Well-priced full 20b's

I'm sure anyone looking for a 20b already knows of these guys. But anyways for those that dont they have a few in stock.

^ ya it'd take some cajones to do even with a fairly disposable income.

pretty much just have to assume the $4grand you spend just getting the 20b is null and void (cuz you never know what hurdles you might run into). I guess if you got a "useless" hunk of engine laying around you could always resell it for what u paid.

what a great project for those with disposable income.

You forget the fact there is a 98% chance you will need to rebuild any JDM engine you get. There is a reason they aren't in the cars anymore (Yes, some are wrecks).

rx7store have them rebuild so you pay a little over 7k for a good engine ready to swap
I think its a great deal.
