After some people stole parts from my car I have to admit I'm starting to feel a little sick of it now. I also feel that I would like to own a CBR 600 again as they are jolly spiffing. I know the wealth of knowledge on this forum is immense and that any response to a valid question will be delivered with the alacrity of a bullet train. Thus I was wondering if I could bother you chaps with a ponderer. How much would my fully rebuilt G60 engine be worth on the open market? If I happen to break the car I would like to attain the princely sum of two thousand English pounds worth of the Queen's monies.

 

Do you have any idea how much it would be worth without the supercharger my good friends?

 

The car has got a turbo manifold of the cast variety, a Cosworth T3 turbo (jolly fast), a 3 inch stainless Cosworth downpipe and last but by no means least it has a few other "bits and bobs". After much contemplation I have reached the conclusion that the princely sum of two thousand English pounds worth of the Queen's monies is no mere pipe dream. If someone was to offer me such a bribe I would be awfully tempted to take them up on their offer. However, if no chap shows any interest I will release some capital from the old estate and make an investment in the car's running my own self. Thank you all so much for taking the time to read this post.

 

Haven't got a clue mate, sorry.

Seems a real shame to break the car maybe someone might buy the whole thing to make back standard or continue to the g60t

If you find out how much they want for the engine complete I could offer the use of my van to get it back to yours if you like, at least two can be there to lift onto the van.

i ya rite there on at the top isnt there, i only want brackets and stuff for set-up, mite be cheaper if i just take all bits of in situ at scrap yard lol

 

Was there yesterday mate getting some bits from a 16v and I asked the guys where it had gone. Apparently when they are running slow on scrap they just pick cars from the top and crush them. Seems daft to me as there more money n them than scrap value. Anyway it gone chap, but I'll keep my ears and eyes open for another one.
