I’m very reluctantly selling my car to get a deposit for a house. I’ve owned it for 8 years and have spent far too much money on it (over £15,000). I’ve always bought the absolute best parts for it and made sure they’re all set up properly, which has made sure the car has always ran like a dream. I service the car myself and have fitted almost every part as I haven’t found a mechanic with as much attention to detail as me. The car is washed, polished and waxed every 2 weeks and is kept in a garage every night without fail.

The car has never let me down, always started first time and never over heated or run low on oil. I always use Millers fully synthetic oil and Toyota for life red coolant. The forged engine was installed in March 2010 and was run in on Millers running in oil (changed after 10 miles, 300 miles and 600 miles and then to fully synth at 1000 miles).

When I got the car it had the full genuine TOM’S kit, JAM ECU, Blitz Nur Spec Exhaust, HKS SSQV and Blitz Carbon boost gauge installed. Since then I have bought and added all the parts above, almost all of which have been brand new. The first round of tuning I did was to install the HKS actuator and get rid of the EFI pipe by making up a front mount intake with a HKS mushroom filter and ported the wastegate and 3rd manifold runner. The next round of tuning was a WEPR FMIC, hard pipe kit and Blitz Dual SBCR boost controller. After setting up the boost controller the clutch started to slip so I bought the ORC 309 clutch and flywheel kit and had this fitted with a set of lightweight under drive pulleys, TRD engine mounts and a cruise 2mm head gasket. I ran this for about a year until I put the TD04 kit on and the AEM wideband gauge. I then ran the TD04 setup for about a year until the car started to puff a bit of smoke which turned out to be down to the valve stem seals. I had the feeling the block could do with a rebore and hone so I decided to go all out and research all the parts needed to build the best 4EFTE. I chose the Ross pistons as they have the lowest silicon content of all the pistons I could find available for the 4EFTE and therefore should be the strongest and I chose the Pauter rods as they have the highest pressure and rpm rating of all the rods I could find for the 4EFTE. ACL bearings and ARP bolts have a fantastic reputation in motorsport and the only realistic option for cams and springs were speed vision items. I gave all of these parts to KAD and they carried out the build for me, blueprinting the block, porting and polishing the head, rebore/honing/facing the block, working out perfect clearances for the valve train, measuring and adjusting the compression ratio etc etc. I’ve had the car back up and running for almost 4 years now and it hasn’t missed a beat, it’s a very strong engine and I built it with the intention of running 350+bhp however my priorities have changed and I’m now looking to buy a house and will be needing the money from this sale to help fund that.

Cheers Allan and hookie.

I've edited the post now. The reason it said this year is because I originally wrote the thread back in 2010 and then decided to keep the car so copied most of it to this ad with a few updates but missed that edit.

The engine has done 10,000 miles since being rebuilt.

Will check the mileage on the actual car when I get a min but basically everything has been replaced on it.

KAD are a tuning company that specialise mainly in building track mini's but also do big brake kits and custom engine builds (they were rebuilding a rolls Royce engine when I had mine done).

That's their website but they've recently updated it so not all workin atm.

Unfortunately not mate. I'm looking to sell as a whole.

I've added more pics today with my standard bumper on. The car will come with the Tom's bumper aswell but as it's made of fibreglass it does get a bit of a battering if I leave it on all the time. The standard bumper does need another coat of paint and lacquer which I'll be doing soon.
