I never seem to get to drive the car anymore. New job with long hours communiting by train everyday.
I used to love my old job, where I could drive to work. Getting to drive the sup to work everyday would make you love any job.
I'm not in a rush to sell but I am getting married later in the year so the money would come in handy.
After having the car for almost a year I deciced to go BPU and fitted a double decat. I noticed that the car was leaking oil on the drive way. So I poped into JPS and they diagnosed the problem to be a Crank Seal. The replaced it and I was on my merry way.
However after only a short time I noticed oil on the driveway once again. So I headed straight back to JPS. Same problem, crank seal leaking. Leon believed the seal may have been damaged when being put in, so he replaced it for free.
But alas the problem occured again. So back to JPS again. This time he investigated further. It was found that the wrong grade of oil had been put in the car by the previous owner. It had disintegrated into a gritty substance throughout the engine. Thus causing the blown crank seals.
I asked Leon what my options were. He explained that a engine rebuild would be required, or an engine transplant. He has an engine instock with large turbos, pulleys and cams. So the rest is history.
The turbo's were once in Leon Green's drag car. He ran them for one season. I had intended putting larger injectors and an uprated ECU on the car but I never got round to doing it. But even at 1.1 bar the car is a flier.......
The pulleys and cams were on the engine when I bought from Leon. I'm not sure what version they are but I can chat Leon and find out.
Feel free to give me a call on 07833 645168 to discuss in further.
