  11. Hello everybody.. I need a 4efte engine as my bottom end has gone, will have cash in 2 weeks or so, whats everybody got?? Thanks
  12. Yer ok thats what I thought.. any one know of any engines for sale ?
  13. Yes oil was good and at normal level.. pick up pipe didnt seem to be blocked either which is why im confused as to why it happened in the 1st place.. do you guys reckon it would be cheaper to just buy a second hand block or should I just replace all the parts?
  14. But would I then need new rods because 1 of them seems a little worn because the shell was banging against it.. also why do you get oil starvation, is it a blockage?
  15. Hello everybody, I have a quick question but 1st il tell you a little about my car. This is my second glanza v on a 96 (1st 1 was an auto) I brought it cheap due to the body work being a little tatty, anyway I had it for about 3 weeks before the turbo went (racing a golf r32 and beating it I might add lol), (the car was running sweet when I brought it so I couldnt really go back and complain) I was not impressed however I purchased myself a second hand one in good condition with no play and fitted it myself.. it worked ok but would not boost all the way up properly (2 lights out of 3).. any ways this is the least of my problems because meanwhile I had a whirring sound coming from the engine which I thought was the gearbox (which I wasnt bothered about because I had planned to replace it with an lsd box.. turns out however it was not the box but infact the bottom end.. I've taken the sump off and put new big and bearings in because they are scored (the 3rd 1 was completely mashed) but I have the same knocking problem.. so can anyone please suggest what to do now..? Thanks everyone
  16. Any starlets in the bedford area??
