super cheap turbo JDM motor/part out

I'm in N. Atlanta, working my way to V6 and have a ton of stuff I do/will not need...I'm trying to find someone who wants to pay me $$$ and come take home (remove from car) everything I will not need for the swap. Trying to get rid of turbo, motor, ecu, harness, etc. in one big bang (anything not needed for a running, legal V6 swap) (keeping transmission, axles, etc.)
I think this could be someone's cheapest way to a turbo swap...just make a decent offer and it's yours. Open to any offers, any reasonable offer takes it. I can provide tools (no air ) and engine hoist and help with removal...can work with out-of-towners and get this thing ready to snatch out and go.
Trying to sell everything at once, you can sell what you don't need, maybe break even on your end.

Post-up or PM with any questions, ideas, bumps, offers or whatever!!!

Maybe I didn't understand your post correctly, but are you saying that you are going v6, so you're parting out your jdm 3sgte?

If so, what revision (year)? How much for the ECU?

yeah...sorry for the confusion.

GOING V6

PARTING OUT 93 JDM 3SGTE Set-Up, trying to sell it all at once, hoping to have someone come pick-up/pull-out everything and be done with it...or make an offer on ECU, selling that won't take away from the engine much.

whyyyyyyyyy would you do this.

i have done a v6 swap and its not all that great. yes its a fun car but i just got done building a 3sgte that im breaking in right now and gonna be shooting for a reliable 450rwhp. my honest opponion keep the 3sgte and build it. the v6 is a pain to get to pass emissions if your gonna have to pass emissions. if you really want to do a v6 swap buy yourself a mr2 shell and build it from there rather than tearing apart a good running turbo. my opinion its not worth it. just my 2 cents from experiance but i didnt destroy a good running turbo

i spent a total of 3500 to get mine running including all parts plus the mr2 shell in almost perfect condition. with me doing all the labor. keep your turbo motor in your turbo car

its not a pain to pass emissions, i passed and i didnt even let the cat fully warm up. if the v6 cant pass emissions, then that means every single es300 and v6 camry wouldnt be able to pass. i dont even have EGR.


if he wants to see what a v6 mr2 feels like then i can give him a ride.

i'd love to view a v6 in person, you in atlanta? what motor are you using?


I4toV6:
I'm thinking the emissions would only come down to the exhaust set-up...as everything else would be exactly from the stock, easy emission, V6.
...as to tearing up a good car...i was having electrical nightmares on this widebody project, wanting to keep the shell and have a swap with high mileage potential

So your parting a 3rd gen or a 93+ gen2? Cause if it's the gen2 I'll take the throttle body.
