Hey Guys,

Cordia's just getting too old and too costly to fix up, so I'm separating some bits off. First off the line is the exhaust. Full 2.5" exhaust - single muffler, single cat, low-radius bends (press bent though). Plus my dump pipe. This one has a separate wastegate pipe which joins back in about a meter down the pipe length - just before the flex joint. See pictures. (It connected up to a TD05 turbo).

I wouldn't think the oxygen sensor works - I assume it's pretty dirty with carbon/oil smoke. I never had it connected so don't know.

The turbo sounds from this are amazing... all the fluttering, whistling and whooshing you could want.

Exhaust - $300 (Think the exhaust its stainless as there isn't much surface rust.)
Dump Pipe - $200

I'm in Perth, WA (NOR)

It's off a VR4 Cordia (with a Wolf3d). VR4 has valve-train rattle and smokey/rough start-up, but once warmed up runs fine. If anyone in Perth wants the car let me know too - I'll be scrapping it soon. It's not rego'd so would need to be trailered. The steering is wobbly and the body average, so it's only good for transplanting a working VR4 setup to a nicer body.

Why are you scrapping the car?? Im sure someone from the forum would be happy to pay scrap price for it if you dont have the space to part it out.
Its a shame you're in WA... Looks like there are some good bits on the car... Any chance of some more pics?? :)

Visually she's not too exciting. Faded paintwork, few minor dints, etc. Perfect sleeper car :D
But while there's not much show, there certainly was go. 190kw at the wheels.

Forgot to mention, the clutch is also gone. You can still drive around normally (although clutch feels yucky), but no hope of getting any full throttle.

Oh, another goodie is it has a rear disk-brake conversion.

I have no hope of getting the engine out and saving it :( , and I need to keep the car mobile, so if anyone is interested for the whole car (working example of VR4 setup (but note comments in my original post), rear disk brakes, etc) then PM me / post here. You need to take the whole car though.
Any small parts that are relatively easy to get off I'm open to suggestion.

That bay certainly is a perfect example. It’s as though it was there from factory.

Hey all, thanks for the comments.

re: engine bay. Yeah, one of the reasons I bought this one. I figured I'd have no trouble with Police looking at the bay - it looks factory fitted. It was a pretty good conversion (by previous owner). (The bodgy wiring finish on the firewall was me though, after it was off the road. The original engine loom was still in the bay which I removed).

tatus: lol. Just saw your ad actually. We can both sit in our unrego'd Cordia's making brm-brm-phsst noises pretending we're driving.... :D
