Man, sorry to tell you...but will probably cost more to fix the car than you paid for it..bro had a 91 CRX he totaled in Aug of last year, and his replacement parts for the damage to his engine alone totaled over 3000...When it comes to the Me too Cars, you're gonna pay out your a** for an older model regardless. Trust me, I speak from experience, and for all that ****, 3,000 is not a bad deal. The engine alone prolly makes up about 1500 of that. Transmission is prolly around 500+. ECU, Wiring Harness, mounts, etc....if Brady said he'll do it for you for that much, he's cutting you a hell of a deal. Honestly, if you'd have come to me asking all that and all under 3 grand, No offense, but I'd have laughed and told you to go buy yourself another car that runs.

wiring up a dx for a swap is hard. Thats why most people either get the SI or the HF not many people do the DX. 3000 is not a bad deal at all. Labor is a bitch do it your self LS is a easy swap.
