So today was cruising and noticed a loud noise. At first i thought it was a diesel truck then noticed oh snap its my car.
Pulled over and Heard a loud knocking noise. Loaded a video to the fb ephatch and almost everyone said engine is gone :(

So now I need help on deciding what I should do.
Should I sell my sc to help build funds for the k24

Or just go cheap and get the k20a2 or a k24a4

Thanks

Did he charge you shipping

Shipping was 275. Most auto wreckers charge 200-300 freight.

i ended up using RC garage they r right on 44th and University
getting a k24a2, exedy clutch, hasport mount kit but RC gave me best price and was really helpful in what i was wanting to do

i called all around town and most shops wanted an arm and leg for this swap
but me and my buddies try and get together at least once or twice. We normally will chill and shoot some pull might have some runs too but im down PM me your numbers and i can text u next meet.
You guys go out to pavilions?

Word man. Thanks for the heads up. Gonna contact them to do a swap and some extra work. Other shops seems to be no good! I haven't gone since my car has a pretty beat up clear coat lol! But anyways am down to go just depends how tired I am from digging pits at work during the week.
