Ok, i just got done calling a few local places and 1 places has a 3s-gte freshly rebuilt for $1400 for a snd gen model or $1200 for a 1st gen model., and since it is local i can pick it up and use the waranty should i need to. Is that a good deal?

If i can get a 3s-GTE for that much or less than it seems like a waste to spend $500 on a 5s when i could spend a little more for that. though it WOULD have to wait a few months for the $$$ if i did that.

What all is needed for a GTE swap? anyone know or have a link?
