Looks mint

 

[matty J]

next is the engine work thinking new rad intercooler and turbo plus taking the sump/downpipe and battery tray to be powdercoated today

 

[Iridium]

It's awesome to see a 5 been saved. I've loved them since I was like 16, I'd love to own one like this and have the time/space/skills to do a full resto. I'd rebuild the engine but with loads of uprated parts from K-Tec or whatever, just to make it bomb proof, not so's to run high power. I'd make it really, really tidy in the bay as well, plenty of clean and shiny bits, every hosed replaced for Samcos etc. I'm day dreaming now heh...

 

[Craig]

looks good mate

 

[matty J]

shes standard at the mo as the funds have ran dry slightly but next year im thinking engine rebuild with uprated parts but standard still as they fetch more if i was to ever sell it

 

[matty J]

im selling it anyone interested

 

[fossie]

How much you selling it for matey, does it need much engine work doing

 

[benl]

i have a 200bhp gt tuning engine with t25 turbo and gear box sitting in my lock up if you change your mind and plan to finish it.

i love the 5 mate look top, i miss my one plan to buy another soon

 

[matty J]

Engine runs standard and fine with no issues at all will pm you what I'm after but I have spent just over 7k when I checked my reciepts
