Ended up having to pay about 5k for mine after finally loosing my patience. I'm also in CA though, maybe it's just more expensive out here.
That's what I was afraid of. I don't think I need more than 200 HP anyways until I'm beyond comfortable with 200.

Apparently the Toyota 1UZ can be had very cheap (under a grand from what I've heard) but then fabrication would be an absolute pain. You'd also have the Nissan Nazis breathing down your back for not using a VH45 or whatever goofy engine Nissans have.
