From Cosworth's short block, it shows that they use Nissan forged crankshaft, and I was wondering where this part is actually coming from ?

Nismo ? This was not in R-tune or S-tune part list from Nismo at all.

I am considering BC crank, but wouldn't it be better using Nissan forged instead ?

All 350Z cranks are forged. It's nothing special.

So, only parts like forged piston and Carillo rods etc. and balanced with oe block and crank.

I know Cosworth build really good engine, but this is kinda steep for $7,900 range.

You can definitely get a good built shortblock for less than that through a forum vendor.

Dude, its Cosworth. Of course its going to be spendy.

What is the goal of your build? Regardless what it is, there are going to be a lot cheaper ways to get there then by getting cosworth parts and even worse a complete cosworth shortblock. You could duplicate everything they're offering for about 2-3k by going with other aftermarket parts and having it assembled by another engine builder.

The price is steep but I have seen some vendors advertising for alot less then retail price. Another option is having a motor built with Cosworth parts for alot less. I bought a motor from Forged Performance built with Cosworth parts for around $5000...only difference it was a used block and wasn't assembled by cosworth. It was definitely worth the money in my opinion...motor screams...sound alone made it worth it.
