Im not too hot on the early revs but if yours is a non turbo it would be a 3SGE, the GTE is the turbo engine
I think yours will prob be the rev 2 NA which was 158 bhp(but im not too sure)
If anyone else wants to shed some light please do, I might be wrong!!

Don't think-feel; it is like a finger pointing to the moon, do not concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory........

Re: What engine am i?
Sounds about right to me.
I think it was only the early rev1's that had the weak as hell FE engine. (About 120 bhp)

The 3S-FE was available at the same time as the 3S-GE car, but yes, that was a rev1 only.
boosch you have the 3S-GE, 158bhp, 0-60 in 7.2 seconds.

Have a look on the timing belt cover, ( big cover at right hand side of motor) it has a sticker on the side saying what type of engine it is. If its a FE it wont have a spoiler, unless an after market one has been put on.
