GTT - Facelift Manifold

Postby BZG Wagon » Sun Jul 15, 2012 6:45 pm

Just took a look at a facelift ('00) Caldina GTT for a mate; the current owner said that he's had the manifold repaired after it warped.

I thought the facelift Caldinas had this problem sorted? Is it from a certain year onwards or is it likely the turbo's been replaced at some point?

meant to be sorted after the extra lug was added,
maybe it was a bodgy install or its been raped?

The owner said he was told 01 onwards, so that could be right then.

He had the extra lug welded on (like mine). I'd definitely check it out before purchasing.
