mine was just over 6k, with a single turbo swap and all the supporting mods for it.
i also did all the work myself, as well as the wiring

so you should be a little below 5k then for the swap, as long as you do all the work. the wiring is tough, but can be done, it will take some time

look at my build thread i have a list.

might be cheaper to go for 1jz mounts(if rubber part is bad you can reuse 7m's), parts store P/S line from a 2jz (mine was 58$) and i bought my lower pans for 150$ that was from a 1jz and included oil baffle, pickup, bought a new gasket for the pickup, gasket material for pans, etc etc

i would buy new bolts for the lower pans too... every time i torqued mine the head broke off :) and set aside about 1000$ in alittle stuff" fund. oils etc

lots of other stuff to factor in. be prepared to have your car down a long time crazy worked on his for a while heh

i would urge you to do something like a 1jz :) i kinda wish i did at this point
