If it's definatly a gen2 I may be interested in it for a friend.
Being in QLD may be a prob, If we found freight would you send it to ACT?

Yeah man the gen2 3SGE came out in SW20  ?(I think) MR2s, so if it's the original engine (ie never replaced) from your ST162 it is more than likley a gen1. Some pics may be able to clear things up thanks.

Hey there,
Definatly interested in the motor, i blew my gen 1 motor and am looking to swap it over for a gen 2 motor. So that engine was already in there when you bought the car? how do you know its a gen 2 for sure?
It runs well? do you know what year the engine was made?
cheers
Steve

That is not a gen 2, it's a gen 1.

sorry for the confusion guys, Gen 1 it is. it was in a friends celica st162 87 or 88 i think and he has put a 3S-GTE in.
the only catch is the distributor has been taken off, i've put it back on but it may be 180degrees out in timing.

I know it was an old post, but just wanted some comparo.
Have you left the brotherhood, or moved to the bigger brother supra?
I just missed out on an same model Celica, plus same colour, that was out of rego, body needed work but engine A1. Price was $500ono. It was just what I needed.
I am driving a late model hatch (mazda astina - the ugly one 2000) while I get my Celica fixed.
The mechanic told me that pistons 1 & 2 might be moving independantly of pistons 3 & 4. He thinks that my crank has sheared. (or something like that)
If the engine idles, it sounds fine, but if its revved to a few thousand (goes out of sync) it makes a terrible noise, like a box of pots and pans spilling down some concrete stairs.
Thats why I need a replacement engine. The car also needs full paint and new wheels, so my budget is limited.
Thanks for the reply.
