    Default RB26DETT Swap Z32

    I would like a quote on a RB26 block + swap into a 300zx along with all parts that are needed to get it up and running.

    Basically, drive in drop it off. Come back and drive it home pricing.

    Thanks!

    It's a niiice swap when done right. Their quote wasn't bad at all. I know the motor (r34) it's self runs for 6-8k from other sources.

    JBalla could you run the TT swap quote to me

    Thanks!

    I don't understand why you'd post a question asking for a quote in a public manner, then hide the answer to your question you asked publically?

    The quote wasn't given to me in public. So like I stated in the above post I wasn't sure if it "should" be posted for all to see. They may not want others to know

    I can say that is was a fair quote for the fabrication needed.

    That could be considered shady on there behalf. I would understand if you wanted it to be kept private as the customer, but they are the ones offering the service and you are the one who asked for it so others could read.....

    Also, just curious why you are choosing to invest so much money into a rather heavy and inexpensive (3-5k) car? Not often you see a car getting such quality "mods"

    The customer publicly asked for a price quote. Do you understand what that means? Either the O.P needs to learn how to properly PM someone (hence the word PRIVATE) or you can stop being shady and post the price in the same manner that it was asked to be received.

    I still dont see why this is a big deal. All of our other customers have received their quotes via pm whether they have asked to have it that way or not and i dont c you in the other threads. Look at the other shops threads they are pm'ing their customers even if they dont ask for them. I think you should go in their threads and let them know also. Here are some examples:

    True. Yet it's still being asked publicly and there is a demand to know what it is in this thread. Hiding a price of a service to do something you offer to anyone is not exactly very professional now is it...
    I understand if the customer wants it kept hidden. That's a separate issue but she obviously made the request where thousands could read it.

    We are not trying to hide anything. I just felt the fastest way to contact the customer was by pm'ing which it seems like all the sponsors are like that. Next time ill remember to post it in the thread. That way i wont get in trouble with you. Im sooo very sry sir..........

    its prob $20,000 or close to it. That isnt a cheap /easy swap at all.

    If she wants the quote quiet then she is entitled to it. if you would like to know what it was, CALL LETHAL INJECTION

    It wasn't much at all. If anyone wants to know the quote was around $14,000 including "everything" drive in with a car, drive out swapped.


    Most quotes were around the same price or more. Every shop is different with their quotes because of the quality of their work.

    All sponsors on this forum PM prices to the OP, that's what I've experienced.

    Lethal Injection's quote was very fair to the work being done and I've heard from many that their work is top notch.

    Reason why I was interested in the quote was that it's not a common modification, but has been done by a few members of rbz32.
