so lets see:
used s2k: 20k
2jz by these guys: 16k
big turbo/fuel setup: 10k (probably low est.)
not including the rear/tranny/clutch.

As long as the person doing the work can do fab work and has a welder there is no reason why it couldn't be done in a garage.

well on a side note, i just saw my buddies S2000 in the library parking lot and i forgot how badass that thing is. his is a steel grey with red interior, completely stock. he autocrosses that thing and supposedly its an amazing machine. i never had the opportunity to drive one but supposedly with a good driver they are capable of amazing numbers. then again they are also one of the hardest cars to drive.
