Is $1000 for a 2002 WRX motor complete with turbo and intercooler to cheap? Could it be stolen???

 

nah, you should actually set it lower, at about 200, then sell it to me

 

Thats way to much money. You would be crazy to buy it.

By the way, can I have the phone number of the person selling it? You know, to scold him for taking advantage of you like this.

 

I serious. I called the dude and he sounded all wierd about it. Like he didnt know much. What is the best way i go about paying for it. Paypal? I am looking for help not jokes. I dont live by this person they live in cali and i live in IL so i have to take the guys word for it.

 

No, you don't have to take his word for it. Is he a known member on this board?

If something about the deal doesn't sound right, I suggest passing and going with either someone local or a known vendor who can ship the order.

He is on Nasioc and is a newer member. I asked him for pics and stuff and i will see if he responds.
I am on such a tight budget that this deal sounds so good.

 

just remember, sometimes deals that sound to good to be true, are. good luck in your purchase.

 

Ive seen them go for less, ive also seen them go for alot more. The best deals are always when either a) you know the seller and its a hook up type deal or b) the seller doesnt know anything and has the price way too low

 

Considering that you can play $1000 for an intercooler alone (new) and $500 for a used turbo, $1000 for a complete engine sounds too low to me -- you're liable to get it installed and find that cylinder 3 is warped, you are leaking oil from your rings and your head gasket is shot because someone BURNED that engine at the track. Seriously, people pay $450 for just fuel rails, you can't expect to get an engine in decent shape for that price. JDM crate EJ20s are in the $3500+ range and STI engines are $8500.
