You Americans are being STIFFED for your Japanese-import engines! An EJ20 turbo here is worth about $700US. An SVX EG33 is between $900 & $ $1300US, and I just bought my second for $800US... There's one for sale now for about $900, and one with a damaged camshaft (accident) for ~$370. -- Andrew Grebneff 165 Evans St, Dunedin 9001, New Zealand <andrew.grebneff@stonebow.otago.ac.nz> Seashell, Macintosh, VW/Toyota van nut |
