Question 2JZ S2000... Thoughts...

Okay, well in the debates of keeping my car, I decided that more than likely its going to stay with me irregardless of my reckless driving ticket.. Ive been looking around and I came across a site that sells full JDM 2JZ-GTE swaps for $6,999.99 + shipping/handling... At this point in the game, I am almost 10k into my car, and I know ALOT of the parts I have purchased wont be of any need, which I will more than likely sell for pennies on the dollar compared to what I paid for them... Anyhow, that isnt of concern, my concern is doing this 2JZ swap into my S2K... Any thoughts, concerns? Thanks! Also, Im not quite sure what all is needed to complete the swap, but a few people here in Manassas told me that for 15k they do the entire swap(purchase the motor and all the accessories and install it, ready to drive)... Is there anything else I could purchase besides the swap to try and lower the cost of the swap?

15K for a 2jz swap? That's cheap! Do it!

BTW: What shop in Manassas gave you that quote?

Not a word.

You gonna buy stuff for your car and then return it back again?

JNY, Im not here to start shit, it was a fucking question. Why the fuck do you care do you care about what I do with my parts. If I want to Ill throw them in the fucking trash like I did to your mom when I was done with her. AyJay, b/c I like the thoughts of a 2jz in a s2k, sleeper status. P Tuning gave me that quote. 8k if I had the full swap and just needed it installed and other random parts =\

Even the guy that completed the swap said there was traction problems. As well many little things that need to be done. Not to be like the common word spread, but why not build and boost the motor?

You know what else is sleeper? A supercharger or a turbo with a quiet diverter valve. Could probably save yourself a calm 10k also. Here's a picture of my 2jz swap with a shot of nas. (old but still fun to use).
