The LBGT Celica owner is very open to talk about it but doesn’t know much about cars… I believe it’s using oil (like ant 1zzfe) and had a $4K hit to the front driver corner which was fixed under insurance but sounds like it wasn’t fixed right cuz they said that corner didn’t align well… also was a Winnipeg car most of its life… and rust starting on the drivers door.

Also said there’s a scrape on the passenger side and sometime stole the antenna + cruise control stopped working.

If the rest of the car is in good shape that would be pretty rad. There's a bagged mid 2000s TT on 1552 wheels I see around north van and its fucking dope.

Curious how ppl buy these motors. How can you tell you're not buying a heap of scrap with 500,000 km on it?

Everyone's car is lady driven and parked indoors. Every motor I see has less than 30 on it lol.

They are usually out of wrecked cars, so check the VIN on the block or head and run it. Get the last registered milage of the car.

that's too much for a used 1.8t. you should be able to do better.

anything that's TT specific will already be on the popped motor.

I'd buy a cheap 1.8t (basically any variation) and put the spare money into a fresh turbo and software. drop em in and send it.

so ya - fun project

That's my car actually haha, thanks for posting... looks like it sold to the first person who came to look at it. I got so many emails though Jesus... didn't think I priced it super low but ??? apparently I left money on the table. The other one 320icar posted is nice too but he cut a lot of corners in his build from the looks of it. Cut dash shifter, drum brakes in the back, much higher mileage and no AIR CONDITIONING... so important!!!!.. .lol... tradeoffs I guess.

^ that's really nice, 6 speed, pretty low mileage for a 2005, timing belt, clutch done. Fun sleeper!
Some nice upgrades, downpipe, stereo, projector headlights, cat back exhaust. As long as it's not too too loud and a VI magnet.

I think it's a good deal for both sides, maybe I could have gotten another $500 or so... it's a well done swap... but there's definitely some stuff that's needed to carry it across the finish line and I have lost interest/don't feel like putting more money into it. The buyer seems like a super nice guy.

That thing would have been a riot to drive. Need to post those on Revscene first! Not that I would have bought it, but still. Ha

A running TT is $6450 apparently, so that sounds like a lot of hassle to save $350. Granted you then have a fresher motor. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...5987377708312/

Screw that. Haha It’s frowned upon for the lurkers, that post their overpriced G35s. Lol. This thread is about good deals, cool cars, oh and BMWs and Porsches. Lol.

I think this one is being flipped, was for sale not too long ago, listed for $7K by the previous owner. Not sure how much it went for.
