Some lady just hit my friend a few days ago and tore the front end off his car. Radiator is gone, I d/k about A/C. He's offering it to me for $1,000. This includes tranny. I'll prob have to replace the clutch. Sounds good but the motor is at 200k miles and his engine check light is on.

Would this be a good buy?

If I DID get it what problems could I expect?

Thanks for all your help guys.

damn thats a lot of miles! how does the motor run?

I drove it, feels pretty strong, but the engine check light comes on sometimes. It sputters sometimes in idle. Maybe cause he was running straight headers or no exhaust.

perfect candiate to build up.... id just buy the longblock since u have the SI tranny already...

Si_GReddy

lol, I don't have an Si. I drive an AT EX. I was going to get an Si to start off with but I couldn't because of funds. I'll eithe get an Si or a hatckback now. I'd most likely drop the motor in a hb. Thanks for the info bro.

I think that is a good price for the GSR engine, even with the high mileage.

Rebuild that bastard!

I agree with everbpdy else. the motor and tranny is def a good buy at $1k
