that was the spec we beleaved it to have and that he paid £1600 for which is fair money.
we took it to get set up and on 0.9 bar it made 160bhp and 175lbft which wernt bad but abit low imo. anywho we got it home and the fun began. after a day of having it the clutch started slipping like fook and a couple of oil leaks appeared. so a phone call to the bloke we bought it off and he agreed to send him a new clutch.
all good we thought so we proceeded to drop the engine and box as this would be the easiest way to do it imo, this is where the fun began. on removing it we found this list of faults
3 bolts missing from the gearbox to the engine. - rubbish
Only one bolt holding the equal length driveshaft set up and that was loose - never took the box out so rubbish
All the wiring just twisted together and taped - told you the wiring needed sorting
Cross member just cut and bashed, not "done properly" as we were told - all the member needed and still strong
Standard brakes - got the pictures of fitting the xr2 brakes so rubbish
No new shocks on the back - only said it had new fronts and rears were near new wen i got car
Completely standard head, cam and inlet - complete rubbish, was a stage3 head, ports were huge and smooth
Standard turbo - rubbish, turbo technics stage 1 turbo(turbo technics cant confirm that by a part number, turbo has to be dismatled, already asked em)
Bodged up not custom exhaust - told you it was a FRST sytem modded to fit therefore custom
Standard bottom end - if .5 oversize forged pistons and balanced crank and rods is standard then ok
Standard clutch - valeo stage 1 organic
Standard 1.3 gearbox - told you that when you picked it up and you said fine
Radiator and fan not fixed in at all - fan was bolted into the front panel rad pipes kept rad in place
im sure there was more but i cant remember. anywho so a call back to who we bought it off and a day of fooking about but he eventually got £500 back :d
so basically we have now stripped it and started again properly so new post for new chaptor
