Sorry bro thats way over inflated because of your area that probably makes your car rare. <BR>I can get a 2.5L KL-03 engine with 200PSI compression and 138km for $685. <P>I was looking for an engiine with less than 200Km and under $500

I had that same idea when I first failed my emissions test. I bought this car as a second driver car and will probably end up letting my g/f drive it around. The 1.8L engine is pretty Torquey seeing that the mx3 weighs nothing. Its not a race car true. But Im putting a DET into my G20 this summer and I have a bad feeling about the install price for a shop to drop in the 2.5L engine swap.

Ya you can get them at Autozone for $58 (there are 2 btw) a piece and you probably do them yourself. The front one is so easy to see. The back on is a little harder. But if you thinking you need a new engine cause you can't pass emissions, then that is pure madness.
