well i picked up a k20z3 from a friend of mine it has 2 spun rod berrings depending on how fucked up the inside is ( crank) im planning on rebuilding it and proly selling it or maybe a k20 swap depends on wat i can get parts for
but how much would it be worth if i rebuild the bottom end?
and wat would it cost for a swap sense i already have an engine

Last I was told, it was around $5,000 for a K20 swap.. But that included the motor, so your prolly looking at $2,000 to do the swap with rebuilding the bottom end. I have seen a K20 do some sick s*** in an EK hatch. But he had a build K20 out of a Type R RSX. I was told to either do that one or the K20 out of a Type S RSX. Not to familiar with the engine codes, so I dont know what it is out of. If its out of a Civic, I prolly would sell it myself, but its up to you. This is just what I know, sorry its not a whole lot. Good luck, let me know what you decide to do.

Is it the complete engine? All of the sensors and what not? Personally I would rebuild it and use it haha.

Ok, then thats the motor you want... I would do the swap myself, specially since that motor runs between 3000 and 6000, depending on where you look for one. My buddy has one thats built in a EK hatch with no boost, and we did 0-100 in 4 sec. and no im not exadurating. Its worth the swap, Id rather have that in my car any day lol.

My fault bro, I thought you put z1 on your OP... The z3 is still a good motor, but yeah I would build and sell. Like it was said earlier, you can prolly get 2500 or more depending on how you build it.

It was the z1, and I belive it was the Type R tranny.
