If it is 2800 then I rekon that it needs a rebuild and lots of replacement parts. I\'m sure the Mazda PP housings are at least £1,000 each brand new

Indeed, would be awesome if anyone in Scotland could verify. Just contact him through the site, I\'m sure it\'s Aberdeen uk. He did have another ad up for a standard 20b block but he told me it was sold....baffled, very curious

He replied my emails as Kristof. Given Craigslist and gumtree can be scam central, but I remember a few years back I found a hks twin turbo kit for a 350z for 1.4k at the time they retailed 5-6k. So took some muscle down with me just in case the classic mug n run happened lol, but it didn\'t. Turned out the guy was so desperate and in debt up to his eye balls he just had to get cash fast!! Happy days. So if anyone does want to verify this sale just be cautious and don\'t go alone. You can email the add by using the reply button on the web page
