Add 400 or so if you want assembly done as well. Its not as expensive as you may think to get stuff done. I was planning on assembliing it myself, but then thought, they have plastigauge, micrometres, calipers and dial gauges, and have the balancing equipment as well, why not. Couple hundred bucks for piece of mind.
And the SR is the most overrated engine in the world. People like it cause its newer. Thats it. If you look at what u need done to one to get it upto scratch, the same money put into a CA will produce better results. Cam on bucket people!
And as rathies said.... re-enforce that box. Take it to a specialist to check the synchros, and the bellhousing. Im not 100% sure of what fails, but bellhousings crack, and syncos get fried. Being upto 20 years old... id get all drivetrain components checked for damage as well (diffs, cv's and axles)
If anyone EVER finds one of these, I will sell my left nut for it They are fucking impossible to find.

Ill make it a mission in life, just to get that left nut
