have an 18RC and manual 5 speed almost certain to go. wanting to know what people think it's worth, it's in pretty good nick all things considered, it's obviously a fairly old engine, no idea how many k's on the clock was a replacement engine before i got the car. completely standard as far as i know. runs VERY smooth (for an 18R) once warmed up. surprisingly good engine.
known problems: vacuum advance on dizzy not working, choke not working, still starts on cold mornings well enough, just runs a little rougher until warmed up. air con not working (no belt, compressor may or may not work, i don't know)
g'box is a little notchy, and falls out of 5th gear (works fine if you hold it in place lol)
other then that it's a pretty good package in my opinion. doesn't even leak!!! gonna do a major service in the next week or two.
i'm looking for atleast $200 for the lot... can see running if you get in soon... replacing with a 1G
