dividee Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 (edited) 4g would be a much better figure i think definitely not 5, but please don't sell you havent even had it for that long enjoy it Edited July 14, 2009 by dividee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeAE71 Posted July 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 (edited) I have my reasons for thinking of selling, but for that kind of money ($4,000) there is no way in hell. What kind of other exciting things could I buy with that sort of money?? It's interesting to see what people think it is worth nonetheless :y: I guess my biggest issue at the moment is I want to spend more and more on it and I really don't have any to spend. If I could move some of the spare parts I have it would free up some cash and I could get that big brake upgrade I need. I really want to take this thing out to a grip practice day to thrash the tits off it but with the current brakes I would see about 3 enthusiastic corners :yes: As someone else stated city driving just isn't going to be enough to truly enjoy this thing. I also need enough money to fix it in case I pop a motor whilst thrashing, as this does double as a daily for me and will be even more important when my wife has the baby and uses my other daily full time I also think that this car is too nice to be thrashing around a track..... Decisions, options, aargh :dance: Edited July 15, 2009 by LukeAE71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trav_555 Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 (edited) Make it a sunday/track car if your worried about breaking it. Get a super cheap little safe stocko daily. Some minor brake upgrades arnt that expensive really. say 100 dollars and put in some xt130 struts and twin calipers? Just don't sell it, it would b crazy to do so Travis Edited July 15, 2009 by trav_555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeAE71 Posted July 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 No real update on the car but something I discovered yesterday... I had kept the 4AC water pump because I was going to modify it in conjunction with a 20V water pump for my cooling system. I was cleaning up yesterday and contemplated throwing it out so I pulled it apart for a look. There were no blades on the shaft at all, just the shaft. All the blades had corroded away and are probably somewhere in the motor!! No wonder the damn thing overheated so badly :wink: This thing had obviously been run on tap water for a loooonnnnnggggg time :yes: I will take some pics of it and post up soon, then it will be hitting the bin. At least I know now what was responsible for starting me on this journey towards 20 valve goodness :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
