Looking For A K20a In Manila

**swapcentral.ph** · November 5th, 2005 02:27 PM

Can someone help me out. I'm sourcing out a couple K20A's for my project in Manila. I don't necessarily need the whole swap. I actually just need a head swap. Can someone refer me to a place. Preferably Manila or Japanese contact will do to. I wouldn't mind shipping.

Thanx.

With old B18s still costing over 100k, I doubt that's possible.

Why Not??? Supply and demand. There is not as much demand on K-series motors in Manila due to it's impracticality to swap. Parts alone can cost anywhere between 150-300K+ and this is not factoring in the cost of the swap. So the demand is very low. I have actually been quoted 250K for a B18C5. I was actually shocked to find out C5's are more expensive. Anyway, I just thought I could find a better place since a friend of mine who used to import engines from Japan had mentioned that these motors are marked up by 300% by the time they hit these retailers. ...search continues

Good luck. Does your project involve a Jazz, by any chance? :lol:

If I had a Honda chassis, I'd be very interested in these motors also... especially since there's a motor mount conversion kit for the SiR already... :D
