HYPERION-X

I'm located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. If you want to buy it or trade you need to come here or relatively close to here as I don't have the time to travel too far.
I will consider a variety of options like an S14, 350Z, WRX, Evo, S2000, RX7, Integra (DC or DA), EK with a K20, EF with a K20, RSX Type-S, or at least preferably something with a back seat. It better be pretty clean or don't bother. I may even consider throwing some cash in for the right car.
I bought the car in February 2007. It already had an SR (about 35000 miles) in it and was converted to RHD that was very cleanly done. No rust anywhere at all. As mentioned the car was very clean when I bought it.
I did all the work with a couple of friends.
From there the entire car was stripped, including the glass, and was put on a wooden dolly for paint/bodywork. The whole car was painted inside and out. As you’ll see the side markers, squirters, badges, and antenna have been shaved. Every single part on the car was touched. It was either replaced by new OEM, new aftermarket, or was reconditioned and painted.
There was some custom work done too. It’s not noticeable in the pictures but the firewall was smoothed out with fresh steel along with where the battery sat and on the opposite side.
You will notice that there is no brake booster. We custom mounted a Wilwood Pedal Box and Wilwood Master Cylinders, which have been relocated behind the gauge cluster. The cable e-brake was removed and replaced with a K-Sport hydraulic e-brake.
The wire harness was completely reworked with all of the unused wires deleted. Almost all of the harness has been wrapped in a mesh sheath and was tucked.
There is no ac, though it does have heat. I kept the heater core and wired in a fan to the back of it that is controlled from the ARC panel. We made brackets that are riveted to the floor that aim the heat on the driver’s feet. It works really well.
This car is super clean. I’ve gotten lots of positive feedback from everyone that has seen it in person. From your average Joe to enthusiasts, to the best drifters in my area, some of who have their Formula D license.
I have way over $23k in this car with receipts to prove it. I have pictures throughout the whole build. There is probably a lot more I’m missing.
The Bad:
-It needs a new power steering pump, it currently leaks and isn't functioning.
-The gauge cluster is not wired. The wires are there but not connected.
