J-Spec engine - essex way

J-spec engine for grabs on ebay ... Thought it might just be a ZE inlet manifold bolt on .. then spotted the COIL lead on the dissy, its a ZE. He's after getting rid of the whole car in one by the sounds of it though.. but theres no harm in asking if he will split it.

Well the wheels look UK spec, don't know if they came on the J-spec as well.
It has a sunroof which I think is fairly unusual for J-specs (?) Can't really see any other details from the car pic.

Wing mirrors are folded in. I doubt the guy took the time to fold them in by hand to keep them in good nick... the set of drawers on the windscreen kinda prove that.

And how did you spot ANYTHING on that engine pic??

I'm gonna stick my neck out and say ZE

It could also be a KF-ZE (2.0 V6)

Cos its blurry, you need to slightly angle your head and nod furiously... all comes to together then

.. hurts like a bitch after a while though

Having looked at it again, and i'm a little more awake than last night (and my headache has gone), its definately got a ZE dissy on it, and yup John it could be a 2.0lt, but i think those inlet branches look quite thick. Shames he's not willing to break it up .. there are some good projects available there... if you have a transporter and willing to break it, and the price stays below 2-300 notes, you have a money maker there for your trouble.
