Brothers JDM Bug had a failing fuel pump when he bought it at 30k with a knocking bottom end, the guy he bought it off had also been running it on standard unleaded when it was still running the JDM map, he dropped a later short engine in it that had done higher miles, my guess is this is a similar story.
What's the mileage bit about fella, it says car has done 23K but engine was rebuilt at 40k..... was it a used engine that was just re-freshed then ???
Ok.. the engine didnt go pop. The lad i bought it off was running the engine in his jdm bug wagon.. unfortunatly the wagon started showing sigms of wear.. rust on the arches ect.. while this was going on the lads at scoobyspares had got hold of the jdm bug sti..(that i have) with the mega low milage.. so long story short..prrvious owner bought the white bug off scoobyspares and had the engine from his wagon transfered over..
