Gday
heres the story, back early last year i was going to supercharge my celica sx, baught everything i needed then i put her on my uncles dyno before starting the project and she seized...so i sold everything i had gathered for the blower project to buy a second hand engine to swap when the new engine came it recieved some treatment in the form of a new water pump,timing belt and new pistons, rings ,bearings, and head gasket kit...one thing though only changed 3 of the pistons as my mechanic snapped 3 sockets on the 4th trying to get it out and decided it looked good enuff to leave in there.
also gave her a new heavy duty clutch as the old one was a little worse for wear
while the engine was out for the swap i also treated the car with a new power steering pump, and rack and pinion among other things
heres why im selling, i got the car back after 11 months a few weeks ago...got it blue slipped and regoed on the 6th of jan...put only 1800ks on it and that 4th piston that was never changed has decided its had enuff, started knocking real bad and carrying on...ive spent to much on this car my wife wont let me spend more and i need transport urgently so its up for sale...a great buy for anybody that feels like replacing 1 piston (if i can find the spare that didnt get put in...ill even give it to ya with the car)...i also have a set of recently reco'ed CV shafts i was going to throw in that you can have too
