It depends. Are you going to do the swap yourself? Or get a shop to do it for you?

you will need to budget around $5000 for it, the motor about $2500-5000 for the motor and another $1500 for the instal and then about another $1000 for other parts.

And depending how hard they work on it and who is doing it, 2 days to a week.

Intercooler and misc parts, the wireing is expencive since you need to move the ecu to the other side and also the bottom and top harnesses dont mesh.

Btw, Dont think of the Kat as a budget choice, because it will end up blowing your motor

My friend had a SR20DET GTIR swapped in his 02 sentra gxe. He got the motor for like $2250 plus $1100 for the transmission, $1250 install, and $1150 for extra parts (such as new motor mounts, transmission mounts, harness, wiring, misc.). He was lucky enough however to get a JDM front clip with his motor thrown in for free which reduced his costs not only cause it was free but because he was able to resell some stuff.

Either way your looking at $4500-$5000 for the motor, transmission, ecu, harness, and any other misc. expense or $6000-$7000 for everything plus install.

Definately easier for the person doing the swap if you have the front clip.
Buy from Varun (on SON), and I'm sure he will find someone to install it for you.

you need a one person garage, Princess auto for stands and hoists and make a friend who is good with wiring, Just remember, with motors, whatever you do dont take short cuts, they cost in the end.
