zeb Posted March 2, 2014 Author Share Posted March 2, 2014 it's an ENGINE not a engion. I can forgive it once or twice, but not constantly! Anyway, You need to get your engine stripped down to see what damage is done. It could be fixable for considerably less that the £1500 ish of buying a second hand engine, and then paying for it to be fitted. Where are you based? We may be able to recommend somewhere to take it to be looked at. What were the circumstances of it becoming seized? The Rev-Up was a slightly modified version of the VQ35DE. Sorry mate im dyslexic Will try to remember to spell correctly Im not too far from manchester so if you got anyone local then please let me know. Im not sure what caused the car engine to become seized, i just bought it from auction its only got 40k on clock How do i know if mine is REV -UP or not?

Lexx Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Well doesn't that make me look lick a d***. My apologies. Someone local will likely be able to recommend someone. You car is an 07, and not a HR, so it is a Rev-Up engined car. Brave man buying a car from an auction with a seized engine when you clearly know nothing about engines or mechanics...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Why is it dyslexic people can always spell dyslexic properly? Also, why are most of them on the internet? As has been said, you'll need a Revup engine. At what point does the redline start? If 6.5k it's a normal DE, if 7k it's a Revup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its ok mate no problem Oh now i understand so a single airfilter engine is a REV-UP and the new double airfilter engine is HR correct? Yeah your right i really dont have a clue about the engines so it was a big risk but the car cost me half its value so though got to be worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 It's the easiest way, really. There are other more technical ways, and the speedo could be replaced I guess, but it's highly unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Mcgoo Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I have a lot of sympathy for those with dyslexia or learning difficulties, but surely that doesn't stop them using spell check or a browser (like Google chrome) that does it automatically? I know I can't spell, so that is what I do. Hope you manage to source a suitable engine, you've done the right thing coming here for advise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half of the posts on here have bad spelling and grammar and the other half are illegible due to the none compatibility issues of IE. Oh, and welcome.
