So I may have found a TII motor, trans and ECU locally for $550. The guy says he bought it for $1300 to use in a kit car, realized it didn't fit and wants to get rid of it now. I know it's kind of risky to buy a motore without seeing the results of a compression test, but I figure if it turns out to be blown, I coulc make most of the money back. The TII trans would be worth at lewast $200, maybe $75-100 for the ECU, a couple hundred for the good rotor and housing, the irons, various external parts, etc.
And if it's not blown, it's a good-ass deal for a turbo motor and trans
Hopefully I'll be able to come up with the rest of the money before someone else nicks it (I hate being a typical broke FC owner
)
