Best 3SGTE? Tue, 14 October 2003 10:32 Go to next message
Hi guys.

I'm a little bit new to the whole 3SGTE thing. Like a lot of people I haven't really considered one before due to the lack of availability of RWD engines.

I was wanting to know two things:

Which engine year/model/donor car is the best engine?
Which engine year/model/donor car is the best one to convert to RWD?

A few reasons why would be great.

No 3S-GTE is best to convert to RWD!
But if you really wanted to do it the ST185 is the way to go!

just curious as to why you think the 185 is easier/better than the 205?

If you use a 205 3S-GTE you need to buy a 185 pump and fit it and the oil filter arrangment is a stuff around!
And the 185 is a later engine to the 165 Rolling Eyes
