st185 clip price, is this cheap? Options

[Uppitycracker]

Well I was thinking about going the supra or rx7 route for my next car but I came to the conclusion that I want more of an everyday car BUT it would have to be swapped for sure, I got a taste of speed with my mr2t and wont settle for anything less.

So anyways I was just looking around at engines and clips to get an idea of what I can expect and saw this on venus auto. They are asking 1500+ shipping, is that pretty cheap or average?

They also have 2 2t215 clips in stock!

well you get what you pay for and you pay for what you get. most of these venus clips dont include any body parts and are sometimes missing the gauge cluster.
most st185 clips go for $1500-2200

i payed $1800. it has the gauge cluser, so i have proof of milage, comes with the hood, that i can sell to make some money back, and comes will the full awd drivetrain, if i ever would feel tempted to try awd. so its a great deal for all the stuff thats included.

you also cant forget about shipping charges. with the rising cost of fuel, its getting more and more expensive to ship a clip. my shipping from washington (west coast) to philadelphia (east) will be around 800$.

i think a good guess would be to say that you can get a full clip with shipping for around 2.500. its really a great deal, if you think of how much most turbo kits or superchargers sell for.
