Dislex can give you the exact figures if he wants to but I reckon in the 60k region.

ja - i haven't really added up the costs properly, scared i might get a heart attack hehehehe.

One thing i can say tho, if you get a motor built - or even just everyday modding done by the calibrator, be prepared to pay. And i'm not saying he's expensive - cuz he isn't. But he's got VERY high standards when it comes to quality, no short cuts.

My car has never felt as tight as it does now - and it's not even tjooned yet!

This phrase is what some people still dont understand. Only one way and the right way.

Hey Calibrator, how much you reckon for a full rebuild on a SR20DET, XMS, and install into an S13, Including all the extras.

i reckon you could look at pretty much what i paid, but you gonna have to add on a new clutch, a FMIC (if you don't have one) and some other misc items (like an engine :P)

yea need FMIC but just wondering, Im not really going to add extras now only later, just want to rebuild a stock motor and put it in my s13 . Well rebuild maybe to strong a word, more like a recon sort of thing, just replacing all gaskets with new ones, and check if all is well with internals , head etc, then in it goes.

Do you have a gearbox as well?
Price will depend on what work the motor needs if any so its very difficult to give you an exact price.

You can work on about 9k to fit and map the XMS.I cant quote on the rest without seeing it and knowing what condition its in.

Here is a silly question. I figure an XMS is either ike a uni-chip or piggy back or daughter board, or full engine management systems like dictator.
So which one is it? :?
