The swap is going to be very expensive and you will need more than 2k and tons of patience.

2k including the motor???? No.

A swap kit is available though. Are you sure it's not an 02? That's when the Spec V's came out. If you're looking to spend 2k not including the motor, then it's doable :)

I'm pretty sure theres some wiring to be done, the kit is mainly hardware, let me see if I can find it online.
