    I don't have privilidges to post in the for sale section but if any of you guys are interested in this then send me a pm. I have no idea what shipping an engine to Oz costs though.

    Shipping costs way more than a 1GGTE is worth in Oz.
    There's already a bellhousing on the way to me, or I might have been interested because your first post implies it's a manual. But even just across the north sea, shipping is very expensive.

    Thought that might be the case. Cheers anyway guys.

    Yep it's a manual so bell housing may be available if I don't sell it with the engine if anyone else is interested

    LMK if you give up on selling the whole thing, I may be interested in the whole box with clutch and flywheel if shipping permits. Depending slightly on shifter position. But do try selling it complete first.

    It may not be worth shipping the engine over but I have got several spares for the 1G that may be worth it:

    HKS F Con, GCC & FCD £175 + postage

    Spare Dizzy £75 + postage

    Spare clutch £100 + postage

    Spare ignition coil assy £40 + postage

    Yeah it's close, but I've had the whistle of the twins running a bar for a while so looking for something with a phat bass line ;-)

    Not sure there's space under the bonnet for a twin turbo set up. I think i'd go supercharger if I was going to force it, but just getting it in and running is top of the list at the mo
