nah I sold that engine last year, it wasn't worth the insurance hassles having it in my car. I spent twice as much on the engine as what I got for it... But now i really regret selling it, like I will probably regret selling my car.

I can send you more pics by email if you want.
I'm selling it because I have been offered a cheap, bigger car, and haven't got enough driveway for both cars.
Its had tie rod ends replaced, front cambre corrected and yellow springs at the back (and lowered a little).
As for work that needs to be done, nothing to drive it comfortably, but the standard brakes get too hot for prolonged hills drives, so there are things that could be done to it depending on how far you want to go, but i've put thousands into it so its a great car at the moment.
3SGTE conversion i've briefly looked into, need a 2S bellhousing/gearbox and custom mounts etc, tailshaft, upgrade brakes, and convert a East-west FWD engine to RWD, apparently the radiator hoses are difficult to adapt, plently of money required ($5g up).
3TGTEU is a better option, had one in the car last year for about one month, bolted straight in like it was made for it.
I'm enjoying driving it at the moment, but i really have to get off my ass and advertise it properly soon.
