This would be great for someone who is looking for a clean project car. There is no rust forming from what I can see, arches are clean and just need a lick of under seal. Everything is practically done so all you would need is the engine and the fittings depending on your setup.

Badbits:
All cars have their bad points, its nothing major though:
-The paint job was only exterior, so around the seals, there is a bit of paint
chipping, but this can be easily touched up.
-I’ve recently noticed two car park dings on the passenger side… hardly noticeable, but annoying.
-I drilled holes on the bumper to fit some canards, but had the coppers tell me to take them off.. left them there to use the canards for track when the time came.
-As it was a Kswap, the exhaust tunnel is cut for the shifter, and there are some welding on the subframe, but a DC2 one is supplies so that shouldn’t cause any problems
-There’s a small scratch on the rear bumper, some idiot scratched my car while turning and drove off!
-I had the electrical done without the swap harness, so I’m not sure where the wires are cut.
-Small crack in the dash, which can't be seen when the door is closed
-Alarm central locking doesnt work on the fob, but alarm is functional so you would have to press the fob to demobilise it and then use the key to open the doors, an easy fix I have been told.
-Temp gauge isn't working, suppose to be a common problem on kswaps, but this could be dealt with while putting the new engine in.

So do you actually get the engine with this? The ad is very misguided lol

"Everything is practically done so all you would need is the engine and the fittings depending on your setup."
 
apologies

the advert is a copy from the previous owner who was planning on selling it as a rolling shell

yes it has engine, gearbox, exhaust, kpro etc
 
Thanks

its got a great spec for the money, im either going to break it or someone else can carry on with it
 
Spec seems quite good and price is cheap for a Kswap EK. Shouldn't hang around long.
 
is this a running car ? not trying to be rude but advert is very clumsily worded .. could it be driven away ?

As said above I've literally copied the previous owners advert, thought I'd edited it correctly

Yep it's a running car
 
Seems a good car and well priced, the swap it self probably cost that much.

GLWS
 
nice car, but looks like the owner cut to many corners, but worth 5k of anyones money be perfect track toy when issues are sorted, glwts
 
forget to mention it has dss 2.9 axles

for extra i can supply

ekk2 engine mounts
dc2 subframe
dc2 steering rack
dc2 upper and lower arms
hybrid racing intake
water temp gauge

that would pretty much sort it

also have lots of other after market bits that can be offered to buyers including gauges, harnesses
