How much does a rebuilt motor go for? I paid 4K installed, but pulled it out after my wreck......less than 18000 miles on it.........13BT........I am weighing options because I cannot do my GTUs swap.......I have two choices......store it or sell it........along with the entire drivetrain.

 

unless youre planning on using it, you might as well sell it, alot of NA guys are looking to do the TII swap. i might be interested in purchasing it, if youre willing to sell.

 

but i wasted all my savings into fixing it when it broke....I feel horrible selling it.....we have been through so much together......I don't even know hoe much to ask......I know I won't get what I spent..........

 

i know how that goes, im starting on my 3rd now. i think i might need a motor for this one, i suppose ill salvage the motor out of my (previous car) wreck.

 

Any idea on how much you'd want to sell it for though?

 

Well, if you store it, you just need to make sure you maintain it while it's being stored. Crank it by hand every once in a while, make sure you've got oil in the cylinders to keep those seals fresh. Hang on to and swap it into a future car.

 

Sell it to ME- for the vert- i'm jonesen for topless boost!!

 

That is what I am thinking of doing......My GF doesn't want me to sell it......she wants me to start a project in the near future...........where would I find info on how to maintian the engine? Thanks....

Hassell
P.S.........I dunno about the cylinder part of the comment

 

What would you guys offer for it....MAZDA rebuild.....less thyan 18000 on it......I have the SAFC and AVCR along with the turbo timer.......

 

I've got a buddy looking to do a 1st gen install, he'd use the engine and transmission and maybe the SAFC And all that too... but he can pick up a good J-Spec like I did for around $1100 with the trans.

 

I'm just gonna keep it....eventually after I pay off my credit cards and **** I will start my project: no more GTUs.....maybe turbo Vert? I dunno....bills first.

 

good engine you should get about 2500-3k for it. with install that means more for install

 

yeah.....it is in awesome shape, that's why I don't want to let it go..........turbo Vert in the future? If I have all my bills paid by this Summer, and I have a new permanent place to live then I will begin a project.

 

Hope Ur Project goes well..
Give me your motor!!

 

NO!!!!! I will start a new project this summer.....I just need to pay credit card bills, and housing.....then turbo vert?
