I recommend Bumble Bee. Niel and Jimmy. Niel is very **** and meticulous about his work and Jimmy is by far the best wiring guy in South Florida. 954-650-3268

I agree ultimately your car is going to end up there who ever does it . But as I've always stated do your research

Stan 754-422-4796
Larry 954-445-4927

So now you have three #'s to call may the best price win..

If Larry does it you'll spend 2300-2400 on a motorset and it will end up at Jimmy's for wiring.
If you doing it with Niel, You'll spend the same on the motorset because it is most likely coming from Larry and will end up being wired by Jimmy.

I am not sure how Stan operates. So I can't comment,
But whatever you do, make sure jimmy wires it and do not, and I affirm, DO NOT, go to Jimmy directly because he will drag his feet on the wiring. Jimmy works fast for these 2 individual so if you go through them you car will be done in a matter of 3-5 days.

I was recently quoted about $4500 for a complete 1jz motor set and installed by Neil (Cool guy)...... But I would have to wait two weeks to get back the car...

Is the set you are requesting a VVti? Cuz 6k is about right. Maybe he can do a little better but at the end of the day you will be at about 6k with anyone else.

Trust me! Do not go the cheap route. It will hurt you dearly! There are far too many stories here about trying to economize! I can't stress it enough!

call me and will point you in the right direction

I have to second Bumble Bee racing. They were the first to do a 2jz into a bmw wagon in SF and made the swap look like it was a factory setup. Jimmy is by far the BEST wiring guy in south florida... seriously.
