QUOTE(AlexLee277 @ Oct 8 2011, 03:35 AM) wanna ask, roughly how much is it to fully overhaul a beetle engine? depends on what fully overhaul means to u. the picture i posted on previous post (the red one) costs around RM30k, everything new and fully import from Germany. Total cost of rebuild the entire car around RM50k This post has been edited by stormlcc: Oct 8 2011, 03:57 AM |

QUOTE(askar_lcy @ Oct 12 2011, 01:34 PM) i top overhaul my engine about RM3k. just to be clear, that's NOT my car....haha Fully overhaul, it needs to see if you would need to replace your crank etc parts or not, but RM30k is too much. It depends to who u go to and what kinda parts you buy. Since @stormlcc purchase parts from oversea, i have no comments. But if you purchase parts locally, and if you personally go and buy them (and bargain ofcourse), you'll save alot. If you needs to know where to purchase parts, i can bring you. Added on October 12, 2011, 1:38 pm as mentioned before, i can't see your picture, so i might be wrong. but based on your reply, i was guessing RM30k u used to OVERHAUL your whole CAR, incase of misleading info, i think AlexLee777 is asking about overhauling just an engine. not even including gearbox. Hence i dun think it will be such expensive.  and i don't have THAT kind of cash to spend on a car. FYI, ALL the parts, ALL of them including the engine, gearbox, shafts, suspension parts (the ENTIRE suspension), bush, rubbers, interior parts, carpets, seats, doors, hood, even the glove box was IMPORTED DIRECTLY FROM GERMANY by container. basically the whole car is NEW made in Malaysia by parts from Germany. It took years of planning and months of preparation to rebuild. The entire process of rebuilding took almost half a year.And I don't mean to be misleading (sorry), i'm just answering the question of how much that car cost for rebuilding. |
