1JZGTE Engine - Read Discription Carefully History of the engine as follows.. It's a great runner, Iv known the car/engine for many years, but some tiny fragments of turbo blade went through the engine when one of the turbos failed.. It sounded a bit tappy for a few days while we were driving the car in/out the shop in morning/evening while we were sorting out a new engine.. The compression went down to 95psi(warm) on one of the cylinders so the owner wanted a new engine.. After a few days it stopped tapping and the compression went back up to 120psi(cold).. Conclusion is that a bit of turbo blade got caught under a valve, then got spat back out.. Iv put a bore scope down and can't see any damage, but that's hardly conclusive.. The car this engine came from has 200k on the clock which is a mixture of Kms and Miles, estimated 150-160k miles. The engine is still pretty complete at the moment, I was saving it for myself, now got another one I want to use instead.. This is the compression results I took just before I took the engine out, it was tested while cold(had run for 30 seconds to drive car onto ramp), results as follows.. 120psi 120psi 150psi 155psi 155psi 130psi What's Included: (Exactly as per pictures) Tall Block (unopened) Rocker Covers Aux Belt Tentioner Sump Assy Crank Pulleys (Aux pulley looks newish) Plastic Cam Belt Covers & Coilpack Cover Starter Motor PAS Pump Bracket/Cradle Inlet Mani & Throttle Body(With Idle Air Control Valve & Air Temp Sensor) Fuel Rail with Injectors & Pressure Regulator etc Water Pump & Rear Housing & Thermostat Housing (Soarer type, not Hydro Fan type, ideal for viscous or electric fans) Water Outlet Neck with both Water Temp Sensors Water Jacket Pipe Oil Filter Housing Knock Sensors, Oil Pressure Sensor, Oil Level Sensor Price: £500 firm Collection preferred from Guildford Surrey GU1.

I paid double this for a damaged gearbox setup from Dale; he weaseled out of it. Turns out I wasn't the only one who's been shafted by him too. Do with that what you will.
Wasn't damaged when you bought it.. What do expect from a 20yr old gearbox designed for an 230hp NA car, being used on a 300hp drift car..?!? As you can see, I have listed this engine as potentially damaged, which I would have done with the gearbox IF it was damaged..
I expect it not to have a f**ked input shaft bearing which I noticed from the first start up. Before even driving it. I also expect the bellhousing not to have stripped threads where you bolt the slave cylinder to. I also expect the clutch kit included to have more than about three miles of life left in it. I also expected it to go into gear nicely. Reverse was hard to select, some gears graunched. You knew all of this before you sold it to me. I could tell by the way you were speaking on the phone that you knew you'd been rumbled. I expected it to be in 'perfect working order' as advertised. Does that sound like perfect working order? The amount of people who said "Are you talking about Dale?" when I asked for advice over this said it all really. Buyer beware.
