i'll check the milage in the morning,ones mine and perfect on a auto and had no thrast at all, the other is my nieces boyfreinds s12 that i'am stripping at the moment, i've took it steady today and nearly got it out in 2 hours, i've just got to get it jacked up to get the down pipe of.both start first turn of the key.

i'll find a price for the engine, i'd like to keep my auto in one piece for a while and maybe go on holiday in it as it does lots more to the gallon than mine.

omg i was expecting a cocky answer.

I had the fact that the engine had only been in there for 4 months on my side though(no siezed nuts and bolts) and that me/adz and Dr silvia have done 7 or more s12 engine removal/changes in less than a year between us.

Being rwd and in a nice big engine bay there very easy engines to remove.
