Like the title says, I've got a 3rd gen 3S-GTE that I will no longer be needing. It has had the compression checked, and it all checked out. This engine DOES NOT come with the factory W2A TMIC, so you will either have to source one from _Jim_ or somewhere else, or get a FMIC. But for the price of this engine, you can't go wrong. Has all the sensors, wiring harness, ECU, everything. $1,600 shipped to your door. Any questions, feel free to ask.

Has the engine been started at all since you've gotten it (can you guaranty that it will start)? Has the wiring harness been modified for LHD yet?

I can't verify the miles on the motor, unfortunately. I also have not gotten anything done with the engine, but I was given a guarantee that it will start. It has all been checked out. I bought them engine from Jim, and right after I paid for it, my parents decided to make me sell the car, so there's no sense in trying to drop it in my car. The harness has not been converted to LHD yet. I was planning to follow Batman's swap and cut a new hole in the firewall so I didn't have to deal with the wiring harness.
The better transmission for the 3S swap is an E153 out of the MR2's or Camry's, but I can get you an S54 just to get the swap going. It will be just fine as long as you don't go for more than 300 whp. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

The S54 would be coming from Jim as well. I was going to purchase one from him to include with the 3S, if it means making the sale.

It's not worth a lot, but I guess none of them are anymore. Front splitters sold to Michelle (Griffgirl) but they had the GT4 bumper cutout in them, so I'm not sure if you'd want them.

hmm this could be a really awesome deal.
But there's a Evo calling my name. If I had the cash now I would've bought it now but since I don't have it I guess I can't do anything about it but miss out on a great deal. Maybe if I replace the fuel pump on my Accord, and sell it in time I'll hop on this. -------------------- 1996 Toyota Celica ST 25th Anni. Edition #461
