yep... frankly speaking, i did the math, and for the most part unless theres a very special/specific reason why he wants to shove it into HIS car specifically, its financially more viable to
iinm, all 4 mounts confirm different. crossmember is different, subframe also different. need to fabricate custom mounts so that no modification is done at the engine bay. i have a 2.0 citra. had considered swapping the engine but after done some research, not worth it.
engine price complete with dashboard & wiring (you will definitely need the dashboard and wirings) is around RM5k for the gsr. non turbo is around RM3k++. swap labor most probably around RM1.5k-2k not including the custom mounts. i think definitely gonna hit RM10k-12k easily.
i was on the lookout for 4g63t's recently (93 priced quite similar).... they aint that cheap.
if buy separately/barai maybe can get within 5k as stated by @sanekit , but the money spent to start the engine is pretty close to get complete halfcut.
i might be able to recommend 1 or 2 workshops but i can't confirm if they want to do it or not. i can PM you their contacts and you can ask them directly. but for these kind of swap, don't expect your car to be ready in a month.
Yes... Pls do pm me. No harm on surveying right?
Yah, was about to ask this also. Even turbo kit from speedworks, cheapest around RM8k, not including workmanship and other mods.....
Considering the insanity of the swap, one thing the dude seemingly has is money. Why worry? If he's ready for such a big task, I'm sure he's aware of the costing.
But once you bump up it's power, fc most probably will go down.........lol
If got RM, better off modding some popular cars, easy on parts, workmanship and so on......lol
That seems a bit too high though. Guys in our Mark X club have done swaps to 3.0SC/3.5 engines and 'only' cost them around 15-20k already including swapping the transmission and long drive shaft. But yeah the message is the same, this kinds of swaps usually will end up pretty costly.
demand vs supply, 4g93/63t engines~
Evo 4G63T I can understand but 4G93T should not be that expensive. Guys in our Mark X club bought the very rare Tom's 3.0 supercharge unit for just rm14k from Japan auction already including all wiring, gearbox and driveshaft ready to plug and play only. His total cost around 20k or even less all installed.
4G93T and 4G93T CK layout prices is expensive. for 5k maybe you can get a 93T CK floor engine only.
Wife's car no need to mess around much la. FC good but install SC then surely go south already. She will probably also complain why engine becomes noisy. Like one of our Mark X Club guys also, he installed SC kit but only used very shortly as the wife keeps complaining that suddenly the car sounds so noisy with all the whining and swooshing. Now that my Mark X I give to my wife to drive, I also stop thinking to mod it already coz she won't appreciate it!
Like Mark-X... nearly bought it
