I had big plans for the car, but after completing my Mustang project I've decided to get out of playing with cars for now. It's got a lot of the "common" FD issues and I'm too tired to start on this car. The FD just sits there collecting dust, so it's gotta go. Car is plated & reg'd in Michigan, however the car is currently in Torrance, California (90505). If you're buying the car and taking it to an emissions state, it's YOUR resonsibility to make the car compliant/get the car to pass yourself. The car is tuned rich for safety. The car was originally sold in CA, then moved to Texas. I purchased it from Texas and took it to MI. Now that I'm in CA, I don't want to deal with the smog hassle.



I also have a 90% complete RE style flush mount headlight system that I'll include with the car, mentioned above. I have everything other than the actual brackets to mount the lights, they're easy to make yourself and I've seen others on this site who've done it. It will involve some cutting of the car and I didn't want to do this knowing that I'd sell the car. See pics for differences between the H9 (halogen, higher output than stock lights) and the HID! The buckets are painted VR and the covers are genuine RE Amemiya, they're curved to fit the shape of the car. I'll include the HID setup for an extra $1k. If buyer prefers, I can include the halogen version instead for an additional $700. Included are the buckets & brackets, covers, high beams, low beams, harnesses for the new lights, and harnesses for the old lights so you don't have to cut your stock wiring up.



Current problems that need to be fixed - driver side headlight motor is out and the stock wastegate pill was burned up, so it only makes 7psi boost right now. I'm trying to fix these items before I sell the car but if not it's only ~$50 in parts to fix it, not a big deal especially if you want the flush headlight kit.



I _might_ be able to get you a deal on a Garrett turbo if you decide later you want to replace the stock turbos with a single turbo, but no guarantees.



Asking 11k OBO. cam_t_thaiATyahoo.com or 310-748-0514 for questions.
