I want ...

Alright, I was making my rounds through ebay when I came across these - I apologize if they've been posted already, but anyways ...

2002 ACURA RSX TYPE-S ENGINE SWAP!

Anybody got $5K I can borrow, just for a couple years??
The other one I wasn't sure about, because I'm no mechanic and have no idea if this is any good at all, but

2002 Acura RSX Type-S engine

It sounds like it's damaged and would need some repair, but for someone skilled enough it could be a really good deal ...

Just thought I'd point those out in case anyone had some spare cash laying around that they didn't know what to do with.

i have $650... will that do?

EDIT: People are saying 10Gs for a swap... Why doesn't anybody just take that extra money and just buy the RSX type S. Is there any reason? I'm being honest.... why swap when you could have a typeS for less.

because.. they are dumb? Im not sure. the point of swapping older gens is because you can pick up a lightweight hatch for cheap and stick an engine in it for 5K... you got me as to why you would buy a new car for 10K+ only to spend another 5K on and engine + whatever to swap it... all the while being just as heavy if not more so.
