My dilemma,I want to do the J-swap but after researching I am finding that it may be cheaper to just repair my C30. Which is crazy to me. How is it that a $500 motor ends up costing me $5500 or so in parts to go into my car when the parts to replace my crank, 2 rods, and oil pump with all gaskets, seal, pistons and so on is only $4700. IF i wanedt to put a j-swap in my civic I would only be out approximately $4000. This includes new axles and 6 speed trans.Just curious, sucks to be in this position. I learned that the car was supercharged for quite sometime and I'm sure caused some premature wear. I have 165k miles on her and just lost oil pressure on the highway. This baffles me.
