why are you rebuilding a motor that was only just rebuilt to take big hp ??
dude in case you didnt know teh history of that engine its onlt just had a complete top to bottom rebuild with lots of nice bits

or did you kill it making that 235kw at teh wheels

ST205 GT4 NZ New Group A · Mon May 14, 2007 5:26 pm

Yes its a long story, i know all the history to it. Lets just say the car has had some problems. Gary's a great guy and all that so don't want to slag him off. More than anything problems neccestated the head coming off and a few concerns about the bottom end setup so I want to get some more hp out of it and want the confidence of having an engine, drive chain and car built by a professional mechanic/tecnition who does it at a high level every day and knows all the little idioscnsies( can't spell to save my self). My guy knows these cars back to front inside out upside down , blind folded ....he is onto his second ST205 and has passion for them
