oh! i didnt realise you has 2 cars!
I'd love to have the space to strip down the engine and replace all the valves springs, seals, clean out all the rubbish and gunk and have it running sweet!
im checking out gude.com.
They have some really sweet head packages that include everything! up to 55whp extra for about $1500, so i want the car to look good if it can go good!
-
that's some gain! Would be amazed if they could get that much out ze heads, which already flow very well. Guess the high lift cams would help, quite a package. I don't have the space really I just take over my parents house room by room :lol: But my lifesaver has been a cheapo tent style gazebo in the back garden where I've been rebuilding the engine :D But yea I wanted a rust free black mx3, so I picked one up in England and boated it home. Had to keep the red one until this ones done, even then I'll struggle to let it go!
-
well if your thinking of letting the red one go sometime around september (ill be 21 so i can get insured on it!!) i would be very interested in it!
did you see the turbo kit on ebay? i think it'd look lovely under ur bonnet!
-
haha the one on US ebay? It's so cheap, I know the turbo would smoke, but the wastegate and BOV would probably hold up, worth it for the pipes! I really love turbos if I found those kits before I got the ze I probably would have turbod the k8 :shock: I think it would look damn good under my bonnet :D But anyway if I do sell you'll be the second in line, after my gf ;)
-
damn loyalty!!!
thats exactly what i was thinkin, get it for the pipes then get a scrapyard turbo somewhere!
how much did it cost for the black one and to get it shipped over?
-
black one was £900, flight over was £30, boat home with car £100 odd from stranraer - belfast. Land sea and air in one day :lol: I guess I could have got one cheaper or over here eventually, but just wanted a rust free one ASAP! Still the black one came with quite new konig 18s, 3" ss backbox, lowered, air filter and a 70k engine- not that I need it!
-
that is an absolute bargain!!!
any chance of posting up some pics?
i wanna see how black it is!
-
haha well had it's downfalls like a damaged back bumper but on the whole its very tidy :) I only have some dirty pics of it, but I'll maybe stick em up later when i get home, depending how bad dirty they look :lol:
-
nice job on those photoshops marco… I've always wondered what the mx-3 would look like in some crazy colors...
-
got any more photoshop ideas. i would like to see the mx in a purple flip colour like the tvr or lotus
