Ok I'm gonna need some more TD42 info.
I'm set on a GU factory turbo (or mayyybe an imaculate conversion).
Firstly, I've read that around 2003 they had a small upgrade including electronic controlled injector pumps. Is it worth short listing to only have post 2003 or is any GU blacktop turbo fine?
Secondly, where do the non intercooled models fit in? Did they come out parallel to the intercooled models? How big is the difference? Is factory intercooled better or can ya bang a cooler on a non cooled version with success and no issues?
Cheers!!

The downside with the 2003 on is the electronic security system can fail and stop the fuel from getting to the pump, my suggestion would be if it’s not bypassed already to do it asap so you don’t get stranded.Quote:

First one looks like a bargain. Where was that located?
Second one looks great.
Third one a little out of my price range.
Thanks for looking mate [emoji106][emoji106]

Looks like a good buy, I’d say it’s a conversion though
I'm still a little confused on blacktop/silvertop.
Am I correct here:
All GU should have a blacktop from factory?
When I see a GU with a turbo silver top it must be a conversion?
A GU with a turbo black top may have been NA from factory? And if so, and the work is quality, is there anything to worry about compared to a factory turbo blacktop?

Yes. Silvertop means early GQ.Quote:

My GQ has a factory turbo TD42Ti engine which should have a black cover, but I swapped it for my old silver cover for aesthetics.

Yep for sure. Just trying to compare apples with apples as much as possible. I'm not adverse to checking out a conversion but I reckon I'd give it a miss if it was a silvertop in a GU.Quote:

The clock is ticking and I'm fully procrastinating!
I've definitely honed into what i want and i'm seeing a few about. It's been interesting watching the asking price change over the last 6 months from Covid, interest rate rises, rent going up etc..
Asking price is moving up or down?
Good examples have plateaued. Anything that's not immaculate has been dropping slightlyQuote:

Agreed, Winnstar [emoji2956] Word to wise, naturally aspirated OEM GQ TD42 Faithfuls from factory IMHO should be cared for and driven a lot less harder than I’ve/we’ve done [emoji51]

Yep. That is a phenomenal failure. Can't say I have seen a rod let go like that before.Quote:

I have seen plenty let go MB. My comment was in the way in which Winnie's has failed. Normally they break relatively cleanly. Winnies one has like twisted and splintered.Quote:
