  1. CLIPITY CLOP!
  2. Where exactly in my post did I suggest conning? There is a big difference between 'this engine is new' and 'this engine runs like new'. You told him to write some BS about his engine.I my self am in the market for a new engine, - If I went out and bought what I thought and was assured by the seller was a sound engine and was told it had this that and the other. And then blew up in my face I'd be fudged off! When selling something that important, I'd want to know the honest truth, I'd want to know about the knock and leaks it may or may not be producing, so I can address them before fitting what I was told 'a better engine than new' Other wise I then have to take it out and repair. OP - Tell the truth, stick it up for sale for what you want, and expect to get offers of what people this it's value is. Take it or leave it
  3. Yup do that ^^ con someone
  4. So it's just Dedman
  5. I'll have an engine you can have much cheaper than that in about a month I feel like I already know about that one
  6. The simplest way to look at this is, do you have a budget? If not then go for it If your budget is cutting it close, don't even start. My engine died last month, and I instantly thought, time for a V8. Priced it all up, just wasn't worth it. So much easier and cheaper in the states. If I had money, I'd do it without a second thought, but it's a costly project, where you need to budget for the unexpected as well as the expected.
  7. Try starting with a budget of 15k Engine = 5K - ECU/Chip = around 5k, mounts, harnesses etc, another couple grand, Tuning and Fitting will be costly too. Will need to find a specialist to do an engine conversion.
  8. I want
  9. I would really think about this decision, synco's are prone to be a weakness in the Zeds, Not the end of the world, mine played up in 6th, but still works (worked) fine. Gearbox + Labour is expensive to then find out you bought a duff Gear box.
  10. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww Anniversary missed. Missed it by 3 days - Eleanor did not survive a year, almost! If I had tits would I of got more welcomes ?
  11. Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooh..........he has comma in there
  12. If it helps, I'm in the market for an engine, and the price I've been offered are £1500 for an engine with 40/50k - Which imo is over priced
  13. As much as I appreciate your right up, info is a pain with no before figures. I.e I was running 258 before mods/map which was pretty low, I then made 283 after map. Then other members make 290/300 with same mods. We'll never know what gains you got from headers as you may get gains like me, then with headers = 300. I'm in the same boat though as my info will be irrelevant too as I will have a new engine when I do this. #teamtarmac
  14. yay gay friends I enjoy games, ever since playing the Lord of the rings. Just hack and slash :o talking about games not jags #teamtarmac
  15. was that short or long tube? #teamtarmac
  16. Interesting read. It doesn't help that stevo showed me a video of LTH and it sounded like sex!!! #teamtarmac
  17. exactly why I'm taking advantage of my engine being swapped. Just need to work out if there is any benefits of long tube to having decats #teamtarmac
  18. Info to find out: -any difference from Decats or Long tube Headers. -Different brands for headers -stillen or borla
  19. From what I've read borla aren't the best for gains. States say they've lose performance with them. #teamtarmac
  20. Your thread is fine, it's the one GM linked fear not il give you a review in the new year, as il be getting a new engine in currently researching LT headers vs Stillen headers #teamtarmac
  21. Ahhh not that god awful thread again!!!!
  22. I don't know, the news would probably say it's Ebola, I would say it's your time, others would probably say MTFU
