Default is this worth my time?

i just got a 93 integra the body is all messed up and the interior is all riped out but the motor has

turbo garrett t25 with waste gate
turbo exhaust manifold
aftermarket intake manifold
aem cam gears
and a 2 2.5 inch exhaust

i was thinking of pulling the motor and fixing it up but when i took a closer look the turbo wheel doesnt spin the oil is overflowing (i think its from a blown head gasket) the radiator is filled with green liquid. would it be worth my time to pull the motor and fix it up and sell it? or should i just take the bolt on's off and leave the motor bare?

I would replace the motor, it sounds pretty serious, check local junkyards, they should be pretty easy to find LS motors. Get that swapped in and get to work on the interior and exterior.

Last time i remember "green liquid" was Antifreeze, and that's a good thing for radiators to have.
If you didn't put too much money into buying the car, just take out whatever is still good and scrap the car, otherwise try to sell it.

You bought the car now you're asking if it was worth it? It sounds like a piece of ****. If the car is really beat up in general you can bet the mods done are half assed too. Are you trying to sell the car or the motor? Either way you can't buy an 11 year old car and try to fix it and make a profit. I'm not sure what your goal is here...

Bottom line is there are plenty of average condition (at least unmolested) g2's for a decent price, there's really no point in buying a piece of crap unless you want it to stay a piece of crap.

got the car for free so its not costing me anything my plan was to take the motor out and take it a part and if it was messed up sell the good peices and if the motor was still go which it isnt since the turbo doesnt work. i think the guy over heated the motor and or blew the head gasket because oil is over flowing with engine coolent and theres oil everywere around the head. right now i took the cams out of it and i have no idea if there stock or upgraded any ideas?








i really dont feel like rebuilding it since im in the middle of rebuilding my supra so if anyone wants something post and let my know ill sell it off for dirt cheap.

aftermarket intake manifold ill get pictures
cams
aem cam gear blue
full long block basicly injectors and all

aim screen name is overclockingamd

Are you parting out the car? If so do you have the stock front bumper lenses and ash tray?

i dont know what type of motor it is doesnt really matter since theres a nice 6 by 2 inch hole in the side of the block im in the process of getting the turbo out and the fuel rail something is striped and not letting the intake manifold out ill look at it tomorrow.
all of the interior is F***ed up and the exterior isnt worth my time to take off so all thats good is the head, intake, turbo, exhaut, cam gear let me know if you want anyhting.
