Believe me i'd like to get my money back, but unfortunately i wouldnt be able to even if i wanted to. I live in Brisbane, and i drove the car back From Sydney. The reason I have been asking about whether or not it was a 1.5 or 1.7 is the gearbox has **** itself when i went to take the car out to get a roadworthy. Funnily enough the bloke i bought this car wont reply to my emails or to my phone calls.

Either way, I had paid $1200 for the car, and the car is in almost perfect nick, so im not too worried. From what i hear, there is some bloke down in NSW who does the 1.7 carbie motors up and sells em, would there be anyone with any knowledge on this?

The other car i own, is a series one, 33 with a 16v motor dropped into it. Does anyone know of any mods that could be done to it, to make it go any harder, I have ordered a SQUADRA chip for it, but i am looking to other mods to make it go a little quicker.

Thanks again
Tim
