Title: sold please delete!
Post by: sinister polo on May 27, 2010, 09:14:25 pm: hi all,

basically i have owned the car for the last 3 years, it started of as a 1.3 cl.

due to being made redundent i no longer have the money to finish this project,
its shame as i had big plans for it!
the car is nearly completed its just needs that final effort to get it to top spec.

i will be completely honest and say that it needs a fair bit of bodywork doing,
there is rust in the bottom corner of the windscreen on the passenger side,
also behind the rear bumper there is rust down the seam above the tow eye,
and also on the drivers side rear arch there is an old scuff mark which has been touched up by a previouse owner,
it has however recentley had a new battery tray welded in so thats fine.

the supercharger allthough serviced 150 miles ago needs a new scroll and shaft, due to damage where where the oil seal sits.

it has done 101,000 on the clocks but the engine has only done approx 85,000.

i have spent thousands on it in the last 6 months, here is the spec:
tornado red
standard 1272cc py engine
jabba stage 4 charger (needs repairing)
full powerflow custom exhaust and stainless 4 branch (2 months old)
65mm pulley
250cc injectors (done 150 miles since refurb)
sns chip to run 65mm pulley and 250cc injectors
standard atv gearbox
ppp stage 2 subframe
g-ladersite anti roll bar blocks
g-ladersite polythene bushes all round
new suspension arms
custom aliminum boost pipes made by g-werks
forge front mount mount intercooler
new knock censor
new co pot
new coil
new spark plugs
new oil and filter
new gearbox oil
g40 front brakes with black diamond grooved and drill disks, black diamond pads
goodridge brake hoses all round
new front wheel bearings
g40 seats (rears not fitted atm)
g40 steering wheel
g40 clocks
spax suspension 40mm drop
price wise id like to see £1600 ono

for some reason it wont let me upload pictures on here, i can email people some if they interested.

Post by: sinister polo on May 27, 2010, 10:24:46 pm: well it needs the bodywork doing and the supercharger needs repairing/replacing,
the car runs but i wouldnt advise driving it away with the charger leaking oil,
it would need to be trailored if your planing on taking it any real distance!

il send you some pics
