Not really that great of a deal after you include the import taxes and shipping he's going to charge.

buying/selling subforum???
1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of moneyI'm not really an asshole, but I play one on the internet.**** Photobucket
I am not sure what objections you have wannabe. To me, this looks like an excellent clip. If I were doing it over, this is exactly what I would look for.
The reasons are:
(1) 33,000 miles. Thats like new.
(2) ct20b - 300whp capable turbo
(3) 540 injectors rather than 440
(4) a/w intercooler
(5) more agressive cams
(6) better intake manifold
(7) The clip is a 1998 which is after they corrected the problem with some Gen III blocks, IIRC.
(8) you get the mounts and cables included.
Parts availability for gen III is better than it once was. This would make for an excellent project and one fast, reliable car with just BPU.

610 (with 6 days left)
750 shipping
200 - 380 "import taxes"
1560 - 1740 Total (so far)
That does not include the GT4 hood, bumper, or fenders.
Add in the 1400 for the body panels and you're already at 2960 - 3140.
I've seen ST205 clips with body panels and projectors go for about 3500 which I'm sure this total will exceed given the 6 days it has left. The only thing this particular clip has going for it is the fact that the rear dif. and axles are included.
I also don't think it's a 1998 because it doesn't have projectors. The only place I saw 1998 was on the picture showing the frame number and that was refering to the CCs. LOL I've made the same mistake.
I wouldn't say it's a horrible deal just that I've seen better. Shipping seems a bit high and I've never seen a seller make the buyer pay the import taxes. It could turn out to be a great deal if the price stays low but I don't expect that to happen.

My mistake.
Now I understand that you are talking about overall value compared to other 3rd gen clips. My point was that a low milage ST205 clip is a hard find and this engine would make some 6gc'er very happy.

I just want to add to this.... If some one did this swap and they used a gt tranny they could not use the mounts or the shifter cables from this clip.
I've tried it.
The e153 tranny im not sure about.

Geph, how do the ST205 cables compare to the GT cables (length, beefiness, end hardware, etc)?

I assume that the other end of the cables are lined up. Interesting that the GT cables are longer. Given Sphinx's luck with ST205 cables and the E-153 and my shifting difficulties, I wonder whether I should try a set of ST205 cables....

hello all
I say this clip when it was at 9 day listing - now that its at six days I'm happy that I am still the current high bidder - but knowing that it will probably go over 2k. My highest bid so far is $1,500 - so any one here want to battle with me over this. I may end up going up to $2,800+ all the fees, but you never know --
good luck to any one who bids against me --

Did you guys see what he did with the Beams clip? if the bids dont go as high as he likes , he will yank it and and repost it for best offer only starting at a higher price.

They might be shorter than GT cables this is the only picture I have.
The gt cables are now in my car.

205 bottom
GT left GT4 right
I could check the st185 cables to see if they are similar to the 205's
