NO , a b16 swap can be found for $2500 shipped anywhere and a auto to manualk swap shouldnt be no more than $5-700 , $3500 would be a good price for everything installed

hell no ur gettin *** raped. drop that price to 3500 and its a good deal. 2500 for complete swap. 1000 for install and conversion to manual. this is with them still making hand over fist. should only take 1 complete day to get done with all needed parts.

So by your standards....the engine with all those bolt-ons for 2500$.......THEN a full auto to manual conversion (including..pedals, lines, wiring, etc..) and all done for 1000$? Things must be way differant in WA?

Re: is 5000$ a good deal? (XratedEk)
that full auto to manual conversion only costs time. the pieces can b found for dirt cheap. as far as all those bolt ons. who gives a ****. if i sold my 99 EX with a B16 it doesnt mean its worth more. its only more desirable to have the B16. hence why i put in a D16 back in the car.
realistically, i could find a legit B16 full swap for 2k, hell ive done it. **** to b honest ive bought a whole totalled 95 GSR for 2k another 00 SI totaled for 2k also. so im not nuts, this guy is about to get *** raped period.

i did my auto to man for $90 including slave, master, pedal assembly, lines and it probably took around 1-2 hrs, so you that part really isnt that expensive. and i get b16s for like 2300-2600. IMO i think you should just do everything yourself may take some time, but you'll def. save $$

Sounds like you've already made up your mind. Get it done and enjoy it!

Bolt-ons dont mean ****. When you buy a car with bolt-ons doesnt mean its worth more. Its stuff thats mandatory to have it running. Wouldnt you rather buy a stock motor that has a better chance of not being abused?? Bolt-ons cant cure a f*cked up motor.
Also $1000 is pretty pricey for an auto-manual conversion. Pay me $1000 and Ill turn your car into a 5-speed.
You asked for our opinion and we gave it to you. No need to call people idiots just cause they can get a better deal than you.

ok, you bring your car up here to me and ill get you a motor tranny and computer, swap yer car to a 5 speed, and install the motor and you can drive it home for $2500. for $5000 are they at least including the lube to rape you? or do you have to supply that yourself? and do you at least get a reach around??
