Whats a 3TGTE worth?

thaphatty · Post by **thaphatty** » Sat Aug 14, 2010 10:30 am

Have a surplus 3TGTE coming up for sale, and have no idea what its worth.

Have just done the head gasket on it, has a silvia T25 on it, bores looked good internally - no ridges. exhaust manifold is standard that someones welded the nissan flange to, hence it has a few cracks and wouldn't last forever.

no idea on the kays of the thing. when I did the HG I removed a very shoddily made copper one - so i can't guarantee it hasn't been molested in other ways.

Thoughts?

Hard to say really, not a huge demand for them anymore. Have you got the loom and ECU as well?

Also, what kind of T25 is it? I think some Silvia's had a T25G, which is meant to be a better turbo, as that's what THASHZ has on his 4AGTE AE82

top secret atm, all will be revealed tomorrow night if shit goes right

oh so right.

I can tell you that people who like TA23's are going to be really, really mad though :lol:

unsure, unfamiliar with nissan turbos, stamped on the housing?

actually have another spare T25 as well thats reasonably mint

(reasonably mint = mint within reason)

CA18 = T25
S13 Redtop SR = T25g (incl blacktop 180sx)
S14 Blacktop SR = T28 (PFL) or T28bb (some FL)
S15 Blacktop SR = T28 (Auto) or T28bb (Manual)

Can't help with how much the 3T is worth but they don't come up often

chur for the info, but not even sure what model nissan the turbo(s) came off as they came with the car

will probably end up just $1 reserving the entire shitpiss

did you have it running after the HG was replaced? depending on how cheap edz would let it go for I may just be keen for the TE71 haha. but would have to be super cheap.

The turbo is probably worth more than the engine.

I sold a 3TGTE minus turbo ages ago for $400,
as that's all I could get for it.
