I agree with the other two posters.

The FSH will prove whether it has had the forging (if it is FSH).
However, compare the price with an RB320 - there's only about £2-3k in it, which is ridiculous considering the difference between them.

i bought my stealth hawk from that excact same company 3 yrs ago and only paid £13k at the time it even had full leather interior, all iam seeing from that advert some decent mods but the standard engione wont handle them and its a time bomb.
Tbh at the same cash your looking at a jdm hawk which is a much better car and i own a type uk!
Also from experience they dont move much on price either

Thanks for confirming my thoughts, at that power it should be forged and i wont be taking a chance on it.

They have a silver hawk in stock im going out in instead.

Cracking looking car, but as above, along with that parts list i'd want to be seeing some very tasty engine internals, along with some 14mm head studs and a **** off head gasket, otherwise as soon as it get's driven properly it's going to p!ss water out the head and rings through the exhaust.

The price would be ok if it had all of the above and a decent warranty.

My money is that this will be a non-forged engine running the T at lower boost to preserve the pistons and HG, Power is too low for a forged unit with that turbo and supporting mods.

It's a nice car, but It's too much for a non-forged engine. It would be cheap if it did have decent internals tough, so I'd check!
