The engine didnt match the gearbox .

We are getting another 130 kilwatt 190 nm Type R Motor 2.0 litre V6

compared to 147 kilowatts and 225 nms, the difference to me is nothing compared to the hard yards in finding a good KLZe ecu new driveshafts etc plus the costs involved.

plus im happy with another R type Motor saving money , yes i do care but saving hehe.


Getting new sticker ASTINAGT.com saving for wheels.


in the end, rear wheel drive turbo in future. I like this car though will see.

That'll be 15000 for a decently done job, but it'd look pretty awesome. You want touring or ms-01 rims, dunno how red and gold would look....

Red and gold (coppery gold) look superb together. Quite a few rx8club members have/had that combo

UPDATE!!!

GREAT NEWS, I DIDNT BLOW MY ENGINE AFTER ALL. Got new 3 valves fixed and cams , gates racing timing belt kit.

New driveshafts all round.

This is great news, as the engine was bought for 1900 dollars to 2000 dollars . Very low kilometre Type R 130 kilowatt KFZE motor. Im glad is 100 per cent again.

Im happy the car is back running again and is 100 % )


Now for that astina GT sticker......rupe :P
