Shocked to see this big man

GLWTS Steve

 

Some really good parts on that car Steve, must be a very good reason to let it go

 

Would you consider breaking it? I would be interested in the front brakes, turbo and hart inlet?
Cheers

 

I would like to sell the car whole

Steve

 

What block and speck bore etc

 

Blimey Steve, didn't think you'd sell it on!

 

It's a 205 block on .5 oversize, 7.8.1 comp, NO valve cutouts

Steve

 

Fookin lovely that! Mint. Glwts matey.

 

With you Pete, glwts big man

 

never thought I'd see this,

 

Bargain really considering the parts on it.

 

Shocker mate, GLWTS

Steve

 

I'd also be interested in a few bits if you break mate,namely fuel pump,braided hoses wasted spark etc.

Just letting you know if it works out better for you.

I still think someone will have a punt on this iconic car.

 

shame but at least you will still have a cossie to spend the pennies on glwts

 

Wow, surprise for sale thread.
Good buy for someone
GLWTS mate

 

What bar boost to make that power?

 

Peaked @ 2.23bar and was still holding over 2bar @ 7400rpm when the run was stopped.

Steve

 

shocked to see this mate, i thought it would be broken first and parts transplanted onto the 3 door.
cars looks mint well worth asking price imo, glwts steve

 

So what's actually wrong with the bottom end ?

 

Spun a shell or 2 or 4.

I have not taken it apart but it still ticked over.

Steve

 

if you do decide to break mate id takes secs and air injectors

 

This car has been well covered in mags for loving dyno's as it always made the numbers so surprised you did not add a picture, been worked on by in my opinion the number 1 all time tuner for YBs ( Turbosystems ), for a proven 500hp car its got to be worth serious thought, good luck steve

 

TBH Steve i have no pics of my own with the car on a dyno

Thanks for all the nice comments lads

Steve

 

Cracking VFM

If I wasn't committed to buying and picking up my new toy tomorrow I'd have had this without hesitation (and finally put some decent rims on it ; )

GLWTS Steve,

Ben

 

Thanks Ben

What wheels are to your taste then ?

Steve

 

bargain.....

 

Not a lot of money for the car glwts

 

Fucking bargin!

 

Just added a couple more things to the spec list lol

Oil cooler and Alcon 6 paddle clutch.

Im sure i will remember even more things.

Steve

 

Whatever Soper and Rouse had on their XR4ti's - centre locks? Can't remember if they were the same as the 500's or not... but they did look cool.

Failing that, anything with a bit of dish on for me Steve, just think it would look a lot better with dish / a different offset, but that's just me, for someone else that would be the highest offense against good taste!

Ben

 

Granted there's a lot of top parts on this car but at the end of the day it's a xr4i and will never be worth that. The price that is being asked for this is what I would expect to pay for a proper Cossie. If it was me I would transfer all those parts onto the 3dr and sort that or just brake it and make the money that way

 

If it does end up being broken let me know the shell price as my shell need more work tan it would cost ! HOPEFULLY speak on sat if at ace cafe

 

if you can find me a proper cosy with a decent engine spec for 7.5k ill buy it,

 

No plans on breaking the car.

Im working on Saturday.

Steve

 

cant believe you're selling mate - good luck.

Glad you're keeping the moonstone tho

 

I might sell that as well when its finished

I have my eye on a car

Steve

 

Not if i GAZUMP you

 

How much would it cost to sort the bottom end?

 

No idea.

The engine is still complete

Stev
