RB25 swap prices
hey, I'm new to 240's, right now I drive a 2000 prelude but I'm looking at buying a 240 as a project car. I went to a local tuning shop and asked them about the RB25 swap, they said that they have done them before and usually charge about $5,540 which is for the engine, tranny, driveshaft, installation, autometer tach, piggy back ecu, tuning, and whatever else. Does this sound like a fair price for the swap or should it cost more or less? Tell me what you guys think.

Seriously im finding it for 8...but thats with other things added to, including AC and power steering....
Ask around, find out if they have any credentials, ask if they warranty their work, and finally just like with every mechanic or paint shop, ask for the numbers of some of their previous customers to find out how they were treated.

Thanks for the advice, they've had about 12 customers that they have done the rb25 swap for. The owner invited me to stop by the shop when they start on the next one which will be at the end of this month, I think they know what there doing though heres the link to the shop www.diemanmotorsports.com

Over here in orlando I'm getting charged 7.7K just for the engine there in the car runing. And the dude was like " thats 4.5K for the front clip, this from mcklenkey, that from mcklenkey, the wiring from mck....... Dam. If I'm paying that much to the dude, he better do it himself. I can friking order everything from mcklenkey and do it myself, thats what I'm paying him for. I can get the front clip for like 2.5K rip off. Thats a very good price you got there
