hi i picked one up off fleabay to strip and rebuild, found one that had headgasket failure and paid 100 pound for it, Ive now stripped it and all looks good bottom end wise so happy days if you get one fom ebay then i would suggest getting a headgasket failure engine rather than bottom end problem less damage

have fun

Might be selling my JDM V7 EJ207 STI block soon as just doing an engine swap. It's a good unit, and had a bottom end rebuild in late 2008. I've just swapped the engine due to an Exhaust Valve problem on Cyl 4. Other than that it is good and showing a good even 125 PSI on the other 3 Cylinders before removal (cold).

In some ways I prob should of gone for a top end rebuild but just could not handle more and more cost so got a 40,000 mile block with a 3 month guarantee to drop in.

Given as it is a relatively straight fix if you have the time and once done it'll be worth £1250+ I would prob sell for around £500-£600 but would need collecting.
