*Side-note-> I was supposed to get a ST205 3SGTE front clip with E-153 tranny(recieved 5sfe b/c they said it was too hard to install a E-153)

Man..... I got my engine from toysport the other day and when I was looking at it, it did not seem like the 3rd gen 3SGTE. At first it looked good, but I obviously noticed that the intercooler was air-air not water-air, but I could be wrong. (the 3rd gen 3SGTE intercooler has a black plastic cover with small hoses going into it, right?) Plus toysport argues that the 3rd Gen 3SGTE does not have a C20 turbo and it is nonexistant.

Well, the engine I got has a CT26 and the intercooler really looked like it was air-air. But....if they gave me a ST185 WRC, I would not mind, but that also has a water-air, and I don't know what that engine looks like.

I am pretty sure they gave me a 2nd gen 3SGTE.

I am not 100% sure if I am right with this, but if someone can help me, so I can go argue with them this weekend since I also bought the GT4 hood and bumper from them and I am going to go pick that up from them.

**The hood would not do any good for me if the intercooler is air-air...right?

ok . ok. Once again. I will have to talk s*** about ToySport. DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM. THEY ARE THE WORST COMPANY OUT THERE.

Even if it were your last resort, dont give them a call.

Now about the tranny. They should have never sent you the 5sfe tranny. You CLEARLY asked for the E-153 tranny, so that's what they have to send you. They should'nt give a rats a** if it's hard to install or not. U GET WHAT YOU ASKED FOR. All they can do is inform you that it's difficult to install, in which case you would have to make the decision on which tranny you prefer.

As for the motor, take a picture of it and post it up and we will be able to tell you what you got.
