yeah but sounds like pre ignition. only does one rattle when you snap the throttle open quick. 3 of us mechanics so far have listened to it and it doesnt sound like a bottom end knock. more of a single rattle .

i couldnt not buy it for Ł4k itd break for far more than that. a 530 bhp r32 has gotta be Ł10k. and ive found a whole low miles engine with warranty for Ł2600. its a very good project me thinks
