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.
