FS: One of the cleanest S5 T-II's you'll ever see
#1
I bought this car back in May with the intention of turning it into my daily driver. Since I already had a “race oriented” RX-7, I decided to build this car with a more dailydriver-friendly mindset. Anyhow, after completing the build, I realized that I had neither the desire to own a car so similar to the other, nor the financial abilities to maintain both of them (I am a full time student that works part time, and on top of that I own another car and a bike). So nevertheless, here is one of the cleanest FC3S RX-7s (in my opinion) that you will ever see.
The Rundown:
Engine
• Low mileage JDM S5 motor from an automatic car (motor was compression tested at Ground Zero) and the ****** pulls hard
• Full SS 3” Turbo-back exhaust (Less than 500miles)
• Blitz DD BOV
• Taurus E-Fan wired to a manual switch via relay
• Aluminum 3” Turbo Inlet Duct/air filter (Less than 500miles)
• All emission systems removed
• All new vacuum lines (Less than 500miles)
• All new fuel lines (Less than 500miles)
• All new injector o-rings/lower grommets/upper grommets (Less than 500miles)
• New fuel filter (Less than 500miles)
• 255LPH Fuel pump
Drivetrain/Brakes/Suspension
• Exedy stock replacement clutch (Less than 500miles)
• Resurfaced flywheel (Less than 500miles)
• Mazdatrix ABS deletion kit (Less than 500miles)
• E-brake works very well
• KYB AGX adjustable shocks (Less than 500miles)
• Espilir ASD Springs (most drop and highest rate factory style spring for the FC)
Interior
• 9.5/10 overall
• Aftermarket water temp gauge (since the stock S5 gauge is useless anyways)
• HKS Boost gauge
• Sony CD/MP3/I-pod deck
• Has the factory cargo cover (very rare)
• Alpine 2-ways in the front doors
Exterior
• Brand new Crystal White (factory color) paint with 1-year warranty
Wheels/Tires
• The car does not come with the wheels/tires pictured. It will have the exact same wheels with 205/55/16’s on them, rather than the 225’s on there right now. Tires had good tread left.
The bad stuff
• You have to hold the throttle open for a minute or two when cold starting the car. I assume this is because the JDM motor doesn’t have cold-start provisions, and I’m running a US-Spec ECU that expects them to be there.
• The ECU just threw a pressure sensor and TPS code, and I’m working on finding replacements for them right now. I will not sell you an incorrectly functioning car.
• The car has no O2 sensor in it right now because I put the downpipe on before installing it, and now there isn’t enough room between the DP and the heater hard-line to squeeze it in. You will receive a brand new O2 sensor with the car.
• THE CAR NEEDS A FUEL CUT DEFENCER (with the straight exhaust and intake, the boost has raised beyond the ECU’s allowed limit of 8.5psi)
The Price
• I’m asking $8,000obo. I’m open to offers as long as you don’t lowball me. It is extremely rare to find a S5 T-II at all nowadays, much less find one in this kind of shape, not to mention all the work and modifications that have been done with less than 300 miles on them. I am open to trades, and trades plus cash on your end.
I can be reached via PM on the forum, email, or phone at 503-481-5202. If you call me and I don’t answer, please leave me a message. I will update this posting if I remember anything that was left out.
