I'm about to buy an '01 AP1 and that has about 114k miles on it. And i know the engine has only so many more mile before it gives up. Maybe another 70k- 90k more. And I still plan to keep this car many many years from now because i am still in my undergrad at USC. Just doing my research and here are my Questions:


1) Where can i get an AP1 motor? Online? I am located in socal if that helps any.
2) Does it have to be a '00-01' AP1 engine vs a '02-03' AP1 engine because I know the ecu's are different.
3)What price is a decent motor going to cost me?

Thanks.

 

1) on here, ebay, and some online shops
2) 00-05 will work
3) price varies.. ive seen long blocks from 900-2500 depending on year and mileage. 04-05 tend to cost higher obviously

Yea but noone wants an AP1 tranny.

F22C if you are replacing the engine. It's a better engine overall and if you get a tranny with it, that's another upgrade.

 

Who said your motor is going to fail? I don't understand the completely random and baseless numbers your just threw out.

 

Miss Cleo?

 

Haha Miss Cleo!

The numbers I put out is just a guess. All i wanted to find out is where can i get a new engine if the worst happens.

Thanks for the helpful replies.

 

i just bought an 02 s2000 with 170k miles it runs fine and doesnt smoke a drop. Take care of it an do the mainteance youll be ok

 

chances are by the time you need one if you do the maint properly. The prices will either be much higher or much lower than today. take your pic
