For what it's worth jay, i'd have yours over this one everyday of the week, a Type R without DCCD is like Dolly Parton without ****.

Tbf if I am right in assuming ET have assembled the long engine then I don't see what problem is!!! And that's coming from someone who had serious failures with a 2.5!!!
I would trust an Enginetuners car 100%!!

Let's not start slinging mud on yet another FS thread even though I smell sour grapes.

Any car is worth what someone is willing to pay and that is fact

Think the last 3 white Type R on here have all been fabulous cars on there on merits but it all comes down to build quality at the end of the day!

Good luck with your sale pal, and thanks for replying

I agree with you on one thing.. it is a very clean motor

However It wouldnt suit you in anyway big man, you enjoy wragging the bollollocks of your car lap after lap after lap going faster and harder everytime. Yes a ET 2.1 or a 2.35 is more suited for that need and does the job much better..

However...


Take a step back, i feel dizzy going clockwise or anticlockwise ALL the time, i use my car for the open road where is delivers 515hp at a effortless 6700 rpm and 530ftlb very low down in the rev range which makes it a PERFECT road car and the ET 2.5 does that job perfectly for me.

Alcatek running auto knock detect and auto knock deletion, so the only choclate here i usually pass it to the passenger for him to choke on when i feel like sum ffs.. lol
