Is this a good offer?? Spares & Repair...

It's just by me and i'm tempted to break it... what sort of things sell - can imagine the turbo will get a bit...

Or are these relatively simple to fix up...? Or would it be an idea to scrounge the engine for another swap?

Sounds doable, but why is it spares or repair? MOT failure on rust or engine FUBAR?

Well he's had it on the drive for ages... and a white one next to it - he's keeping the white one, so not sure which he bought for which purpose...?? Will have a chat to him tonight abut it...

Which bits would be useable on my mk1... are the calipers usable? how about the whole brake setup - then i'd have a mk1 with ABS!!!

The intercooler is larger than the mk2 one as well, so that would be a welcome upgrade...

Is this a MK3 Supra with a 3S-GTE transplant then?

Nope - got my facts wrong... it's a 1g-gte I think... or whatever that equivalent power plant was.

'Tis a European D reg... still not sure whether it has enough stuff on it to make it worth even ?200 tho..?

7M-GTE I think for the UK ones

They usually just chuck a benny with the head gasket or get eaten by the rust monster, ?200 has to be worth a dabble though.

You're quite right mate - 7M-GTE, 232hp std output...

Are any of those engine bits interchangeable for a 3s-gte?

Old post I know, but the 7MGTE should have a CT26A fitted, which is a nice upgrade to the CT26 from a MR2/GT4.
