Well i charge 250 for a rebuild, that is labor only (That is you pulling the motor out of the car), parts are going to run you about 800-1200. If you bring me the motor not pulled aprat and i have to clean it, that is a extra 100 bucks to clean the parts.


Porting can be from 200-350 depending on what you want done, I dont do P-ports just Street to Bridge, if you want full bridge ports you have to get one peace apex seals

I will do everything, Pull the motor, rebuild, Replace the motor for 1000 + Parts.

If the motor is blown then you will have to find a new rotor and housing

lol yeah it does, i cant believe people over in japan just cut up cars like this. what a waste man. but yeah the frame on the front clip is very use able, its frame is straight. would be perfect for an FD with a wreck front. Anyone interested let me know ok.
