Car has been sold, please delete the thread

So, I bought this about 6 months ago from these forums intending to fix up and use as a daily. Six months have passed and I havn't done much. THE BAD Might as well start here. Body looks okay in photos but is a bit rough, certainly not a looker, and if you want something that looks sharp it probably...

Hey mate, let me know if you are interested in selling the motor alone? If so approx kms? Good comp? Price?

I don't believe any EA82T turbo would be a twin scroll, for a start the EA82 heads dont allow for splitting the exhaust pulses because each head dumps both cylinders out of one port. I have also had both a VF2 and a VF4 which are both single scroll. Unless there is a different version of the engine ...

oh thank god for that!

JB HIFI did mine for $44

hrmmm i shall see how i go

I bought this kit and am going to install soon, just wondering how you guys went about securing the head unit in place properly?

I dont think EA motors use direct valve actuation, in fact most single cam heads don't.

I was gonna say ive seen plenty of older cars with electric mirrors, guess its just the adjust the glass model though, no worry! Thanks everyone for your input it's been very informative, ill throw up some more piccies after the weekend as i will be installing a bit of stereo gear this weekend and g...

That sux, random car vandalism, i don't understand it but it makes me so angry, I had my soarer badged about 6 months ago. Although they weren't content just trying to take them off carfully but instead firuged it was easier to take off the surrounding paint with a screwdriver!

nice looking car! i dig the wheels to, suit it very well

well by the sounds of it i'm onto a good thing here! thanks for all your input guys. Actually one thing thats been bugging me about the car that perhaps someone here can answer. I am assuming my car has electric mirrors as there is no manual adjuster that I can find, however there is also no control...

having now been sparked to do a little reading through the stack of assorted paperwork that came with the car the engine number actually changed in May so I guess that confirms that. The RTA are happy with it and so am I so hoorah. Reading through recipts it also seems the flywheel has been lightene...

I guess i'll run with conversion as the VIN contains CR0BE. But hey is neither here nor there to me, I'd like to see an EJ in there anyways. If it is a conversion they must have gone to incredible effort, dash cluster has turbo light n all and although it doesn't have that rather horrid (just my opi...

that is wicked! would sure surprise more than a few people!

gees that is a nice paintjob! ill be interested to see how it looks when it's all back together!

also discs on the rear, no power steering (not that it bothers me), did have air con, was removed at the same time as all the sound deadening was removed from the car. The previous owner wanted to run it in hill climbs but didn't have the money to keep funding two project cars, it just so happened I...

Gday all, thanks for the kind words, is an 87 model, i am told its a factory RX, is manual, is AWD. Engine has been out before and is so clean because it was rebuilt about a year ago (have all the recipts for parts and work with the car). The owner before me pulled off all the stickers hinting at wh...

G'day, I'm a new member to these forums, I just bought my Leone RX sedan a week ago and absolutly loving it! For the time being it it fairly stock with only a boost controller, rising rate pressure reg, mini cannon muffler and a pair of reground cams (all done by previous owner). But there is plenty...
