Hi Guys, I have potentially big plans for the future, so I would like to see if there is much interest in this. It's the engine that is currently in my car, the spec is as follows;

 

 

Started with an 80,000 Mile Engine, bought from a member on here. Was an auto engine and loom

 

Block- Decked, Bores lightly honed, Full big end balance(Crank, Rods, Pistons), New Bolts in the big end and main caps, ACL Race bearings and rings, new OEM thrust washers.

 

Head- Skimmed, Valves refaced and lapped, full reshim, new head gasket.

 

Ancilleries; New oil pump, new water pump, new Timing Belt.

 

Turbo's. Stage one Hybrids J-spec's with steel internals. They have never seen over 1 bar which they are running at at the moment. Car made 340HP at the AFR day at 1 bar, which is about right(Probably a little more on the road), as stock boost of 0.8-0.9 will see stock power of 326.

 

The turbo's have sub 5k miles on and the engine has seen sub 6k since the rebuild, 1000 of those miles we're running in mileage.

 

Bad Points; Dodgy thread on one of the rear main seal bolts, predates me owning the engine but it has never leaked, and I fitted a new rear main seal when I rebuilt it. Front Main seal is leaking, I think I put it in too far(Ohh er!), so I will change for a new OEM one when/if it sells.

 

 

The turbo rebuild alone cost me £958, so I think asking for offers around 2k is about right for this, as a used 2JZ GTE these days will set you back £1500. PM me if you are interested :)

 

FYI; Not ready to remove for a few weeks yet!
