[Mk2] [Turbo] another how much is it worth question??

Post by The Morris »

my knock sensor has gone, i think im going to replace it and sell up and buy something sensible. Im half way through my project. Whats it worth

Spec
Rev 2
New block, forged pistons, uprated head gasket -£3000
Blitz bag turbo rebuilt by TT, 327 bhp fly @18 psi -£1100
Unichip and boost module £150 + £300 mapping
Greddy intercooler -£500
water injection -£250
Rev 3 inlet cam -£50
Departure 2 exhaust, new flexi -£450
Fox rs5's 17" unmarked with toyos -£900
uprated leads -£90
Lowered and stiffened (bilsteins at front not sure rear)
clear lights -£50
Momo steering wheel
All work carried aout by Andi at AM tuning in total of over £6k spent

This is a great car for someone wanting power as the engine is all ready done. I was going to add a bored out fuel rail, walbro pump, TT hybrid and run it at 380bhp which would be plenty for me.

There are a couple of bad points. I caught the edge of the rear bumper on the garage, touched up not too bad. There is a little surface rust on the driver side sill, its only cosmetic but i would give the buyer a free set of toms skirts to cover this up. Also the Blitz turbo has a struggle dispelling air at 18psi and has a little whistle between 4 and 5 k revs then goes away. Other wise its in great condition and has been maticulously maintained.

Seeing the engine rebuild costs £3k and the wheels and exhaust alone cost £1300 recently, surely its worth £4k

If it had been a t-bar then i would be giving you that £4k right about now :-(

I think its prob worth that, what with most of the engine work having already been done. Good luck with the sale!

It'll be a pretty rough S2000 for £8k :lol:

I just sold mine and am looking at cheaper RWD fun i.e. MR2 Turbo :D

Don't even think about getting a S-type R. These cars are horrible! I've driving one few weeks ago. Power enough (400hp) but it's just a ford! Comes no where near the driving pleasure of a mr2!!

good luck ;)
