Anyone have/know where i can get a decent C20XE, doesnt matter if it needs work, althought must be earlier concast head!

Think you'll struggle finding one with a concast mate:(

or youll pay £300+ matey. i sold one in bits with a dead headgasket for £200 without a box and manifold...

[sulphur]

Hmm...did you read that properly sloth?:wtf:
You completely bypassed my mockery. lol

bwahahahhaha sorry matey! ill take 3 concasts and a genuine c20let gsi in silk voilet please... (must have been built in britain, and have come down the lines with the c20let in!)

[sulphur]

lmao. I'll have a factory 2.0 mustard yellow SR ;)

Thanks guys, your being most helpful! :)

was that sarcasm? seriously, you'll pay £350 + now, and theones under that are usually dogs. have you thought about the x20xev or the 20seh? both give good power, and excellent torque, more than an xe infact. btw, sorry for the posts above, we needed a giggle at 3am this morning!

Well i m open to suggestions really! I bought a cheap nova which needs some work. I ve always had a soft spot for the little buggers. I had a ep3 Civic Type R before but had to sell it, would like a 16V nova as it d be just as much of a hoot i reckon!

i'd have a browse through the projects section, there have been a few ecotec nova's and alot of 8v ones. search for steve's build thread. yeah, the xe is good, but most now need a £200 rebuild, aswell as buying the engine. theres gonna be some serious 2.0 8v turbo powered cars this year, as its a cheap easy to build option. i'd start with a std 2.0 8v, and go from there.

You wouldnt happen to know anywhere were i can get front wings and rear arches for a mk2, i came across anycarpart.com who have quite a few bits and pieces, but i m guessing maybe you would know somewhere better or have sources where i can get good quality parts, any help is much appreciated!
