Buying a 4AGTE powered Sprinter... HELP Thu, 25 November 2004 07:12 Go to next message
Hey guys im looking at a 4AGTE sprinter on the weekend

this car has made 156rwkw's on 10psi, its a rebuilt MAP 4AGZE with reciepts and a GT2530 custom exhaust manifold and a FMIC

he said it has a standard gearbox and diff and its an aussie delivered model i can only assume its an open diff

i need help with what to look out for with sprinters and 4AGTEs

also will this diff/box hold up very long ?

Cheers Ben

look for rust!!! Take off the boot surrounds and look down and around inside behind the plastic for rust, look around the windscreen for rust, around the boot lid and inside near the book lights, look freaken everywhere for rust and crash damage. It sounds pretty damn high kws for 10psi......

yes, look at the turbo not the psi it makes... thats a damn fine turbio to have on a 4age.

hmmm

do all usual engine checks, etc, compression check.

does the box or diff make much noise? dont expect stock S series diff to last more then a week. ae86 t50 may last longer, depends on how u drive (launching hard and flat changing WILL kill it)
