brianwe Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I have an engine thats just come out of my Japanese import Supra, its done 170,000kms though it does have a blown head gasket & was pressuring the water system before removal, though besides that it ran sweet, the block and head have not been seperated. The whole unit is just sitting there ready for someone who needs a donor engine to start a high-power rebuild. The coil packs, inlet manifold and fuel rail are all there, sorry I dont have any pictures, though I think that we all know what the basic 2JZ GTE block looks like. So if your keen and looking for a future project engine to begin and need the basics of an engine then by all means drop me a line.

brianwe Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 I have trawled the net, found engines in various states of repair and disrepair, some are just blocks to be re-machined and built up, some complete but stripped. Prices usually range from £280 upwards even from non-runners, where I do know this engine ran really well allbeit the water pressurisation problem on the water jacket. As I said if you make me an offer at the end of next week I will contact whoever is most serious about this as a project. Also I am just really keen on gaining some space where the thing is sitting at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jspec Germany Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I may be interested, but there's the issue of shipping cost. Anyone know a place that ships large freight for cheap to Germany? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianwe Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 Hmmmm....got me thinking. You reckon one would fit in my '98 Corsa?! Make a nice street sleeper Well yeah, it would give the Corsa a wild drop-nose Californian sort of look...... Maybe then I should start the bidding at about £275 for the project engine, what do you think? So anyone offering £275 then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
