I'm looking at one tonight to buy but if I do will be having the engine rebuilt as the button end has gone on this one.

Just wanted a page detailing info on that model.

Lol it does make me laugh when people say oh the version 4 is better but doesn't say why!

Anyways yes I have a very good mate who I trust 100% to rebuild the engine which will be done bigger and stronger so can't wait

The V3 was the first 2 door produced off the line, it had the more aggresive cams. Great car i have a type r v3 too with a blown bottom end and shall be rebuilding it as and when i get the time.

I think people prefer the V4 as it has the later style dash. But generally both cars are not very different.

When buying either look at the mods and do a tally up of them and then ask yourself if it's worth it. That's what i do.

Good Luck with the viewing.

Hi Baly thanks for your reply.

Lol the dash is that why its better??! Ooooooooooook lol

Anyway yes I have bought the car and its being picked up Monday and the engine will be rebuilt by a trusted mate.

Can't wait. How much different are they to drive to the 2000 Turbos? Thats the only other scooby I've owned !

Completely different. Set the dccd to fun (always on the rear ) and the smile will not come off your face! what engine are you putting in? I would get the clutch / flywheel and box done at the same time as they are only good for 350 really. Im running 350/350 and its great fun but will be going forged 2.1 when the engine gives up with a ppg box
