Default ADVISE/INFO on a MY03 STI uk

Hi lads im looking for a bit of advise, my bottom end went on my scoob in the late part of last year. i gave it to a freind who runs a garage he took the engine out and stripped it to get ready for the repairs but since then i have lost my job, and im skint and no other income coming into the house. i would love to get the scoob back on the road but just canot afford to. and i need some my money to come back in to my home. i cant sell the car as it has no engine!! so my only other option is to scrap it and sell the parts on ebay and on here..but what am i looking at getting back for it?
gear box? rest of the engine (69,000miles)..? turbo?? doors?? THE WHOLE LOT etc... i havent got a clue so any advise and rough prices would be great.

GUTTED

THANKS DAN

Hi Dan,

Well the major parts that will sell easily are the gearbox/diff (£2k maybe), the interior (£400), the brakes (£500) and the wheels (depends what they are). Then you are left with the shell and lots of ancillaries like the bumpers, engine ancillaries etc. Assuming you can sell all those I reckon you are looking at around £5K total and you will then have to dispose of what's left. Not an easy decision.

And it will take time and those prices are the best you'd get, not what you'd get

Don't you have the engine in parts?

Let me know what you'd want for it as a whole package. PM me.
