prices.

1700...what does that come with? or is that just the motor? does it come w/ ecu, axles, shift linkage, motor mounts etc...? if it is a complete swap...which means u can just drop that bad boy in a few hours...then yeah...i would get it. if it was just a motor...i would save up more for b18c1 or as u would call it... b16bc1abcdefg....
