[dai cupra]

hi guys my car is due for an engine rebuild or transplant with same engine has to be low milage but really looking for rebuild so can anyone point me in right direction who to use . any contacts and prices will be great many thanks guys

 

[Mat]

Sorry, but for some reason i wanted to lol. What's wrong with your engine?

 

[ibizacupra]

rebuild for what reasons? higher spec, rods etc or just fix something which is broken?

 

[dai cupra]

basically i just want lyk a new engine nothing broken i got money just want prices

 

[RichN]

Eh? You 'just want' a new engine? ;-)
try www.reconditioned-engines.co.uk

.. can lend you mind if you want, then you'll have a reason to spank the cash, it's got valve stem oil seal issues..

 

[dai cupra]

how do u no when there gone mate

ive been looking in magazine and its got a add in there for recon engines so i might take that up dont no yet

 

[RichN]

EH!??! WHY!?!?

I've done 150,000 miles and mine runs like a dream.. it's just a bit smokey (minor) - I can't imagine you've done anything like that mileage, so why would you possibly want a rebuild? It's not a highly stressed Rover K-Series or an old ford engine....

 

[dai cupra]

because i dont want to expect problems in long run . i got money and id rather spend a bit on engine . geting new turbo and map so think im guna see bill to map it as ive been told this guy is the dogs

 

[dai cupra]

pmd you bill

 

[dai cupra]

oh and bit off oil leak on side of engine lokks like red fluid so im thinking its probs powersteering pump or sumthing

 

[cupramillo]

Sounds like a flase economy mate. If an engine is serviced at regular intervals then there is not need to rebuild it, just because you dont wanty something to go wrong. Keep your money and put it torwards a decent service and mods!

 

[dai cupra]

hey mate the car has just beenn serviced the car has full service history and an oil leak has just come about now so just wanting a rebuild or buy a newish engine

thanks for ur advice cupramillo

If you have 'that' much cash why dont you get it rebuilt to a higher spec piston rods etc.. a whack a decent turbo setup on it.

Seems silly to me to have it either rebuilt with std internals or swap the engine if yours runs perfectly fine.

 

[dai cupra]

how much for rebuild mate thats what i been trying to get at lol wots a decent price b3nny

 

[cupramillo]

Couldnt agree more, you could get yourself a ko3hybrid for the price of an engine rebuild and have 280bhp or there abouts. I know what i'd spend my money on

 

[__B3NNY__]

I think you may be looking at around 2k for an uprated engine rebuild, Bills the man for that

 

[dai cupra]

what prices are they matey hybid ko3s

 

[__B3NNY__]

I think Bill does the drive in drive out hybrid k03s for approx 2.3k.

Nobodys asked the obvious yet, how many miles has yours coverd?

 

[dai cupra]

what does 2k get me in parts wise mate

 

[dai cupra]

91000 mate i no its not that much but im planning on keeping it now and dont want any probs

do u get a map for that price off bill
