Was an auto, no engine or box, damaged all round, chassis damaged also. 10k.

Worth it IMO, VRT alone is touching 10k on these irrespective of auto/non-turbo or not.

One month ago I sold an R34 4 door shell for €9200.

Interesting, are you alluding that you could import one, say from Japan, and use this cars registration?!

Never thought of that actually.

Obviously very much illegal, but I could see people doing it.

What?

Like I said, if you import a Supra from Japan but to avoid VAT, VRT etc. you use the registration book and chassis number from a shell like the one for sale saving a ton of money. Otherwise it makes no sense to buy a shell like this for that kind of money.

Highly illegal and not condoning but it wouldnt be the first time.

I think you are the one alluding it now

It's going on all the time, classic cars, bikes and most of all tractors.. NCT checking of chassis numbers has helped a bit but most of this stuff has never seen an NCT centre.

Fair enough, but don't accuse me of alluding to it when I didn't one bit

Reduced from 17k to 15k. It looks like a very nice example but still a dreamer.

Hard to know what it is worth but it does look really nice. 7 or 8k might be right for it?

Titzon Toast

7 or 8k would be strong enough money I reckon. It's a very nice car but no way is it worth 15k.

People are pricing their old toyotas like they're porsches.

Some of them are worth more then quite a few Porsches tbf.

Mr2s generally aren't one of these though.

7-8k would be strong money for a n/a beams gen2 no matter how clean it is. The fact it's one of the last revisions kind of works against it since it's further away from vintage status.

When gen2 shells become very scarce and they're over that magic 30 year mark that's when their prices will start to rocket.

Eoinbmw

Its a very rare machine all the same very hard to value in this crazy market!
15k is mad money but 8-10 would probably get some lunatics attention!

Jesus that's a lovely little car. Always thought they were one of best looking sports cars available growing up in the 90's. Never had the pleasure of driving one.

15k is just silly though.

10k for a clean original turbo tbar maybe, If i was spending 10k on an old jap id be buying an rx7

You won't get a 7 for 10k

Anyone know if the Beams engine makes 200hp? I remember someone on here in some thread mentioning that he seen them not make those figures in the Celica. I know the japs have 100ron fuel and that is what they were tested on back in Japan.

3SGE? More like 180

wotzgoingon

That's not too bad a figure.

The RS Clio uses much the same system on the engine by advancing and retarding the timing and eventually got it to produce 200bhp.

From what I've heard they're notorious for dropping horse power as they wear.

Which 3sge beams engine? redtop fwd , greytop fwd, or blacktop rwd? all different power figures, but the non beams 3sge from a ssII celica / carina GTI seems to be best to hold on to power, 170 from factory and many of them dyno the same here

Redtop the same one that is in that MR2 but more common in Celica's.

Supposed to be 197bhp but never make it - not here anyway, they also seem to lose more power over their lives than the non vvti. The plain ole 3sge has more torque too (& a non interference head for those who don't like maintenance)

selectamatic

Few lads on here in a thread a few months ago said they saw the redtops make around 175 and 178 iirc at dyno days.

I've personally never seen a redtop on a dyno though.

Didn't you have an Orange curran that made strong power for a rev2 3sge?

I did, It was never Dyno'd, but did go like shit off a shovel :pac: They're a class engine, class car all round with the superstrut, had so much fun on track with it.

(you would be disgusted if you knew what I sold that little unicorn for

)

I was at a celica ireland dyno day a few years ago with the Caldina, there were at least 3 (non beams) 3sge's there and IIRC one made 175bhp, and the others 170 & 168, something like that anyway, enough for me to say they're a tasty unit.

Caldina got too hot and made 240 :rolleyes:

I know this is further OT, do you still have the carina selectamatic?

Ya still have it. Haven't had it on the road legally yet either :pac:

This winter should see that sorted and it finally tested. I've to see about getting a classic policy for a few cars then but I'll try and put a few months between that expense and Christmas.
