Sorry for the late reply!
 
I\'ll have to have a looksy?
I\'ll let you know when i get the chance!

Nay bother my friend I managed to source them elsewhere.

£25 Plus P+P

Very interested in the injectors and the pice quoted. Can you just check to ensure they are purple top and, if possible, are coded;

195500-2020

If so, I\'ll have them.

Cheers

How much for the injectors

Given that the car has been standing for nearly 2 years what other things could have gone wrong in that time? The sad thing is that the guy imported it, drove 300 miles home and then it packed up

Thanks for that Grizzly. This is what the guy wrote on this forum a year ago;

LOOKIKNG FOR THE BEST PRICES FOR A FULL ENGINE REBUILD FOR THE WHOLE LOT INCLUDING ENGINE OUT/IN REPLACING ALL PARTS WITH A MASTER REBUILD KIT AND NEW ROTOR HOUSING.
IT WILL NEED TO HAVE A ENGINE WARRENTY WHEN ITS COMPLETE .

ALSO WILL NEED A CAT REPLACEMENT PIPE AND THE CAR TO BE TUNED AND MAYBE AN NEW ECU DEPENDING ON PRICE.

On top of this, the car will need to be registered, MOT, Tax etc. The more I think about it the less appealing it is becoming. Given that the car has not been driven for nearly 2 years now, I imagine there will be other problems to contend with such as the brakes.  

The car is probably worth about £1500 tops.

Thank you for your quick reply. Sorry, the deal he wants is my car plus £900 for his car in other words £2250 + £900 = £3150

What is the car likely to be worth once all the work is done? If it is type R, are they worth a premium over the standard FD3

Cheers

Hi guys

I must congratulate you all on a very informative board and write in the hope that you can give me some guidance on a planned purchase. I have been offered a px for the following car on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4640438568&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Trawling through the archives here, I note that the car is owned by one of your members and note from his previous posts that the car has the following problems;

1. Needs an engine rebuild
2. New CAT
3. The car is also based in Inverness, so i\'ll need to get my car up there and transport his down to London.

My car is valued at £2250 and he is offering me my car plus £900 to seal the deal. He claims he imported the car for £5000 in 2004. My thoughts are that the car would probably cost this much, including my car, or more to put the car back on the road.

Your thoughts and guidance would be much appreciated.

Cheers
