FD engine and gearbox

rwdwiganer · June 28, 2011, 06:34:47 PM

Hi will be selling the engine and box out of my FD... when I remove them from the car hopefully at the weekend! Unsure what they are worth to be honest! I will be selling the engine complete with both standard turbos. I did try to compression test the engine myself and it did appear to have better compression on the front rotor. I have had it running! Offers for the pair anyone!

Could be interested in this depending on price?
However I don\'t require the gearbox..

I\'m open to offers on the engine, would prefer to sell both but you can make me an offer if you like, cheers

Do you know where the water was coming from? Was it the rad or overflow tank? I remember you brought the one that sprung a coolant leak

rwdwiganer · June 28, 2011, 09:41:05 PM

Thats right! 100% the radiator, I tried to do a DIY repair on it last weekend just so I could have a drive round in it with the rotary in! The leak is too bad to be honest, my repair didn\'t last long! I have filled it up and driven it up the road and back, but really couldn\'t risk driving any further than that with the leak being so bad

Dam was hoping it was a seal failure so I could grab a bargain for a rebuild lol

rwdwiganer · June 28, 2011, 09:51:04 PM

Lol well I don\'t know much about these engines but it does run and drive! Do you have any idea how much I should be looking for both engine and box?

To be honest gearboxes don\'t tend to sell for much as far as I have seen!
Eninge wise around 600ish depending on state of engine which is kinda hard for you to say really!

I\'d be more than happy with something around that figure to be honest! I will also be selling the HKS intercooler and would include that with it if the offer is good enough of course and possibly the airbox (think it is an \'ARC\' airbox but would have to check)

merlin2002 · June 28, 2011, 10:43:12 PM

Do us a pic of the hks set up and I may make a deal with you, although would have to arrange to have it on a pallet to get delivered etc!

No problem I will get some pics up tomorrow... I also have a video of the engine running. There isn\'t any mad rush as I will only be taking the engine out at the weekend (hopefully...) obviously weather conditions and friends help pending!

merlin2002 · June 28, 2011, 11:29:36 PM

rwdwiganer · June 28, 2011, 11:44:24 PM

Ok no problem, I can see it taking me 2 weeks to get it out! I can e-mail you the engine pics and the video of it running if you like?

merlin2002 · June 29, 2011, 06:50:11 AM

Hi, could you forward me engine photos and video also, as I may be interested in engine, you could sell gearbox seperately.
