If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Thats kind of a grey area question, because you can do just a 3sgte motor swap but then end up having to upgrade the rest of the car as far as suspension, brakes, wheels and tires. assuming you are inquiring this for the silver car and that you have already gone through the suspension process, you can get a 3sgte swap done right for roughly $5k I would say. with proper research done and buying the right parts the first time and searching for good prices for parts. that would be $2k for hopefully a good healthy engine set with uncut harness, give or take $1k for proper engine maintenance parts, another $1k for clutch and full exhaust setup, (berk 3" dp and 3" back or 2.5" back exhaust which ever you prefer) and another $1k for miscellaneous parts (gauges, fluids, axles seals, new axles possibly, hoses). my build came closer to $6k because I opted to go with a FMIC which required piping and someone to tig it for me, as well as some growing pains I had along the way. I have a lot more into the car overall but my swap cost me around $6k but it could be done for $5k give or take a few hundred depending on what kind of deals you could find and options you chose for the setup. Other members swaps may vary to mine but i think $5k is realistic price for a 3rd gen 3sgte swap.
