Sorry 2700 american. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif That is about average for all the crap I bought. The labor is anywhere between 500 and 700 usd from what I have seen.

clutch/flywheel-$450
and i'm already up to $4,365...and i'm prolly not even installing it myself and doing the engine rebuild....so i'm almost looking at 5grand...but i think this is a little more than what most people are doing (obviously). but the good thing is, i basically have a new motor after this...won't have to worry about much for a while. the average price for a complete 'basic' swap from a *good* shop is going to be anywhere from 3-3.5k. i can't believe all you other guys get stuff so cheap. i've come to the conclusion that you yankees can get things ALOT cheaper than we can down here in the south..kinda sucks. btw, all funds listed are $US.
------------------
my numbers are more like gota92si's..but i don't believe in being cheap and just getting the motor and mount kit. i replaced everything on my engine and had it totally rebuilt. turned out the rings were bad and the bearings were bad, so if i was a cheapskate and didn't rebuilt my b16 would have sucked. w/ motor, axles, clutch/flywheel, intake, exhaust, mount kit, ecu, tools, shipping..i'm prolly over 4g invested. and all work done by me.
