1.8T in a 97 A4, what else fits?
Hey Guys,
I'm coming from a subaru background here, but I'm doing a little research for a friend of mine with a blown engine in her 97 A4 1.8t (auto, fwd).
I'm looking around for used engines and found a few for $2,100.
Does that sound like a good price?
Also, is there any vendors that you would suggest shopping with/not shopping with?
My main question is what other engines will fit? Will a Jett 1.8t fit as well? In subaru land a ej25 fits in pretty much all subarus, most of the parts are interchangeable, I wasn't sure if that was the case with VW/Audi.
Thanks for any info.

how is that price then? 2100 seem good? I called a few places and got a price similar, but I'm not sure how the market is for these things.
Also, is there anything specifc (besides the normal) that I should look out for?
thanks

I'm not really sure of the going price for an engine. Check out the link and search for what you need. Tons of places to call.

I actually called 8 places and get similar prices..most were higher. I'm really more interested in this vendor's reputation.
Also, I know with my club ( NASIOC) there is always "some guy" who sells parts cheap. I wasn't sure if you guys had the same thing..figured it was worth a try
