Complete 1G-GTE Engine
Complete 1G-GTE Engine
I have a complete 46,000 mile 1G-GTE engine for sale. It includes ALL ancilliaries, ECU, AFM, turbos, wiring loom, gearbox, propshaft, rear subframe, front subframe... doors, glass, bodywork, grey cloth interior and a free widebody MK3 Supra shell!
So, if any of you are thinking about spending silly money on a supercharger kit, why not just buy this car complete, swap the engine into your IS200 and get more power* and two turbos to boot! You'd still then be able to make money back selling the low mileage interior, shell, etc. It even comes with 6 months tax and 12 months MOT so you can drive around in it to your hearts content beforehand. The car runs perfectly and I'm using it daily at the moment. Everything on it works except the electric aerial.
You know it makes sense
I was looking at advertising this elsewhere for £2000 but for you guys I will take £1800.
* Stock 1G-GTE is 205BHP at 0.6BAR. With an intercooler upgrade (you would do this when fitting the engine anyway I would expect) you can raise the boost to 1BAR on stock internals, and also in the car (but not wired in) is an HKS AFR controller which enables you to lean out the fuel. With that set up on a dyno I think you'd see near to 240BHP. Obviously you could go full Stav and get a standalone ECU and a bigger turbo in the future.
I was massively mad at you for a minute then realised it's the whole car haha.
Fancy a swap for a subaru impreza turbo estate?
This is the ad I put up elsewhere, bit more info for you all.
Some of you might have seen this at JAE. I have a 1990 (G reg) Japanese import Toyota Supra MK3, model GA70 for sale. It has the 2.0 straight six with two parallel CT12 turbos, and a 4 speed auto box. It's the same auto box that the MK4 Supra uses, code A340E. The car is painted in Black Ruby Pearl (paint code 206) although to be honest it just looks like plain black. It has a grey cloth interior.
It was imported in 2000 and I am the 3rd UK owner. The car has done 46000 miles. I know that seems implausible, but I have ten years of dealer service history (Ford & then Toyota) from 2000 to 2010 which all backs this mileage up, along with the original KPH speedo head showing something like 69000KMs. It was converted from KPH to MPH by using a speedo head from a UK Supra in 2011.
Everything on the car except the electric aerial works. Aircon, electronic driver's seat, retracty mirrors, popup lights, etc. It's all there. The gearbox works lovely, kickdown works as expected, you can change the points the torque convertor locks up at and the shift patterns using the buttons on the shifter, and switch overdrive off which again all works exactly as you would expect. It has a few modifications:
HKS AFR controller - this is not connected. It alters the voltage sent from the AFM to the ECU to lean the fuel out. If you did want to use it I would recommend setting it up on a rolling road. It's easy enough to reconnect at the ECU which is just behind the glovebox.
Superchips analogue boost gauge
JVC MP3/CD head unit
HKS radiator cap, for +10BHP!
While I've had it it has had the fuel pump replaced, and new rear brake pads. The OSR caliper has been refurbished.
The roof needs either wrapping or respraying, and the rear spoiler could do with some attention. There's a bit of a scuff on the OSF corner of the front bumper. Those blemishes aside, the car has just been professionally detailed/mopped and has come up really well.
12 months MOT, 6 months tax.
Got someone coming to look at this tomorrow, so speak now or forever hold your peace!
