It has a blown engine which has been removed and stripped down. I no longer have the time, spare cash or room to rebuild this car. Was running 272.6rwkw on 14psi before it died. The Car does come with the complete stripped engine. I've had the block bores cleaned up, 20' was all that was needed to remove the damage (needs final honing to suit whatever pistons go in). It was original bores before this. 1 Turbo is blown. The body is straight and interior is clean. The car has always been garaged since I've owned it and is currently in Storage in Bundaberg QLD, with the Engine at my place in Gladstone QLD. Car is not registered. Plates will go with car. Tread is 90% on all 4 corners.

what went wrong with the old motor?

[puke22]

I'm no mechanic but I believe a foreign body went through the block. The bores where fairly haggard and the tops of the pistons had a fair amount of pinging damage (as shown in the pics). The exhaust wheel on the rear turbo was also non existent (as shown in the pics, maybe a big enough brave enough piece of piston took it on?), although the front turbo wheel spins freely and feels to have no resistance or shaft play. The valves seem to have escaped damage and still seat nicely, as the crank and cam shafts also only seem to have normal wear. This is an uneducated theory but I believe the engine was just run too hard with too much boost on standard pistons for too long before I bought it and the rear turbo exhaust wheel finally gave up. I was able to start the car after it died (while driving sedately believe it or not) but it just sounded horrible so I killed it and eventually pulled it apart. It also had no weird sounds or knocks before it died. I believe it was just run too hard on standard pistons because it came with dyno sheets showing over 330rwkw when I bought it and I did not have it tuned and only had it run 272rwkw on 14psi when I had it tested personally. So I'm assuming it was detuned and sold off to me... Please note this is my own opinion and I have very little engine knowledge and this theory should not be taken as fact. I'd appreciate no flaming of my own opinion if this sounds completely retarded , I'm just being as honest as I can.

I have cleaned the crank and cam shafts up a little bit to shown wear and confirm there is no rust as the engine has been apart for over 1year now (I've left everything covered in oil and oiled where needed and wrapped in rags as I originally intended to have this rebuilt myself).

I did take this car to one test n tune drag meet in its short running life with me, it can be viewed running on this vid at 48sec and 1min25sec (I lost the drag at 1min 25sec as I beat my estimated time ran 12.2 sec best that night).

Should also add the odometer reads 131000*kms, and the car has no rust that I'm aware of. I will most probably move the engine into storage with the car next weekend (03.09.11) so everything is together in Bundaberg. Will try to get some current photos and upload them.

Sweet jesus, if this is still available in a couple months i'll snap it up

Rebuild will set new owner back about 8k yeah? (Sorry not overly mechanically inclined)

If it goes before then, good luck to the new owner!!

Might be more than 8k if you have to buy new turbos

[adam Foster]

8k would get a strong motor forgies etc

Some shops no where to hit ya

standard rebuild should be under 5

or put a short block from japan second hand and new turbos under 5

[kanny]

$5000 money in the bank now

Do you want to sell the engine on its own?

[puke22]

Do you want to sell the engine on its own?

I may consider selling the complete engine on its own and the car seperatly if I can the right offers on each. There has been a couple of people interested in only the car not including the engine.

I would much prefer to sell the complete car however, and for the people who have been and plan to offer 5-6k, please let me save your and my time with no. I will keep the car in storage for a rebuild at a later date if I cant get alot closer to 10k than 5-6k.

[GTR81]

is the engine still in Gladstone or have you taken it to Bundy?

[tappy]

If someone buys the engine, I will buy the rest of the car
