Yes, I paid $1600 for engine and tranny. Be thoro in looking and make sure you get actually pics and compresion testing results b4 u purchase and that they have at least a 3 month start up guarantee.
That engine looks good and he is a knowledgeable seller with much experience. I personnaly dont like the vvti but if u dont have huge hp needs than it can work out for you.

Hmmm.... I guess i gotta double check but i will have to say that they must be 40mm all around. They are staggared tho also. If you dont plan on getting a bigger brake kit then this set up is fine, but if you are then u need to let them know that its for the supra tt in order to clear without spacers.
