Guys I was looking at ebay and saw this 3sgte and wondered if it was a good price. Not that I need a new engine really, but does it come with the ct20b? I figured might as well get a whole frickin engine if the turbo costs anything over 500 bucks...

have u ever just thought about rebuilding ur current motor??...why do a swap....theres no guarantees that the motor is good or low mileage as claimed.....that motor for sale is from a celica....its got a top mount IC....

Thats a celica engine..... tmic. You would still have to use many parts from you current engine.

ahhh....I thought the intercooler was just sitting there. My bad...

I got a '94 JDM MR2 motor with the intercooler and ecu for $1160 shipped. That's with a 6 month warranty. Also the JDM motors come with a ceramic wheel ct26, so supposedly spool is faster than the US ct26.
