charge an arm and a leg. also you need to remove the engine, pull it apart and look at the damage. chances are you might have only spun a bearing. you can have the heads checked out by a machine shop. Also it is impossible to tell if the heads are warped with them bolted on the engine while its still inside the car?? i would think you would ahve to plane them at most, and then remachine the crank and replace bearings, pistons,rings, and wrist pins. and of course new headgaskets. these are all suggestions for an alternate to the buying an imported engine which could possibly have the same if not more issues; paying an arm and a leg for a swap, then changing out every sensor with the ones off your blown motor. (I did both routes)
JDM swap costs roughly 3k shipped
-mech labor costs roughly 2k for the swapeither way the motor has to be removed and replaced. but y not rebuild your current motor and then you know whats been done. Its your choice but i wouldnt give nissan the money! you can email me if you want some good JDM sources. hope this helps ~matt~
