It has XX badge on the back and B20A5 engine.. and yeah, auto gearbox :| I am not a fan of them either :lol:
Yes eBay. It's on the completed listings page.

It isn't an xx. The b20a5 is the fuel injection model. The xx is the carburettor b20a3 engine with 4ws. A very rare beast indeed. I suspect tomfoolery with the badge.
But good buy though and a bargain on price.

It's difficult to swap a fuel injected b20 into a lude with a carbed b20. The whole dash wiring harness is different and no ecu etc in the carbed engine due to all mechanical shizzle.

Right that IS the Carbed engine. Basically a B20a3(US)/b20a4(UK). B20a5 is the fuel injected 16v

You have the SOHC 12v carb engine.

Very rare xx 4ws.

If this was a manual i would be all over it. I love the carbed engine 3rd Gen. Very responsive and light weight.

Maybe a manual conversion????

Give it me. 8-)
