Corey's in London said they had an engine with 60,000k for 800$
they say that for all the engines that they sell don't know haw they only get 60,000k on all of them.

I know there was a think in hong kong or someplace where at 60,000km it was cheaper to replace the engine in a car than pay the smog tax, so there were -shiploads- of engines that were (are?) shipped to n america every year.  My buddy was into MR2s for a while and he always got these 60K engines.  Now that I think about it I believe he swapped engines because it was cheaper than changing the timing belt/chain.
