Clarkie Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) http://www.ebay.co.u...RwAAOSwgY9Xf6eS Just a heads up... This is my old car that was written off in the floods at Christmas time. There's a post up here with pics of full damage What they don't know is that the head gasket is f%$@#d and as such leaks between cylinders 2 and 4 (as far as i can remember) Thought i'd let folks know in case they thought this might just be a plug and play engine Also i was told this vehicle was to be destroyed due to the contamination of the water etc. etc. Might be a nice project for someone but will require a strip down Pete Edit: they've pulled the listing for the time being Edited July 15, 2016 by Clarkie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veeg33 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) If I'm reading the advert correctly, £6,500 just for the engine with supercharger........ The rest of the Nismo stuff (LMGT4 and bodykit) will worth some good money Thanks for the info, surely forum members here will be pleased with your info.

Adrian@TORQEN Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Did they not allow you to keep the car and dismantle it yourself Pete? A lot of goodies on it... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkie Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 I'm guessing they haven't found half the goodies yet! They haven't mentioned the fuel return system. No i was told by the insurers that due to spores from the contaminated water (there was a heap of raw sewage due to location) that it had to be destroyed!

veilside z Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Well their video of it running shows the pedal dance is needed with the engine light on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkSt Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I hope it was an agreed value payout and not just for a basic DE engined 350!! Otherwise I would say that's a scam by someone at the insurance company! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkie Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 All mods covered don't worry. Have to update this, have been in contact with the seller and they've pulled the ad awaiting further discussions about the engine. Good guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
