hi there pal, its got a fse power boost valve on it its covered 120thousand, iv had it since 113, just over a year ago, it does need camshaft sensor which i have reciept to show from the electrition, but since some idiot wanted to shunt my rear end at 5 in the morning while it was parked out side, i didnt want to throw any more money at her, it will be going with gear box, ecu and all the wiring, an im wanting 350 but would take 300, plus if you require brake's and everything to transfer over im willing to throw these in at the 350price, thanks

each to there own, the redtop is easilly tunable and you get a turbo then you have the problems of the turbo, but it what the person prefers, i think power to weight ratio is still great!!!

:lol: ah, there's always one. ok...well the 50 post limit is there to encourage people to get involved in the board itself, rather than just coming on here and using it to sell stuff.

and secondly...i just hate the term redtop. Its a poo plastic cover and is usually re-sprayed anyways. A proper 'redtop' would be the likes of the Nissan C18DET, SR20DE and DET, and the ford CVH's...which all have red rocker covers.

I just wish people would use the engine code...sounds better too, like you know what ur talkin about.

I just hate it as i've had that many people ask me if mine is a 'redtop'...the word just grates on me now.

But...like you say, just me bein a dick!... :wave:
