    Newbie. Found this in a field.






    95 GTS

    Stripping will start immediately.

    Engine, gearbox, front mount, 4 pots, 2 pot rears, full stainless, uprated FPR.

    Not bad for nothing!! Farmer said just take it. It was his sons, crashed it uninsured.

    That is indeed a cool and random find, but I think you're on the wrong forum

    You'll make a pretty penny out of that engine and gearbox for sure!

    Hello sir! I wondered when this might pop up on here, lol.
    Could be quite a few bits suitable for on here.

    I might be interested in the box dependant on condition/mileage etc. Pm me on SS.net please mate.

    Would like to add, although this is new member on here over on scottish scoobies and scoobynet has a very very good rep and you will not be messed around.

    Cheers Aj

    Dont think theres enough filler in Scotland to fix it so Ill stick to the original plan and break it, lol.

    I was looking around for prices, does 200 for 4 pots, grooved and drilled discs with redstuff pads and 100 for rear 2 pots with grooved and drilled discs with greenstuff pads sound ok?

    rev counter 80 quid

    FPR and braided hoses 50 quid

    The rear brakes will be worth more than 100 if you include the handbrake mechanisms and cables there pretty desirable should be around the 200 quid mark. and maybe 150 ish for the fronts.

    There's no such thing, they sit in customs for 3 months.

    they come from japan overnight. they just sit at coventry for 3 months, so technically, they are overnight until they actually get here

    I think there was maybe a slight bit of sarcasm in his post about being in customs for 3 months dude
