6k for engine swap

[Woots]

If you really must keep your car body...get an interesting engine...not a regular bmw one...go for the v8 corvette option a few of the yanks have done. Then it's at least more special

Will this thread ever end?

You can lead an Essex man to knowledge but you can't make him think... :evil:

Hahaha

Oit! Don't tar us all with that brush some of us have figured out it's best to buy the fastest standard variant you can afford if only for sake if future resale perhaps something in the teeth whitening polish impacts cognitive function

great thread!

JE, I personally think you're an idiot spending that kind of money on a Z car...

but then, I'm an idiot that has just wasted almost £20k on an old RS6... so you are my kind of idiot... 8)

( I figure a lovely V8 bi turbo on the drive is far better than numbers in a bank account)

hope you make your mind up soon, have fun, and ignore the negative people... your money, your decision...

 

[the cueball]

far better than a dumpy wife, noose of a mortgage and dirty nappies....(IMO.... just before I get shouted at )

Now now, I'm fairly sure you don't own the forum, so wind your neck in.

I've got a sig now, I hope its to your liking........not got a pic yet though, sorry!!!

I think JE is trying to compensate for something in trying to make his car bigger and better. :lol:

We all know that his main problem is that he has a very small... engine

:wink:

Jonny you should read this recent article on Pistonheads and all the comments below regarding tuning. Hopefully it will answer your questions, especially from the real world users comments.

Ha, what coincidentally perfect timing.

 

[the cueball]

Perfect timing, but what a load of s***te...

Far, far too many people in this world trying to tell others what is and what is not a decent way to spend their own hard earned money...especially when they don't agree with the hobby, or don't see "value" in it.... :roll:

Just wondering if the modded Zed is someone on here?

 

[DPG]

I agree cue, its a hobby and most hobby's cost money.

The white one? Probably Sixspeed

 

[the cueball]

Yeah I think so... I just went to save the file to post on here and it's name is Andy Six Speed...

[Adamski]

So... tuning is a mugs game.

Buy the 3.0i JE, transfer the mods, and get on with it :lol:

 

[StevenH72]

That article in PHs was pants. I can't disagree with any of the logic, it's the principle. I spent £23000 and continue to spent around £2-3000 +depritiation, a year on my MR, because it's fun. I haven't moded it in any way, but if I choose to and could aford to, so what. it's a hobbie, a boys toy. Spend what you like, how you like, as long as you can afford it.

(Bit of a rant for me) :x
