$750 seems pretty good. Is that the turbo B6 from japan?

Personally I think you can get an engien cheaper ata wreckers. Try Standard Auto Parts..

Japan Auto has been around for awhile. There not really like Teknotik or Tiger who sell JDM motors for performance motor swaps. They just sell replacement motors. Alot of dealership buy from them and alot of shops. They are a really well known place. I would recomend them for sure.
but like i said a wreckers can get you one cheaper and just find a mechanic to put it in since you cannot do it yourself.

Ya, their usually the most expensive place. I belive ZE's go for $2000 still, but have an amazing warranty where they'll swap it out no charge if the motor is defective. So their highly recommended, but pricey.

its just a normal b6 swap i just need a car for now later might thing bout turbos this and that...

and i probably could get it at the wreckers i had one for 300 bux but i had to take it out myself and bring it to my house and find some1 to put it in that to much headaches, at japan auto i got my dads buddy to tow it there for me for 100 bux and they take it from there and do the replacement refill all fluids everything so its easier that way.

ps: i would never get an engine from the wreckers becuase i got a rad from there once and they have this lil bilaw that they can't spill any oils on the ground so the guy dropped the coolant in the engine oil and a month later i go to buy and engine and hey he offers me the one with coolant, so i'll take my chances with paying extra for somthing reliable.

i called about the turbo b6 and he said $1200 just for the engine... i'm stick with stock, and he said he might have one in 2 weeks when the next shipment comes in.

I got a rebuilt head, and a block with only 126,000 km on it. I'll sell you the whole thing for $450, and it's all in oakville so I'm assumin you could pick it up. $500 and I'll throw in a brand new water pump too. This engine is for a 1996, OBDII. I think your car is OBDII as well, though.
