hey peoples

 

i recently bought my self an "awesome" ke55 hard top, but me in all my wisdom checked the car with vic roads but not the 3t that is in it :P . turns out that its a little hotter than one should hope for, ie stolen. :D

 

any way as the police don't know wether they'll let me kepp it or not, i might start thinking new engine, but not sure to go with 3t again or something a little more potent.

 

any suggestions that aren't to extravigant would help, thanks

What is it just a 3T? Not a 3tgte or anything?

 

Drop a 2T-G in it, the engine mounts should be the same?

Can't you go back to the seller???

Still won't have anything to fall back on though, the cops will take the engine, the cops will take the last owner. This poor bloke will end up with f@$k all; sorry to hear it.

 

Anyway, you'll end up with a better car.

I would be paying a visit to the old owner....perhaps in the middle of the night

yeah i spoke to the previous owner and he "says" he bought a t18 that was writen off about 8 years ago, if hes telling the truth that car was either full on stolen or recovered and the paper work went to the out house. its all up to the po po atm.

 

will a 4a ge/gze bolt on to a silica 5 speed and will that take much mod to engine mounts, cause they go fairly hard

 

what is the 3tgte out of and are they expensive

On the bright side, at least the whole car isn't hot, then you would end up with nothing.

this is true, the sad thing is that i bought the car foe the mods to it, the engine was a big selling point, but hey, shit happens

Sorry to hear it man. Keep us updated.

I'm sorry for being a newb and all but how the hell can u steal an engine

You steal a car, and remove the engine, and dump the car. Or so I am told :P

Not that you would, well, know about the ins and outs of that sort of thing :P jks.

I can honestly say, I have never, and will never steal a car. I would prefer to work for my stuff

Thats good to hear buddy; I'm on the exact frame of mind. Have to be a real c**t to steal someone elses pride and joy.

Just poking shit at you and all buddy :P

What you said really hurt my feelings Dan, I'm not sure we can continue to be friends :P
