one week to get this done!!

naki · Jul 25, 2013

what is the imperative to get it done in one week, if you dont mind me asking? would have thought 1 year was a little more normal time frame for a rangie resto?

Depends what planet we're talking about... should be comfortably finished in a week (on Mercury)

Had a chat with him a few weeks back, hes got some poorly family atm and some gearbox trouble on the white two door to boot so I expect hes a bit too busy to post on here atm. I am sure he will be back!

Bin that engine zen, if it smokes and yours is a 6.2, the the latest 6.5 is only 190bhp and with all the toys added the cant get it to more than 240 bhp with all the modern gear in there

3.5 efi · Nov 17, 2013
