I've been searching on here for about a week.the things I seen was it's one of the better engines they make. I asked and he doesn't know when the TB was changed so I'm going to order the kit that I seen on here.cant Rember the site though haha I know they alot of stuff European cars.he also has receipts for all the work he has done on the tranny and engine work.

Here's the link

The parts place is blauparts what's the difference between the enhanced kit and the enhanced with the race belt?

 

Be careful... the seller seems to be giving false information. They say "turbo 2.8" but in fact there is no turbo.

 

+1 on MetalMan's comment. NOT a turbo engine. The enhanced Blau kit w/race belt will do the job. You know you need to pull the front off to do the timing belt? Search the forums for instructions. Not too difficult and make sure you rent the tool kit from Blau as well. Good luck.

 

2 other items you should check. Make sure the heater blows hot air and he's asking too much for the car. $2000 max. IMHO You don't need to be paying for his transmission work.

I seen that some maybe it was just a typo.i just sent him a message about it though.im in the AF and we have a mechanical shop on base so hopefully they have that tool if not I'll grab it.i did read about the front clip.is that racing belt just a stronger one?

 

I'm in MT so heat is a must lmao.also in MT cars are alot more than say the east coast so I don't know it seems pretty immaculate though

 

get the tool kit from Blau. You need the crank lock pin, the cam lock bar, the pin wrench, the spanner for the fan and your shop on base does not have those I bet. Can't do it without those tools. Follow the instructions carefully or you will grenade the engine!!!!! Timing is critical. This is an interference engine and if you get it wrong it will crash the pistons into the valves. Then you get to do the heads.

You decide what to pay. I'm just saying that he's overpriced by a factor of 2 but it's your money. Thanks for your service!

 

Here's a video of your engine timing belt change at a shop by a mechanic who has done it thousands of times. Read up on it before you dive in.

 

Thanks that dosnt look to bad. i called the shop and they said 120 for the labor haha.i thats the real price that will be great.
