just found this LINKY Runs well. mechenically sound, just needs a tidy up (paint ect) just phoned the guy (sounds lke a farmer confused ) and its still up for sale. i dont mind the bad points as i have 2k in my pocket right now.

just want to see what people think before i go see it. i think its a bargain with all those mods.

im in work right now and im ready to pull a sicky just to go get it!

Dont worry about it not having a lsd as you can weld the diff or buy a facelift lsd for less than a £100.

Buy it its set up well had all the right mods and is at a very cheap price.

Go on you know you want to.

Stu macs your bestbet.

Normal things like smoke from turbo. engine rattle ask him NOT to start the car before you get there listen for rattles from the bottom end (bigends) rust shouldnt be anything to worry about dont forget the s13's a old motor now.

My cars got a tappet noise which isnt anything to worry about.

long story short NO!

I drove down to bristol...The car was a right ~Rotter! he put his foot down and the dam thing nearly exploded. there was hole's everywere, the inside was soaking wet, places had the paint sanded down, bubbled paint everywere, rust everywere. the list goes on and on! I was so p!issed off with him for not mentioning any of the mechanical problems AARH!

told him to sod off, got in my car and onto the laptop to find any others that might me local, but forgot my cable to connect my fone for internet access. So i drove 90miles back north to birmingham to use my dads pc. got there and went on sxoc. noticed the car that i earlier wanted to buy was back up for sale. sent him an email & pm and waited for a call. 2hours later he called so I took his address and headed to Hastings down south. got there late at nite and loved the car. big spec on it and looks great. 'Bought it' ...got home at 3am frown had 4hours sleep now im in work absolutly fecked. anyway heres a picture of were it stand @ work this very moment. i'll take better ones soon.

Yes i agree it does need lowering but ive only just got it so mods will be very slow until another 6months.

Posted By: Wheels Re: quick what do you think? - 25th Feb 2007 7:29pm
What is a MMC? Can anyone est the bhp from these mods for me?.
Posted By: scoop Re: quick what do you think? - 25th Feb 2007 9:09pm
an MMC is a topic u have in "members modified cars" forum.

as for BHP, i just researched SXOC and it seems that 220-250BHP is possible with ur mods,depending on what boost ur running.

Stewy may be able to tell u more
