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!

I'd score it then man, if you know what you're getting, dont want an st205, and the guy was good enough to do a comp / leak test on it. This post has been edited by sinner96ST: Apr 24, 2004 - 6:52 PM |
