    Incorrectly Advertised turbo prelude

    Here's the ad: http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/heber...ar-/1019534415

    engine is 100% factory, not rebuilt. He's claiming 30,000km on the rebuild when the car's done 204,000. I sold it to him with 200,000 and the motor was still stock, never opened. leaks from everywhere

    The turbo is some old Garrett sleeve bearing with heaps of shaft play not a GT35/40 as claimed.

    it burns more oil than fuel. Whatever some idiot will buy it

    edit: rego number is CGO86F. Just wanted to add it in case someone searches it

    Yeah and it's missing a cat too. I was lucky to get a pink slip.

    Also it got filled with water when my old street flooded and 10 cars were written off. Not mine, I didn't have insurance, so I took off the timing cover and dried the crank angle sensor with a hair drier. replaced the P72 ECU and wiring loom as it was rusted, the S100 I sent to the ECU guy in Adelaide and he moved it over to the new P72. When I got it back, it plugged in and fired up so I kept driving it; got lucky there.

    edit: sorry not the loom I meant OBD2-1 harness was corroded beyond repair

    Tim why are you complaining, you sold your junk to someone else?
    Did you ever advertise to him that your car had all these problems ?
    His the true victim in this case...
