mr2 turbo highly modified but non runner £3000 ono

They do have cut outs in the pistons because its a 'GE' head, but this is only clearance for the valves when its timed up and revving highly!

Just picture this, when the belt broke some of the valves were still open but the crank and pistons were still moving in a non-syncronised movement with the valve train!(unless the clutch was dipped extremely quickly)! The only thing that could happen is for the pistons to ram the valves back up into the head! Usually bending or snapping the valve and if your really unlucky, fookin up a valve guide too!

Hope that makes sence!? :)
 
Yeah I realise the implications of the belt snapping I just thought the valve cutouts were to stop the damage happening thats all.
Theres been a couple of examples were engines have survived undamaged - think its just down to pot luck!
 
yes is is still for sale i am going to put it on ebay very soon so if ne 1 wants to save me the bother
 
If its got the engine modifications you claim how come there isnt a shot of the engine bay so buyers can cofirm it is what you claim? Also why does the car have no plates on it?

Not being funny but it seems a tad fishy to me and I have seen a million ad's selling Mr2's claiming insane engine specs and power levels but they are all still running the stock turbo and may have the odd upgrade (IC/Power FC).

Also the 3SGTE "IS" non interferance which means that even if the belt snapped the valves / pistons wont come into contact.

I would suspect that the car has been over boosted and its dropped a piston, which means more than just a belt change.

Also highly modified it isnt - it really narks me when people bound that statement around! Ooo its got a set of alloys and a gear knob, must be highly modified then! :euge:
 
no shot of engine bay as cam cover is off and some bits and bobs have been taken apart so it doesnt look very pretty at the mo,

all the mods i have listed are true and on the car even a gear knob

already been thro the debate of whether or not the engine is non interferance.
have had the car leak down tested and 2 valves are leaking at 20% dont know if pistons are damaged or not

so where does the line of highly modified start then mate?

I know this car as he is a good friend, the description of the cars modifications are true to our knowledge, if you have any questions regarding the spec of the car or the damage that has occured i suggest you to give JEFF @ RE:WORX in portsmouth as he knows the car and diagnosed the problems with thecar! as for performance the car had enough grunt to leave my 336bhp Gti-r standing :nod: so claimed power does seem realistic! :eek:

please use common sense in this regard ie:only if you have serious interest as u can imagine he is a very busy man fixin them rotary engines :D and he has a buisness to run so he doesnt need the phone ringing off the hook all day long!!

I would appreciate if you have any prejudice against these sorts of matters keep them to yourself unless you have personal interest in these matters :smash:
