The Outsider

I think the others have summed it up pretty well, don't buy an autobahn88 turbo, even as a joke. I'm really only posting to get my count up. Turns out you can't pm with less than 10 posts

You can just get glass cut to size can't you? Make a template off the other side, reverse it and take it to a glass place. They should be able to cut it for you. We had to do that for my dad's Conformodore once after it'd be hit... while parked on the side of a quite street... seriously, who hit's a parked car? And it wasn't like it was a freak accident, my car copped a glancing blow a month later. It's not even a narrow street!

This car gives me wood. Only needs massive cams to be truly epic. Good luck with the sale. I'm too broke to buy it.

$4000 is damn cheap mate. If I had the cash it'd be a done deal. Damn uni student wages don't pay enough!!! And everyone quit low balling this bloke! Its already bloody cheap!

Hey mate, SR20DET Engine $1500 Fresh imported engine from just jap with receipt 2 months old Is the engine still available? Any idea on the kms on it please? Cheers

In my experience i've found the thing that makes the car knock (<10) on start up, is the car's recent driving habits. If i've only been puttering around for a couple of days or the car's been idling a fair bit, on a cold start-up it'll have a go at knocking, and also the first time i sink the boot and make some solid boost it'll knock slightly (<20), and sometimes light smoke. But it's right after that without any more knock seen. The other thing you need to consider is the knock detection method. A knock sensor is really just a flash-as microphone. And sound is only vibration. The classic is the bloke with a screamer pipe off his wastegate that exits near the sensor, and causes enough vibrations that the engine thinks it's pinging off it's tree every time he hits full boost. I suffer mildly from a similar type of problem due to my "custom"-spec exhaust. I've had the car tuned and it's just an inherent thing on my set-up. Also, I find I don't so much hear knock as feel it. I find if the car isn't pulling like it should when I give it the giggle berrys, it's cos it was knocking. Still, a decent tune has resolved most of my problems. A turbo with a tiny exhaust housing is still an issue but..... come on pay day(s)!!
