Ok...I'm gonna head up to Bellingham tomarrow and take a look at this engine.
Already checked with the seller and it's a full clip so it has all the essentials: -ignitor -maf unit -ignition coil -Intercooler -resistor pack -turbo pressure sensor -uncut harness -ecu -throttle cable He said it definately isn't a looker (of course it isnt its almost a 12 year old engine) but it has good compression. Was leakdown tested and has a start up warrenty. What do you guys think? Is $1,900 worth it? Or should I offer alittle less? Only has 52,000 so I figured a complete tune up on this thing and it will run like new. Any input is welcome! Edit: Forgot to add that it comes with mint (bad paint but no dents) JDM fenders, hood, and bumper...which I figure I could get some good cash flow from if I put them on ebay...Just saw a used JDM st185 hood sell for $300!

it's a 185, but its still pretty sweet.. it's too bad you can't use the body panels off of it. Shop around before you get it.. just dont jump in to the first thing you see, would be my advice. Otherwise it sounds like a good deal, and i'm sure you could sell those body parts on celica.net or ebay. |
