Fc3S 13b-re for a 1500?!

ok guys i was reading around a online used parts sale place i wont say what place cause if this guys serious im gonna buy it. BUt from what the ad claimed he had a 13b-re in a fc3s still twin turbo thats already amazing aftermarket clutch leather seats straight body etc.. now what i find hard to believe is that its for 1500! now isnt the engine alone 2 grand! and the cost of installation etc has to run to at least 4 grand plus the fact that the car had to of been bought. Now this is not the first time ive found a rx-7 on tihs site for a strangly good deal. i found last month a 91 turbo 2 with a j spec motor for 500 bucks! i seen it and i just was to late before it got sold for 500 bucks. im curioust hough if anyone bought a car for to good a deal? i also found my car in near perfect condition sept its ugly stock rims for 400:S

Well you could probably get the JC Cosmo Luce Sport 13b-re front clip for $2000 which includes the intercooler, turbos, ecu, wiring harness, etc..

You could cut costs by getting a junked TII for cheap & restore it yourself. The motor mounts could be fabbed cheaply or bought online. The TII fuel pump can support the OEM boost levels. He could reprogram the JH Cosmo Luce's OEM computer or use a cheap motech as well.
