I was looking into it seriously 2 years ago, I will see if I can find the thread 
... I was 95% going to do it instead of doing my shagged old saff I had bought loads and loads of parts for, but decided it was too much hassle and I would end up going stupid with it, so canned the idea. 
... Andy G wasn't widley known at the time, so Scotty was the only one I knew of who really had the experience. Price at the time seemed ok for the amount of work involved, and dont forget foci were a bit more £££ then. Seeing the quality of AG's work on his car I can't see it going wrong 
Get some pics up Mark it sounds like an awsome project
... The next thing I am having ( after a house) is a bike or an Ultima GTR, can't beat either for bang for buck

i think i may have mislead people here.. dont mean the total for a house is 15-20k, im talking about deposit for a house in order to get a mortgage
seriously now, certain mortgage advisors i use can get a mortgage FOR THEMSELVES with only 5% deposit on a house
i unfortunatley am not on that level yet but all in good time.

carlo please pm me a price 
And what else do you really need of a saph apart from the engine and maybe gearbox.
better use a tremec box or something, 200sx back end/suspension, aftermarket adjustable stuff are cheap and seeing as the builder would be starting with different suspension mounts it will be just as easy.
and
also, 5% deposit for a house for the mortgage advisers? if they telling you that theyre telling porkies! they can get alot better than that mate.
