Short story for me...
"Price for a standard GEN3 with upgraded Heat exchanger and upgraded pump, and plug and play harness 2800 shipped to your door." I got the GEN3, with no heat exchanger, no pump, and no plug & play harness. Sourcing an aftermarket exchanger and pump is looking around 300 to 350 not including the attaching bits, harness not complete estimated cost 400 dollars. If you need further details, I'll edit them into it. |

I was reading through this thread thinking "that really sucks for all you guys" AND THEN I SAW HIS USERNAME!
In early 2010 we tried to work out a deal where we would trade some parts. I would mail him my HKS Gen III 272 cams and he would mail me stock injectors, stock timing tensioner, alternator bracket, stock cams, a 5s starter and a few other things. Most of the parts I needed ot finish my engine. Of the stuff that he sent me the alternator bracket was mr2, the timing tensioner was frozen shut, the 5s starter was for a 5s mr2 (different plug on the starter but still works), the cams were fine and so were the injectors. So I got stock cams and injectors with some other junk parts in exchange for $700 HKS 272 Gen III cams. I had to keep bugging him to send me his parts after I sent mine. So I sent mine and waited 6 months to get the stuff. I'm not mad at the guy, these things happen. It was in the past and it was a minor setback. I just wish I would have known about him before hand. -------------------- -Jay
