[Mk2] [NA] i am confused and angry!

[paul_4xxxx]

just got a value for my car

http://www.whatcar.com/valuation-summar ... 7&ML=98000

it says thats the power is only 168bhp... i thought it was more towards the 190bhp mark... i.e. 187bhp for a rev3+?? quite happy with the price aswell apart from the fact its only 3.5k for private... trade is 4.5 whch is nice

how much would you say it would be worth? its had a full re-spray in orrigional colour, custom exhaust, engine polished and interior leather is like brand new its done 98k tho

at the end of the day mate prices are slowly dropping, plus a car is only worth what someone else will pay for it.

[jimGTS]

3-3.5k i would hav thought...
if youve only a rev3 (rev4 in that link), then your looking at more like 2-3k.....
no idea where you thought it was nearer 190flywheel....
rev1/2 are 158, rev3-4 is 173, rev5 is 168....(maybe rev4 is also 168)....

[paul_4xxxx]

i got no idea where i got 187bhp from either,,, i am sure i read it somewhere tho

its a 1997 p reg so its rev4

[paul_4xxxx]

[CosmosblueMR2]

why??? lol

always fancied finding out who was now driving my written off P reg Tbar Mk2 (Uk spec)

[paul_4xxxx]

lol.... isnt mine, i assure you, i have had it nearly 3yrs now and its a project car which is why its had a re-spray and is soon to be recieving a v6

I wrote it off 6 years ago - I'm still searching - but i know the guy is on the OC.. if he appears here he'll have a shock

[paul_4xxxx]

doesnt he know it was a write off or something?? what colour is it???

[CosmosblueMR2]

that i don't know - hence why I've never actively sought him out.

as for colour... *cough* Goodward Green

[paul_4xxxx]

what are you driving now then? gotta be a rev4 + turbo...

im unsure what to do with mine next, buy a rev3 turbo rear clip and do a conversion or do a 3ltr v6 conversion and strap a turbo onto that later on..

it "was" a rev5 cosmosblue (purple) turbo... (uk car converted, pushing 300 BHP) - now sold due to a bad back injury...

now have an invalid carriage - also know as an audi A4 V6 sport ... it's "comfy"

V6 would have a Supercharger strapped to it .. not a turbo. speak to Paul Woods (PW motorsport over on affiliates )

[paul_4xxxx]

whoozy on twobrutal has just had his v6 turbod by paul from woodsport... i am just waiting to see what sort of power it makes b4 a make the decision, i would prefere the turbo because the trd supercharger only boosts to about 5 - 7 psi and a turbo is more controlable

[CosmosblueMR2]

hmm interesting - i did not know that

[paul_4xxxx]

go take a look on www.twobrutal.com on woodsport projets, its supposed to be getting dynod this week

[Tiamat]

hmm interesting - i did not know that

V6 has a twin turbo from memory - one for each bank.

[paul_4xxxx]

no, the 3vz-fe v6 from the camry is a non-turbo with 170bhp and a shed load of torque, there are a few in the US with turbo conversions but whoozy has the first in the uk

paul woods has also just completed the worlds 1st mk3 v6 aswell...

take a look at this.... http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=A_PkswoXMx0
