Hello - Newbie here. I drive a celica but my friend blew the motor out of his GST last summer. He's got 2k saved up so far but juts told me all the shops said a engine would cost him 4k plus install. This sounded kind of off to me because I know I can import a JDM 3SGTE (Front Clip)for my celica for 2500.</P>


</P>


I was wondering what the average price would be for a engine, and engine code? </P>


</P>


- My friend being extremly smart neglected to ever change his oil and it eventully sludged and all theshops said it needed a rebuild.</P>

 

its a 4g63t motor, try to find a 6 bolt rather than a 7 bolt. You can probably get a whole engine for like $1,500.

 

um.. your friend shouldnt even be driving if he cant take care of something as simple and/or cheap as an oil change on his car

 

your friend is not to bright... no wonder you joined here to tell the story and not him cause I would have just laughed at him. Gee I wonder why my motor is junk????

Theengineer has a nice Turbo 6 bolt for sale for cheap it needs a rebuild but it is much stronger than that stock POS 7 bolt motor

 

You can get a race motor for that much dude.

Check ebay for a 6 bolt motor! they are like $1000-$1500

What a retard. Your friend is an idiot. Tell him to get a ****ing honda. At least then he can destroy something that nobody likes.

 

thats way to much to pay for that. You should be able to get away with under 3k

 

The dude dosent deserve to drive a GST
