hey guys, i need all your opinions on this sale......
There is a guy selling me a vl turbo motor+plus turbo gearbox(inc clutch n flywheel) for $2500....
Is this worth the money or should i try n talk him down abit or alot?
what you guys n gals think>?
oh and thats a turbo manual gear box also....
Sounds alright to me, but if you want to put it into a car you'd probably want to put the turbo/V8 brakes/diff and suspension in to cope with the extra power
yeah like juzza said. if you are putting it into an NA vl then you would definitely want the better breaks, VLT V8 or do the VT conversion.
i have heard that the diff holds up quite well.
you would want to ask for a few months of warranty if anything goes wrong you can get some sort of compensation
my web sitestuff on the XF throttle body conversion, calais interior and lots of other junk!
Not sure about the diff but I think you would be able to give the suspension a miss, I was thinking in terms of a V8 conversion, then just now realised it's still a six so the weight wouldn't be as much as a V8
just leave the standard diff in... until u save some cash up for a lsd...
Just dont rip skids at every chance and your diff should last for a while.
That's good buying, even better if you get to remove it from the donor car! But there is no harm in trying to haggle.
