I was looking for a BP, but maybe I should just get a B6T instead.. hmm.. seems like the perfect donor car

get it for the trans and axles... then if you realy want the bp you can sell the b6t for extra cash...

$600 isn't too bad, you never know you may be able to offer something like $300 and get it.

[91blufestiva]

Well, with my skills, I'm afraid to attempt the wiring for a B6T, but I also want a turbo, and I know that I prolly will never get around to turboing a BP if I get one. So I'm just thinking about getting this car, and messing with it. I've always got you guys to help me .... right?.. lol

[sasquatch]

i have an idea but i dont know if it will work... im gonna try it one day to see if it works but if you can before me thats cool lol... i was thinking of running the b6t on a bp ecu... i know people have run the bp on a b6t ecu so i dont see why it wouldnt work... ooo and you will need a wideband and a afc to make sure its running properly and if its not then tune it till it is...

[bhazard]

I can safely say that going by my b6t swapping experience, the wiring is the easier part. Im still figuring out the trans mounts. I have all the wiring figured out, just gotta actually do the splicing.

I got the capri!!! Pics later It's quite the mess, but the motor seems strong!!

oh, i paid $450, think that's a good deal?

I'd say thats a good deal, motor, trans and int. shaft are worth that IMO.

[Festiva_Fred]

Woo! Lucky! :p

[91blufestiva]

Yeah, I think I got a good deal on it! Plus I could part it out once I'm done and get a lot of money back!
Sorry for the bad pics, it was dark out and I didn't know exactly where I was pointing the camera lol.









I really dont know the original color lol, I could tell the orange was rolled on at sometime, the door jams were blue, but there was also white peeling off below the orange lol. The turn signals dont work, muffler is shot, can't open the drivers door from the outside, drivers window only goes half way down, have to turn the engine fan on by a little switch from the inside lol, no dash lights, so he as a little tiny light that you turn on also by a little switch lol. the top is torn pretty bad, cracked windshield, have to open the hood by a wire below the bumper haha, passenger doorpanel is all torn apart as you can see in the pic.

So basically, I think this is the perfect donor car for a swap

[Maxtiva]

[Festiva_Fred]

Nice score! Put the seats in the festy! Swap that B6-T in it! Aspire swap it! and Slam it!

[sasquatch]
