Title: Ex Police Parts / Goodies for sale.
Post by: zirk on 02 February 2013, 01:29:50
All from the same Car, 80k miles, Auto Saloon, 2000 reg, HG gone and too many body panels dinged to warrant repair, hence being weighed in.

This car shifted like mad, handled bang on (15" steels with HD suspension, probably set up for London's sleeping policeman humps).

LSD fully working, probably never really seen proper action as it was Ex DPG (SO16), London Met Diplomatic Protection Group (the Red Omega;s), unless they were playing 'Cowboys and Indians' on training days which probably accounted for all the Blue and Red plastic bullet marks everywhere.

- Enlarged Throttle Bodies, Ported and Polished, come with matched Penlum and lower divider. also  seems to be ported to match. (believed to be Courtenay, although cant confirm). £100 ono.

- 3.0 Remap Chip, Marked CPxxxx, different from normal, again believed to be Courtenay but probably a Police in house remap. can supply ! Key with ECU and Transponder Ing. Loop if required but Chip is easy to change. £90.

- Cams,(G) inlet x 2 and (G) exhaust x 2. £100 ono.

- Fully working LSD (becoming very rare now) believed to be 3.9 (will confirm but probably is 3.9 ratio) suits Auto Box or Manual with a few higher Revs (giving better acceleration on Manuals), can provide shafts if needed so as to retain LSD oil. £230 ono

AR35 Autobox, does what it says on the tin, plus any associated parts you may need, please note buyer removes from Car, as dont have time or effort to remove myself, otherwise will get weighed in with the Car, Hence price £70 or offers.

Heavy Duty Alternator, believed to be 120+ Amp, needs confirming, ideal for heavy ICE use etc.
£30 ono.

3.0 Cats x 2, good, told will make a good upgrade for 3.2 for HP with some minor Mods, £100 ono.

Calibrated Police Speedo (155mph), why not, £15 ono.

Front and Rear Suspension complete, note this is on the proviso I can remove after weighing in, would be a same to lose it, as car really did handle well with it, £80 ono

Possibly 5 x 15" steels with good Tyres (Spare - Brand New steel and Tyre), may keep for next winter, but what the hell, £120 ono.

Anything else just ask and I'll list. please note postage is extra at cost, not had time to check yet, photos available on request.

City of London Police (The Square Mile) are a different Force from the London Met, but use similar colours on there vehicles, White now Silver as do the Met. The red ones are DPG / SO6 which mostly float around the Parliament, Buckingham Palace Area, they are Armed Police Escorts for HM, Government Heads and High Risk Diplomats as well as being On Call for Critical Incidents and Armed Response.  ;)

And No it wasn't a Training Shed, they would have been based at Hendon.  :y

Yupp,that's what mine looked like but with steel wheels and scuffed front bumper but as said low mileage. Goes like SOAS and handles properly, keeping this one until I have to give up driving :y

It was in a picture that Josh sent of it,if it's the same car then you could be right as the headlight washers have been fitted incorrectly,although the first thing I did when I got it was put in for a full respray as typical of red VX paint it was past its best only three years in service ::)

Close, the one Josh had was also ex DPG but a 3.2, reason I know is I have that Car tucked away at the moment,  ;) (dont ask), This is another one but 3.0, just a shame the engine Mods wont fit the 3.2 DBW!

Just to clarify, as been asked a few times now, in case anybody wants to withdraw.

The Throttle Bodies are slightly wider in Diameter than normal and have been polished and ported to the Penlum, the Butterflies have been Razored and the Spindle has also been flowed. These are from a 3.0 and will only fit the 2.5/3.0's. not the 2.6 or 3.2's.

The Chip is also 3.0 and will fit 3.0 Auto or Manual, again not 2.6 or 3.2, wouldn't have thought it would fit 2.5 but could be wrong.

The Cams are all G type, ie inlet and exhaust are the same, will fit 2.5 and 3.0. no idea if they are suitable for the 2.6/3.2 guessing not.

Hope that helps.  ;)

Just with a had a box load of the Throttle Bodies, could have sold out by now  :y

A bit more clarification from questions.

The Chip is Eprom based and can easly be replaced. All the 3.0 ECU's I have come across have the Chip Holders fitted. I dont know what the Bhp increase is but if was th guess Iwould say between 5 and 15. The chip should work as a stand alone and does not need the Throttle Bodies or Cams but with this in mind might work better as a complete kit.

The LSD as far as I can calculate is 3.9 ratio, the same as normal Auro's ratio, the increased accleration bit came from the fact that if fitted to a Manual (normaly 3.7) it will give improved accleration over a normal.

I did have a quick look to see if I adapt the Throttle Bodies for my 3.2, but its a bit of a non starter.  :-\
