If these guys have seriously spent that sort of money on their cars they need their heads testing.

Then again, if they still live at home then what else are they going to spend their Halfords wages on?

Why do both of these ebay adverts use huge letters in the description - I have to take my glasses off and stand back about 10 minutes to read them.

I couldnt resist it - i sent him a message...

Hi mate,
been looking at the advert and theres a couple of things id like to clarify first if thats ok???...

From the pics it looks like the engine is a fully forged; ported and polished heads, double valve spring retainers, wiseco pistons, crower conrods, niterided crank, RCM lightweight pulleys and by the looks of it - a garret gt35r turbo too right???? I can definitely see where the moneys gone with all that added my friend!!!!!!
Also could you tell me what ecu its running bud, im guessin with that kinda spec its probaly a syvecs or something anyway??
Oh and does the turbo still run alongside the factory fitted supercharger or is it an aftermarket jobby from Roger Clarke Motorsport???

Sorry for the like million and one questions but it looks just what ive been looking for...
i'll look cool as **** in morrisons carpark at the weekends innit!!LoL

VERY interested in all your answers my friend - cash waiting!!

cheers


LOL, im dying to see what he replies!!!!!ha ha ha

I also emailed to ask if they could send me a list of where the money was spent. Also to ask for some more pictures of the work. They couldnt give me a list or pictures, surprise surprise. But they did say that actually there was £44000 spent.

Some one is going to get a right bargain there, i'd usually bite their hand off but I am a bit broke at the moment and I wouldn't want to be an eBay timewaster.......!
