Markoos Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Bit of an update here guys, the other day i was contemplating selling my car due to having so many problems with an engine that i bought from somebody on the site, bsically he had rebuilt it himself when he told me that it hadnt been rebuilt and it was just low millage.So........ i went out and bought a new engine from an auto, 29,000 miles on the clock and what a stunner she is! if you could see it in person you would be very impressed, the turbo looks brand new! on saturday at 10pm we started doing the engine swap, clutch change and cambelt change we got done at 10am. so tirFew pics coming for your viewing pleasure:new enginewording still clear on the standard mani!engine getting ready to come out dropped into the pitt:lukEP and chris (nastyrash) molesting my new enginenew engine being put in:Engine is now fantastic and the turbo is amazing! just feels ten times better than my old engine and turbo, probably seeing as its a low mileage unabused auto now converted to a manual Hope you like Markoos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
