Long story short, I'm getting screwed by the people that sold me my motor. So, I'm gonna buy a whole new front clip and just sell all parts I don't need. I will have SR Head, Block, Valvetrain, T25 turbo, manifold, Sylvia Radiator, fans, Injecters, fuel rail, Wiring Harness, ECU, Intake, ect. Should I be able to get at least a grand for all those parts listed? Also, if anybody would be interested in any of those, shoot me an email.

in the block or the piston.. y not just rebuild it... sounds like it would be alot cheaper plus you would have a built motor...

but if you ask me there is only one bad thing about buying a sr . when you buy it it is alway used so you dont know what kind of condition the engine is in. thats the only bad thing

Can you say..."run it before you but it?" If you are buying a clip then ask to see it run. If they say "no" then don't walk, RUN.

Yeah, I thought about rebuilding it, but it would cost over 2K to build it like I want. Yes, the clip will cost the same, but I can make a whole lot of the money back selling all the parts that I listed that I don't need. Even though, I still might rebuild it. I'm not sure.

Okay, I now have a S13 Blacktop that is getting installed within a week or two and will have all sorts of parts. Check the for sale section. Thanks.
