erm, what is stage 5?

best of putting an advert in the for sale section and see what offers interest you get?

what exactly does stage 5 mean?  I assume you are wanting to sell this as a full conversion and it's not just a bare engine and a charger?

just seen that you are only 18 in the 'how old are you section' thats pretty young to have a G with a high spec. You are best putting up pics/full spec up in the for sale section as DK has mentioned. I dont understand though, surely if you have had all of that work done why dont you get another shell and swap it all over?

With all due respect to l12vts, I don't think he really knows or understands exactly what has been done to the engine.
It seems to me it is most likely that he has bought the car already "modified" and only has sketchy details from the previous owner?
