As the title says o want a 2nd gen 3sgte.

I don't have that kind of money or I would. My old engine is blown and I'm looking for a turbo lol. I wanna go bigger but not huge the 2nd gen is plenty for me. Then I'll go onto looks I don't have a high goal like most guys I'm happy with 250

If you do not have the cash for a clip, I don't see how you are going to do a swap. Even if you find an inexpensive 2ndgen 3sgte (they are out there), you are nowhere near ready to put that baby in. Time to do some research man, you are a long ways off in terms of cost and parts.

This is true... i have 3K.... a clip is like 5. I was looking so spend u know like 1200 or so on the engine. i have my tranny and its rebuilt and i also have a new clutch and such for the tranny i wanted a 2nd gen bc it isnt TOO much hp and im pretty sure a 2nd gen engine and its amount of hp will be fine in a 5sfe. So basically 1200 or so on engine and the rest on other things that may come up along the way.

If that is the route you want to go there are a few 3sgte's on ebay in your range. As a matter of fact jdm planet has an st185 front clip for $2750 shipped. Also if bing works with ebaymotors (it may not) you can get another 150-200 off your price
