Have seen a P reg with 68k Full leather interior in black metallic, going for £1995,

is it worth it? what are peoples thoughts on calibra's?

I wanna get a bigger car that i can get big power out of, and was thinking of puting a Z20LET in it.

Feasable conversion? any major difficulties?

Thoughts please

Just buy a cally turbo for 2k. think that's worth about 1600 personally without seeing it.

For an engine conversion just buy an 8v. But for the fact it has leathers it would be worth it perhaps?

some are shite, others are not.. my turbo was a fooking lovely car underneath the rotten exterior.

As said, buy a turbo to begin with... power can be gained very cheaply on these for very little money
