That's why you have a broken toe - it was a warning from the rotary gods. Continue to **** them off and they will smite you.

motor and tranny- 1200.00
exhaust- 300 to 600
rear end- not needed for the swap (you should eventually do it)
ecu- 75.00
afm- 50-100
downpipe-100
tune up and fluids-100
pressure sensor- 30
walbro fuel pump- 100

(these are all estimates, prices may vary but not much)

i think that just about covers the parts
use your n/a harness
labor can vary, but i would think around 500.00
i know your busy but if i was you i would try to d it myself, either plan a weekend or 2 saturdays or some thing, if not probably like 500.00

for those of you who have done this swap as well feel free to add anything i missed

right, i read that, and it does help, but im looking for what im going to be getting into, because i will be doing this myself, but i have heard some off the wall stuff from having to get the driveshaft custom built and all kinds of retarded stuff...so if you have the gory details please if you dont mind, are those the only things i will have to use to get this done, or is there anything specifically tricky about this swap?

TII is bigger, I think 8" vs 7"
TII is always LSD, N/A is not
TII holds more power

Mazdatrix sells a TII Trans to N/A diff driveshaft, but its expensive.
