pozman Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 hey peoples i recently bought my self an "awesome" ke55 hard top, but me in all my wisdom checked the car with vic roads but not the 3t that is in it :P . turns out that its a little hotter than one should hope for, ie stolen. :D any way as the police don't know wether they'll let me kepp it or not, i might start thinking new engine, but not sure to go with 3t again or something a little more potent. any suggestions that aren't to extravigant would help, thanks Quote
Trent-KE30 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 What is it just a 3T? Not a 3tgte or anything? Drop a 2T-G in it, the engine mounts should be the same? Quote
SoulSearcher Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 Can't you go back to the seller??? Quote
Dan Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 Still won't have anything to fall back on though, the cops will take the engine, the cops will take the last owner. This poor bloke will end up with f@$k all; sorry to hear it. Anyway, you'll end up with a better car. Dan. Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted February 13, 2006 Report Posted February 13, 2006 I would be paying a visit to the old owner....perhaps in the middle of the night Quote
pozman Posted February 14, 2006 Author Report Posted February 14, 2006 (edited) yeah i spoke to the previous owner and he "says" he bought a t18 that was writen off about 8 years ago, if hes telling the truth that car was either full on stolen or recovered and the paper work went to the out house. its all up to the po po atm. will a 4a ge/gze bolt on to a silica 5 speed and will that take much mod to engine mounts, cause they go fairly hard what is the 3tgte out of and are they expensive Edited February 14, 2006 by pozman Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 On the bright side, at least the whole car isn't hot, then you would end up with nothing. Quote
pozman Posted February 14, 2006 Author Report Posted February 14, 2006 this is true, the sad thing is that i bought the car foe the mods to it, the engine was a big selling point, but hey, shit happens Quote
Dan Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 Sorry to hear it man. Keep us updated. Quote
figjam Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 I'm sorry for being a newb and all but how the hell can u steal an engine Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 You steal a car, and remove the engine, and dump the car. Or so I am told :P Quote
Dan Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 Not that you would, well, know about the ins and outs of that sort of thing :P jks. Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 I can honestly say, I have never, and will never steal a car. I would prefer to work for my stuff Quote
Dan Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 Thats good to hear buddy; I'm on the exact frame of mind. Have to be a real c**t to steal someone elses pride and joy. Just poking shit at you and all buddy :P Dan. Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted February 14, 2006 Report Posted February 14, 2006 What you said really hurt my feelings Dan, I'm not sure we can continue to be friends :P Quote
