Engine prices

[NoHachi]

Hiya,

Does anyone know of the prices of some silvertop engines for sale here in Europe? So far I have seen only rediculous prices over here while these engine in Japan and the US seem to be around the 250$ and 500$ mark. Its often cheaper to ship te entire engine over yourself then buy from some of the importers..thats pretty crazy. Have prices started to come down to a more realistic level lately?

Just trying to figure out what my options are..

I think the answer is "NO",
Just not enough FWD levins & Corolla FX etc in Europe,
I paid EU1000 for my Blacktop off a guy in Ireland, there seems to have been alot of Levin BZRs & BZGs imported over the past number of years and are now ending up on their roofs
I would say the majority of 20v in Europe are in Ireland but everyone knows their value due to the huge 86 culture.
You could go down the road of getting a front end cut shipped from malysia, but you never know what the internals are like

i had a quote about a blacktop delivered from Japan, including ECU, harness and some other thingies, and it was something about 1500eur being installed already in your car...

I wouldnt be worried about the ECU & Loom, Get VEMS & then you dont need either + its distributerless so no need to cut the bulk/firewall or hit it with a big hammer,
Id just look for a bare blacktop with history

[adomz]

yeah, also a good idea!

well, someday i'll go that route!

I'm not talking about the blacktops.Its the silvertops that are so rediculously priced..everyone swaps them for a blacktop.

Do they have a silvertop for 5-600E? I rather doubt it, but might be interesting.

the silvertop can be had for around 150 euro , this is when it´s still en Malaysia , or japan,This is for a engine,that looks and perform great,untested engies can be had for around 80-90 euro.
g
If you buy only one the freight cost is aournd 230 euro,from malaysia.
The blacktop is more expinsive, but not much.
The GZE isnow almost impossible to get,if you dont get a frontcut,and that is around 900 euro.

And yes i know ,the prices seem cheap,but this is the price,that the engines are being sold for, i have just got a 20feet container chipped to Denmark
