I'm new and need help ASAP - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

NotchStang · 12-07-2010, 08:58 PM

This is an emergency so I'd appreciate it if somebody can help me. My mom's '91 Toyota MR2 blew up today, the rod broke off the crank and put a hole in the block. To save my mom the time/trouble she is going to buy a whole new motor for the car because it is a daily driver and she needs the car back on the road ASAP! I am looking for either the naturally aspirated 2.0L 3S-GE or the Turbo 2.0L 3S-GTE, either one must be in great running condition with no problems what-so-ever and all parts must be there (low mileage is also preffered). It cannot be highly modded or too fast, it's just a daily driver that gets my mom from home to work everyday. Please let me know if you have anything....thanks.

Besides that, I'm also a member or Phillystangs.com and I am 15 years old with a 1988 Mustang 5.0 LX 306 Stroker project car that is coming close to being finished.

so when did picking a "fight" with a 15 yr old kid on the internet become the cool thing to do?

Welcome to the site OP.

Good luck man. I'm actually in the search for a 99-04 Saleen or a Termi(if I can find one at a reasonable price). Can't beat how cheap they are to mod and are fun to drive.

I have never heard someone start talking msd when mustang first comes up.. Its usually gears, cylinder head, compression and cam, i guess times change. 31 spline turns into something else.... 600cc? who the hell talks cc on domestic. 24lb, 30lb, 38lb, 42lb and so on. i give him credit for starting an automotive knowledge before he's able to drive. next time...why not help him?

and a decently built 306 makes 400hp+ without "forced air", hell gears and basic bolt ons get you deep into 13's even with a high milage motor.

now to his original post... unless u plan on doing a build with the gte stick n/a replacement over the japanese 2.0l or turbo... used 5sfe's can be had for quite cheap, usually between 400-1500 for a full longblock. just be sure to change things like the waterpump/t-belt/cam seal/crank seal/oil pump o-ring and oil pump spagetti gasket...it'll save a ton of time in the long run
