Well the time has come. I have been debating whether or not to sell my car all summer, and now that I am going back to school, it is the most practical thing for me to do. I don't have the time or the funds anymore to drive her how often I would like to. I would rather see it go to a good home rather than sit in my garage 95% of the time. I have spent the last 3 years pretty much restoring it from the condition I bought it in. I wish I had pics of when I bought it so you could see the effort I have put into her. Anyways, I have pretty much replaced everything in the car since I bought it minus the engine. The car has been treated with nothing but TLC since I got it. Washed and waxed regularily, garage kept. I spent about 4 full days on the engine bay paint of this car alone. I painted the engine and manifolds with aluminum silver high temp paint (polishing is way to much work), and the irons a nice red. Then I covered and taped off everything else I had just painted and redid all the black paint in the engine bay. I sanded, cleaned, primered, painted and then had my friend professionally clearcoat it so the top coat is quality paint and can be shined up, unlike rattlecan clearcoat.



It has no major body damage whatsoever. The drivers side door has a few minor door dings that are barely visible. The drivers side seat has a rather lengthy tear down the side of it, but I have a seat cover to hide that. A few broken plastic interior pieces/ vents. The paint on the plastic bumper, sideskirts and rear bumper are somehwat faded, but barely noticeable. Paint on the hood, headlight covers and front bumper has tiny rock chips which is to be expected for 133k on the car. Over all though this car is in amazing condition. I would give it an 8 out of 10, only because I am nitpicky about the cosmetic things.



This car starts and runs great everytime. A little reference for you, This car made an 1800 mile trip from Phoenix back to MN without one hickup the whole way. I have the car pretty dialed in for cruising, have not touched boost tuning yet because it is too hard to do with one person.



Details were very important to me on this car. The haltech wiring has been done twice because after I installed it the first time I wasnt happy with how I had run the wires and I wanted better solder joints. So I spent about 2 days rerouting and re wiring the harness and I dont think it could get much better than it is. I have the banzai tape covering every part of the harness with summit high temp insulation wire loom underneath the banzai tape for about 15 inches over the heat of the turbo and the downpipe.



When I first bought it I did mostly the reliability mods:



-EVERY gasket in the engine bay replaced

-fuel filter

-OEM oil filter

-SS oil cooler lines

-SS brake lines (x4)

-SS clutch slave line

-ALL coolant hoses new

-ALL flexible fuels lines new

-New NGK plugs twice a year

-silicon vacuum lines

-Alternator rebuilt by pro local shop (this summer)

-New 700 cca battery (this summer)

-Redline gear oil tranny/rear end

-dual alternator pulley

-new exhaust gaskets, minus turbo to dp



As for performance mods:



-Haltech E6X with 3 bar MAP

-APEXi N1 dual cat back

-3 inch dp/mp combo

-mildly ported wastegate

-"newer" S5 turbo with around 60k on it

-Zeitronix wideband w/ LCD display screen

-Custom cold air intake

-Greddy type-S BOV

-Magnecor 8mm spark plug wires

-ACT street/strip clutch

-Falken Ziex ZE-512 radials in read 225/50/R16

-Brembo crossdrilled/slotted rotors up front

-K2RD radiator

-E-fan on/off controlled through haltech

-Haltech TPS with custom bracket

-TRUE C's short shifter (oh how nice it is)

-Marren 1680 cc secondary injectors

-Battery relocated to rear bin with in line 100A circuit breaker, all pro monster cable used

-ALL emsiions removed/blocked off

-PS/AC removed

-Premix, I usually run around 3/4 ounce per gallon of fuel

-Turbo XS boost controller

-VDO boost, water temp and oil pressure gauges (red lighted)

-Racing beat adapter block

-Walbro 255 lph fuel pump



A few extras that I have that are not installed in the car:



-Coolingmist Deluxe stage 1 kit with 2.5 quart water tank

-Spare O2 bung for running closed loop O2 with the haltech

-EGT sensor for the zeitronix kit

-1995 HP Pavilion laptop with Halwin V 1.26 installed. This is a very nice computer. Has a few bugs on start up, but it is pretty fast, has dvd drive/cd burner. Was the top of the line in its day.

