I live in Northern Virginia, outside Wash, DC. My shop was Datsun Dynamics. I don't have my multi-page invoice in front of my, but the prices went something like this: core ($3k)
machine work ($2k)
Ceramic coating (don't remember)
turbos ($2k - 900ea)
Intercoolers w/ ducting ($2k)
Injectors (don't remember)
Blitz SBC-ID/power meter (about $1k)
Clutch, Driveshaft, ECU from Wolf (more $$)
New radio w/ XM receiver ($500)
Labor to put it all together (more $$) Add it all together with tax and it came to just under $18k. So far no problems at all... I'm still breaking her in, but even at 15psi now, she moves... and that's cutting off at 5500rpm. The car was Stage III for many years and I think the extra boost w/o the extra fuel and cooling to go with it caused the early death at 136,000 miles. That's why it was so hard to turn down things like ceramic coating the pistons. Overkill, maybe, but in the long run it'll keep the engine running. Plus if I wanted bigger turbos later on, the block's ready for it. If you're ever in the area, let me know... happy to take you for a ride! Otherwise, happy to answer questions. Scott
