hello / potential owner / whats its worth post!

hello guys and gals...

i have had mr`2s gave up on them, tried celica`s gave up on them!, now have a scooby (giving up on it slowly!)...been offered a modded 20v T. BUT i would like some kind advice from you guys/gals, the car is on ebay and has had a few mods.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?V...y0%3D%26fvi%3D1

Thats the link to the auction....

does anybody know the car? would the mods create any problems?

any help apreciated...

had a good look around your forums nd there seems to be a lot of good stories from ppl who own these cars...

so maybe this is my next toy??

what do you think

Thanks

Darren

Out of curiosity what scooby do you have?
You would need to check the receipts for the ECU re-map carefully etc. What chip does it have?
Mods look ok but the FMIC would benefit from more cooling from a different bumper and an uprated filter.
It's hard to tell without seeing the car really.
Maybe someone off here could go look at it for you.

that would be a REAL help...

i have a modded wrx running 300bhp....

but the car has cost me a fortune since owning it (the most any car i have had in the timescale i have owned it) but its now in a condition i am happy to sell it in, replacment engine,and some exterior mods, its very clean and tidy for a 93 wrx.

this is from the owner.....

All the mods were done by the last owner all done this year, the turbo is a
turbo techins hybrid s161 (i think thats the model i can check later when i
get home and look at the paper work) the tubo cost almost £700 so its
nothing mental or huge, (full boost by 3200rpm)
standard ecu but with a chip (squarder tuning) soz about the spelling. they
are fiat and alfa only tuning company, runs very sweet no cold or hot
starting problems at all and no warning lights since ive had it.

yeah i agree the front mount need MUCH more free air flowing into it... are there many bumbers/kits out for these?

Thanks for your reply...

Darren

There are quite a few bumpers available.
It may be worth putting a post up on this thread:

Welcome to a fantastic forum Darren. I'd listen carefully to what the guys and gals recommend and read, read, read! The very best advice is to get someone from the forum to go and look the car over. It may be that this isn't the ideal car but that wouldn't worry me too much, there are good ones around so it's well worth waiting for the best you can afford (like most cars, so sorry if this sounds like trying to teach granny how to suck eggs!).
Read the buying guides and ask as many questions on here as you reckon you can get away with

Once again, welcome to the forum, I reckon you're going to enjoy your time here!
