2nd gen 3sgte tmic? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #18550 11 posts Started by celicaspeed
On ebay I saw a 3sgte looked like a st165 1st gen and they were selling it as a 2nd gen!Thats how I got screwed and I dont want someone else going thru what I went thru!But I dont know there might of been a st185 with the tmic water to air?Can anyone help me?
The Carlos Seinz/RC (europe/japan) was a 5th gen with a 2nd gen 3S-GTE and had water/air intercooling (pretty much exactly like the 3rd gen engine)


JDM ST205Blitz Spec NUR Exhaust, somewhere over $1000Needing another one 18000 miles later, bloody annoying.
It looks like a first or second 3sgte but with the first gen tmic!
Is there anybody here that can help with this!
What exactly are you asking? It looks like Mr. E answered your question in your first post.

New Toyota project coming soon...

Check on ebay under celica 3sgte and you will see the 1st gen 3sgte engine with a water to air tmic.But they claim that it is a st185!Could it be?Because mine looks the same!Let me know what you think!
Could there be a st185 from japan with that same tmic?Maybe the tmic is the same in japan?I dont know!
no its ST165.
