Do you guys think this is a good setup:



red

black interior

70k original miles on body

single T60-1 turbo

just installed a fluidyne radiator

XS engineering skyline GTR intercooler

new belts, thermostat and gaskets

rebuilt motor about 15k ago

RE-amemiya spoiler

I will also throw in a C-west replica full kit (spent close to $2k) with GTP Z3 fenders

modified ECU with SDS-EMI fuel management

Torasport brushed aluminum dashkit

12 inch Rockford sub with Rockford amp and in-dash eclipse screen

water temp, oil pressure, EGT, boost and A/F ratio gauges

ACT 6-puck clutch

Apex-i exhaust with 3 inch DP, and mid-pipe



He is asking $16k/obo for it.









comes with 4 MSD blaster coils (seen in pic) and 4 MSD 6A boxes each powering one coil.





I was thinking about buying it just want your rotor heads opinion, The motor is also rebuilt and has about 15k miles on motor.

looks kind of neglected and ghettoed up under the hood, or it just might be the poor quality pics....either way, make sure that the car dirves well in all gears, has good compression, and han no obvious electrical or starting issues.....so, dont jsut drive it around a block....drive it for and hour or so, and then make your decision....the price does not look too far off, if everything is in order....

Get more information on the modified ECU/SDS combo. I am not quite sure what the seller is trying to say by that. SDS for the fuel side is fine, but make sure you understand the system. http://www.sdsefi.com
