alright fellers, most of u probably read the original thread (link below) so u no what the car looks like but if someone could post up more pics maybe?? quik run down 5 speed, red over silver, sunroof, high flowed t04 (no spec), 18s, very low Ok ive been so ***ed around over the last few months by things, but its finally back up for a SERIOUS SALE. for the last 6 months ive been fu|<ing around with it and getting myself in more debt so im finally over it. now the first problem was the some little FUCAS that im gunna kill thought theyd key my car, several times back to bare metal from one end to the other. this will be fixed next week or the following. the car got a blue slip (which was soooo much ***ing around, and found out it was 87 not 88), and the night before i went to get rego i thought id go for a bit of a 'drive' and the thing just stopped going. i still went and got rego, but after weeks off f uking around finally worked out that the chip in the ecu had melted. so i saved for a while then thought *** it, got a credit card an bout a barnd spankan new haltech off a mate. then spent 2 months tryin to get it up to a guy called jonathon at nerang to get fitted an tuned. finally got it booked in, and its now been there for 5 and a half weeks. talked to him today and he said it will be ready to pick up on saturday. it will be tuned on 10 and 15psi, for reliabilty as the bottem end isnt forged. Read the old thread first if ur interested, and if ur not then dont ask to come look cause last time i had sooooo many ****s come look at it and want to drive it. by next week i will have spent another 4 grand on it so im asking for $500 more than i previously got offered which was $15500. will be in trader next week so looking for a quick sale. if ur going to offer stupid amounts dont bother. im not really negotiable at all but i can only ask what ppl will pay. cheers, lee http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showt...83&page=1&pp=30 (http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=16483&page=1&pp=30)
