euroriffic 602 Report post Posted April 4, 2013 haha just noticed that! Id say its from having either a non facelift grill with facelift kidneys or vice-versa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yip I did have a few troubles in the early stages. But I'm pretty happy in the end I got it back on the road and don't regret anything. I did manage to get the original ECU after a bit of a man hunt, which I couldn't had done without some good helpful people. It is a really nice car, goes f**ken well too. Its just a shame that some people thought it was a piece of s**t and didn't deserve to be on the road. Sold it yesterday. New owner knows the full history so no nasty surprises like i got I know I'm gonna miss it haha. Anyway onto the next one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
