shat, you need to get in tuch with a little smaller of a place man, you need to think, they are paying there end at japan, then paying for there store front.. the prices reflect that.

i am allmost 100% possative that a friend of mine said there where people selling B18C3's for Sub 70'000Km on them ( they are all diff obviously ) For about 4grand tops.

But dude, you make your choice, and all of the power to you. But you need to think, the C3 has more then 2grand worth of upgrades on it STOCK.

Blueprinted Block, Balenced internal's, Beter Oil pump, LSD ( Hlsd if im not mistaken ), B16 head that has a Hand 3 way Grind with a machine polish to give a nice ~12.x:1 compression.

jesus, i would love to see someone get all of that done for under 2 grand. ( Having the Ecu mapped for the head alone is atleast 600.. and thats a Valu job :) )

Indeed, all the cheap prices are in the states, but after shipping, it's the same price.

Give these guys an e-mail, they are a straight Dealer ( no real store front, they only Deal Japan -> Canada shipments., and some mint deals for whole engines. )

http://www.bigjapanese.ca/

And if i'm not mistaken, there ship lands in vancover, so you might be able to get your parcel Shipped to there rather then getting it sent to here ( toronto ) then Shipped back...
