Thinking of buying this, thoughts, suggestions?

[zarnah]

Hi all have found a tidy low ks twin turbo rs and its local, thinking of buying it (well swapping it for my rm250 to be more exact) as I need a daily driver since my bc5 rs has snowballed into a massive fire breathing, money eating monster. Never had much to do with the twin turbos anything to watch for apart from the obvious cambelt etc, and am I getting a good deal (provided it all checks out ok) swapping it for my bike? (bike is an 07' rm250 44hours from new, had new rings etc)

heres the trademe link to the car

The older ones tend to be fairly reliable in the long block department, but the primary turbo's blow often. Check for a whiney primary. Though at that price, i'd buy it anyway! (and spend 1K converting to single turbo! )

Eeeexcelent. Just ask me for advice should you ever chose to do such a project. Trust me though, it's worth every penny.

Looks like a tidy number, you would be hard pressed to find one that year with such low km's, havent seen it around town though, +1 on the primary turbo issue I had to do mine at 90km's as it sounded like a hover craft lol, go the TT's !!
