description

JDM Toyota 3S-GTE 4th generation ST215 turbo engine. Comes with starter, alt, P/S, A/C, engine harness, ECU, intake manifold, throttle body, exhaust and turbo manifold, no turbo. Great opportunity to upgrade the turbo. Automatic 4WD transmission has been removed and is no longer available. This engine came from a JDM 2001 Toyota Caldina. Needs coil packs, coil pack harness and injectors. I have a 2nd generation 3S-GTE turbo I can sell separately for this engine. Good compression and leak down test. Star JDM, phone # (801) 309-3911.

they are asking $1000 obo

here are some pics





what do you guys think? is it worth it?
i emailed him and he said

Hello, how are you? This engine only has 32,000 miles. Yes I do allow pick up, I have a small intercooler I will include with this engine. I also have a turbo from a 2nd generation 3S-GTE available for sale. I think everything else is there to get it running. You can come by and check it out today. This ST215 is very rare, this is the only one I have ever had. Give me a call.
