...i highly dispute that figure... my mate's uncle's cousin's cousin's taxi driver's friend's mechanic reckons you're about 0.05-0.15c off the mark....
on a more serious note ah789blahblah, it depends on which B18C variant ur after... ITRc7, VtiRc2? ALso are u asking for the pricing for the engine itself, a frontcut (containing a whole bunch of other shit) or the whole engine/parts installed? I believe to get a b18c2 installed with labour will cost u at LEAST 7k.... or so the story on "teh grapevine" goes.....
wait till someone more experienced/knowledgable stumbles across ur thread...they'll be able to provide more info and quit bein dickheads and ****in with ya...
Hahahaha....Jon...that's pretty expensive labour cost your quoting there!!
if your after the b18c2 from a vtir teg..you may have problems sourcing them. I believe the price range just for the engine would be starting at around the 2.5K mark and higher....
if your after the ITR engine....then they usually start at about 4K...upwards...Some front cuts go for up to 9K....
my cousin imports engines and states that the engines/front cuts are pretty expensive to buy from japan...so often not worthwhile for car places to actually bring them in.
Oh, and you'll be paying more if you want the jap spec ITR engine.
labour will just depend on what car its going into...etc and whether you can find anyone you know to do it for you...I'm lucky in that regard..plenty of cousins
my previous vtir (b18c2) suffered oil surge whilst i was caning it through the hills.. killed the crank and ended up having to replace the whole engine..
ended up getting a replacement b18c2 for cheap for roughly $1,200 so was happy with that.. main problem of finding a b18c (even more so with the type-r b18c) is just stock and the amount available whcih is very scarce.. just ring around.