-AC power converter for cig lighter

- the car slo has 2007 tabs on it





So, as with any car I am not going to be making any money off of this car. I just want to see it go to a good home. I would prefer NOT to sell this car to you if you have never owned or know nothing about the rotary. Of course I will make exceptions if you have other experience or know alot about cars in general, etc. But I really dont want to sell this to someone that is going to be in over there head.



Now because I have all those extra goodies for the car, there are some different prices I am offering it for.



With the EGT sensor, spare O2 bung, and AC power adapter I would like to get $6700



I am open to offers here also.



Add:

Coolinmist kit- $6900 ( I paid 290 for this kit, never installed)

Laptop- $7000 (paid 200 for the laptop)



Now I dont want to sound like a salesman here, but I have a limited offer for anyone who is interested in this car. I am leaving for school in Duluth on Saturday, August 26th. That is one week from this saturday. If you by my car before that saturday, I will offer that car up for $6600 dollars with the laptop and water injection kit included. It is going to be a real hassle trying to sell this thing being away at school which is why I making this offer. After that date, Sale prices are as is.



Thank you for looking and please email me, or PM me with any further questions or requests for other pictures. I will be checking this thread, my messages and email daily.

A little update for anyone interested. The car is pretty much fully tuned now. Gmon and I were out until 3am one night tuning and I have been tuning cruising for about a week straight and its pretty dialed in. Boost is tuned to about 10.7, with some even richer spots here and there I have seen, so still some power to get out of it. Is running 7psi without the boostcontroller so its ready to be turned up.



Also, the EGT sensor and the wideband bung were welded in so everything is all hooked up now with the WB about 20 inches from the turbo in the dp, with narrowband back in stock position.



Would like to see the car gone before winter so shoot me a reasonable offer if you are interested.

amp 09-02-2006 08:36 PM

post some interior pics spoolin..

spooliNrx7 09-13-2006 06:35 PM

Not the best quality pics, took these about a month ago and the interior was filthy. Looks bad in the pic but its way nicer in person.



Also, I kinda need some money right now, so if anyone has an offer that isn't lowballing me, I am willing to stretch a little on the price. Open to offers.

spooliNrx7 10-04-2006 04:10 PM

Had a potential buyer flop on me....



So now that I'm back to square one, 6500 takes it all. I just don't want to store it this winter.

Well, this is an old thread, but the car is up for sale again. Put it in storgae over the winter, and am about to pull it out with this warm weather sneaking up on us so soon.



I need to sell this car to study abroad next year. I would like to get at least 6000 for everything, but if someone has a reasonable offer somewhat close to that, I might consider.

teknics 03-15-2007 07:08 PM

how many miles on the motor?



kevin.

spooliNrx7 03-19-2007 07:22 PM

I really don't know exactly. The rotor housings are stamped as having been rebuilt in 1994. The original owner, not the guy I bought it from, had it rebuilt. I guess about 70-80k on the motor.

wahoorex 03-19-2007 09:27 PM

How far away are you from omaha ne ? Very intrested

wahoorex 03-21-2007 06:56 AM

RyoNishi 04-17-2007 12:49 PM

hey i live in wisconsin. if you would lower the price to about 2k or 2.5k for most of the parts out of the car. ill driving over the boarder and get it https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif what do you say. i really want one anyways. that all i can offer

Lionheart240 04-24-2007 02:20 AM

I am looking into getting my enlistment bonus within the next few weeks, so I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this FC...it's by far my #1 choice out of all of the ones I'm looking at..



Realistically, I should be able to do do in the $5,000-$6,000 range. I've gotta see how much the gov. bends me over with taxes on my enlistment bonus.
