Default Anyone thinking about a b18c1 swap in the next 2-3 months?

I was thinking that if I could get a few people together, we could get a better price on b18c1 swaps from a honda swap vendor like hmo or Import salvage.

For example, if the price of b18c1 swaps is advertized for $ 2899.00 (94-95) and $ 3199.00 (96-01) maybe we can save some good money if we get together and shop around.

I know it will take some cordination, but let's see what you think. If interested, post here with an email address so we can make a mailing list.

If those are the prices you are getting from IAS, then you are already getting a deal

I paid $3,800 shipped for my swap from IAS 98GSR w/ 53k

Lol... Just talked to "someone"

I asked if I could get a better deal if I bought 10 swaps.... Hello!! That's $32000.................

They said No. We woould save some money on shipping if all the swaps were mailed to the same place.

I guess demand is greater that I thought.

$32000 and no discount? ****!!

You have to realize that all their motors will sell with or without a discount. It's not worth all of the problems associated with a groupbuy for them.

I just learned that, 10 minutes ago.....

I would really appreciate if someone that knows the truth steps up and tell us how much are they making on average off every swap.... 100% profit?
