Garage Clearout

Having switched from one project to another (and being an inveterate collector of parts) I figure it is time to have a bit of a clearout. Despite what you may hear, this has nothing to do with the fact I barely have enough room to move in my garage
I'm willing to accept offers on all the items, as long as they are reasonable. Swaps for Haynes Roadster parts also acceptable If you think I'm being unreasonable with any item please let me know!
All prices include postage to within the UK unless stated otherwise. I'm only back on weekends at the moment, so postage will occur then.
Assume all brake calipers need new seals etc. - this is standard practice for second hand parts as far as I am concerned.

300ZX Components (non turbo I think):
Rear Brake Discs - they are grotty but with a bit of work the rust should come off. Call it £20.


Rear Bearings\Hubs - These rotate OK, no detectable play in them. £25 each or £40 pair.


Driveshafts - Generally in good condition from memory - £25 each or £40 pair.


Handbrake Cables - Seem OK. £15.





Mazda Components (RX7 I think):

Uprights - These use a 114.3 x 5 PCD and are double wishbone. Good condition. £60.



Front Discs - plenty of meat left on these. £25


4 pot Brake Calipers & Pads - Good condition, pretty light! £100 (they are £130+ on Ebay!)



Struts - Again used but seem in good condition. £60.





BMW M52 (728i) Components:
Note: I think this vehicle covered about 80k miles before it was broken up.

Open Differential - turns over fine, no notchiness. Seems good. £60 collected.



Driveshafts - again seem in good nick. £35 each, £60 pair.

I seem to have forgotten to take pics of these- I can put up some on the weekend.

Aircon Pump - bit of an unknown as I've never seen it working, but it turns OK. £30.



Power Steering Pump - again a bit of an unknown as I've never seen it working, but it turns OK. £20.






Random Components

Mitsubushi 4 pots from a GTO I think. No pads. Will probably need a refurb. £60.


Passat rear calipers and pads: Seem OK. £40.
See below.

Passat rear discs: Not too bad. £15.


T4 Transporter upper ball joints. £5 each.
No pics sorry. Same as these.

Type 9 Gearbox - I've not got any information about this, it came with my current project. It turns over fine and selects all the gears smoothly. I'm still working on a price as I try to find more about it, but am open to offers. Collection only.



Audi 01E Gearbox\Transaxle - 6 speed. A very strong box by all accounts, perfect for a mid-engined V8. Engages all gears, turns over lovely. I'm trying to find what a reasonable price is, as the only guidance I have at the moment is the one on Ebay which is priced at £1750! Although theirs is shinier than mine . Again I'm open to offers. Collection only.


1UZ-FE V8 Engine - The penultimate item, this is a pre-94 4 litre V8. Being pre-94 this means that it has the really over engineered con rods of the early engines (and so can handle more power). Came from a 60k mileage car. Has a dent in the sump, but it's still oil tight. Not seized and still has compression. £300 collected.
If you want to know more about the type of engine, Lextreme is a good source. These are pretty tuneable engines with forced induction.

Kinda fits a Haynes chassis



And finally, the Pièce de résistance: A Ford Focus Passenger side wing mirror cover! This luxury item is unpainted so as to provide you the opportunity to colour it as you wish. Also comes with some minor marks to add character. £5.

This amazing item can also double up as a shoulder guard:


Aaaand that's it for now. I also have a set of multi-fit 18" wheels squirrelled away I'll put up here at some point, and some other stuff I'm sure. Any questions feel free to ask.

If disfunction is a function, then I must be some kind of genius.

Right, the type 9 is a 4 cylinder type. Does £100 collected sounds reasonable?
