I believe that's true, I see a lot of na motors there, the 3sge the including BEAMS motor, and also the 3sfe's. :lol:

There are quite a few nifty deuces on craigslist right now..

http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/c ... 59347.html

Minty AW. Doesn't look like it has 220k km on it at all!

Super low mileage JDM hardtop turbo. Interior looks absolutely mint, but the exterior can use a detail. Might be worthwhile to check out if RHD is your thing.

http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/c ... 81750.html

Fairly clean yellow Mk2. Mileage on the low side too, only 177k on a 20+ year old car. Price kinda seems a bit low for the lower mainland though, maybe it's a rebuilt.

http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/rch/c ... 04183.html

Cool little red mk2, with lots of extras like the EMS gauges, 93 lip and that huge amp. Not bad.

In case anyone is interested, I passed on this one after I went to see it this afternoon: (http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/c ... 96436.html) <--- no pics. It's a black hardtop N/A.

Additional info that's not in the ad:

    210,000k
    A/C not working
    JIC coil-overs (shocks in unknown condition)
    Aftermarket front bumper, he didn't keep the stock bumper
    Hasn't been driven in 3 months (possibly longer)
    Interior is in decent shape
    Reverse instrumentation panel (white)
    Frunk gutted of spare and cowl
    No balancer on rear trunk
    Stereo gutted
    Deep dents are on both doors
    Doesn't appear to be in an accident, owner is unsure
    He's willing to drive the car to its destination but then take off the 240 wheels that are on it

From the ad:
91" mr2 hardtop. No turbo no t-tops.
Local
Lhd
5 speed manual
Black / black cloth interior
Needs some things to finish:
Aircare,hand brake cables,
wheels/tires (wheels don"t come with the car -sold wheels separately)
Driver side carpet put in (took it out to clean)

I'm guessing Pete is speaking of the spring in the right hand side of the trunk. I remember hearing it referred to as a balancer as well.

Yeah, that's what I meant. That's what it's called in the Toyota OEM catalog (p/n 64550-17040).

Here's a clean white '93t on CL. Looks like it would make a nice DD for someone once the minor T-top leak is fixed.

Anyone ever look at the black '94T out of Vernon on Kijiji? Was for sale in Smithers last year, looks like the same seller. Sure shows really well. Nothing beats a '94 spoiler!

I hadn't seen that one Adam, in my neck of the woods too!

I'm sitting at the airport right now, but when I get back I might need to go check that out. Looks like it even has the OEM TDSE

Yeah. Looked like a nice car. It popped up right after I bought my car- I may have bought it had the cards fallen differently.

It's not mint to me. Both front fenders and both rear quarters are missing the pinstripes from all 4 corners. When I see that it makes me very suspicious as to if it's been painted because of rust repair. If that's the case, he'd have to give me the car for free to deal with rust that will come back.

$15,000??? Maybe if it had 40,000km and not 221,000. I think $7500 is a more reasonable price since it has leather and power options.

I don't know why but every time I read, "New body spray paint, toy blue" it makes me laugh... and I think this car is actually gaining value because I remember the car being cheaper in previous ads!

Not bad, $7k for a pretty nice car.

Also found this plethora of great parts. I can't pick anything up at the moment since I'm broke as heck, but I thought you guys should know.

http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/rds/p ... 35627.html

Things that stand out are the 93 crossmember, 93 brakes with mc, rev 6 headlights, and 93 LSD.
