As a follow on to my previous thread regarding being ripped off and being sold a bugeye sti with a duff motor, i am testing the water to see if it is worth getting mine reconditioned, or a straight replacement put in..

Must be an excellent runner (Dont need another dog thanks), pref. sub 50k milage and 2002 Sti so will go straight in, no pi$$in about.

Let me know what you have got and prices please...
Long or short motor - all concidered.

I am over the garage on sat morning to have a chat about which way to go, so would be good to have my options by then.

Cash waiting for right deal.

I don't blame you! I only saw them advertising here, it may be worth asking the question on here again.
