I know parts the the imortal sub are not cheap, but £1600 quid for a unit (ebay 220227503651)...

would have looked nice in mine though

i did bid for the unit but did not have enough time to confirm (engine numbers were different) the unit would drop into my car, who ever bought it has still got a unique deal, prob won't see one again on ebay etc

I, like many others thought about a bid , but only for the parts. I would have gone as far as £450 or so....but these engines are suppose to be 'bomb proof', and I would rather keep the original engine No. in mine.
(unless your's is goosed)

If you want a shiny looking engine, then elbow grease is about £20 quid a tin,....you could save the rest for petrol

I thought of bidding, but I actually need a gearbox or two worse than I need an engine.

My estimate was making £800, going maybe to £1000. How wrong can you be?

If you had a car needing an engine, it would be a really good buy. Ahmed, I suspect it would have bolted up in your car. SFAIK there are no significant differences in SVX engines, they should all be interchangeable. In the case of the gearboxes, this is not the case because American and Japanese gearboxes use a different Speed Sensor 2.
