He has offered me a free set of overfenders to cover up the damage. But I don't know. Let me know what you guys think.

All depends on whether or not your willing to replicate something like this.

1995 240sx SE Gold Edition (Power Windows, Power Locks, SunRoof)
S13 Blacktop SR20DET
ER Spec Professional SR Swap
SPEC Light Weight Billet Flywheel
SPEC Stage 3 Clutch Kit
Walbro 255 lt/hr High Pressure Fuel Pump
Wix Oil Filter
Wix Z32 Fuel Filter
Megan Racing Downpipe
Megan Racing Test Pipe
Apexi Hybrid Megaphone (Only one in the US)
Short Shifter
Greddy M-spec FMIC Kit
Greddy Style BOV
Koyo Aluminum Radiator
Samco Silicone Radiator Hoses
Greddy Radiator Cap
Flex-a-lite Dual 12" Fan setup
ER Spec Intake
JWT Popcharger Air Filter
ER Spec Radiator Cooling Panel
ER Spec Crank Angle Sensor Cover
NGK Iridium Spark Plugs
Taka Stainless Steel Turbo lines
Braille Light Weight Slim Battery
AutoMeter Single Gauge Pod

To me, its a bit overpriced...
But fiigures the parts list will run you ball park of $6k, before the cost of the car and the peace of mind knowing that the swap is done right (Enjuku Racing).

Yea, your going to pay more because your just not getting it from joe schmoe who was doing his first SR swap in a shed, your getting it from a professional reputable shop who is willing to put their name behind it, which definatly means something.

Consider $4k for car in good condition ( I would consider them giving you over fenders for that little dent for free more than generous)

Blacktop motorset ~ $2500

thats $6500 right there, plus all the little odds and ends and upgrades the car has, plus labor. If you have the money, and don't want to do a swap yourself, this is a good foundation in my book.

Is it a steal, no. Is the price justifiable, yes.

I am not going to try and attempt to do a swap, like Joe Schmo, and mess it up. I'm not some Nissan certified mechanic and I wouldn't do work on a car. I would rather pay the extra money and have it installed right and professionally. But I do want to get into a 240SX with the swap all ready completed. I am extremely poised to buy this. Is enjuku racing really that good?

Yes. They are one of the premier shops when it comes to innovation and doing everything right, no matter the cost. Most drift shops are just one step above being complete hack jobs, where they import containers of parts and hope that when they blindly throw em on people's cars, they work. Enjuku = peace of mind for sure.

If you're looking to have a solid platform to build on, this would be good. As was said before, it's not a steal, but it is justifiable.

They have a good rep for sure, and have been doing this for a long time. Friends that have ordered parts through them have also said they are always cortious, and hell, they sometimes get their parts in the mail (VA) before their card has even been charged. Good people from everything I have heard.

Hell, if you buy it, I want commission, lol.
