Price: $20,000 OBO

5MT, GRP Limited Sedan with black leather interior, 55,5xx miles on the clock.

A little background information on the car... I purchased the car approximately a year and a half ago. The motor work was done at East Coast Swappers (ECS), they have been nothing but helpful with any and all questions I have had on the car. Recently the car was re-tuned at Enhanced Street Performance (ESP) in Sterling, MA who do great work, and the car put down 300whp/310wtq with a conservative tune (this is my daily driver).

Power Modifications:

- ej257 STi Block (installed at approx. 32k miles) with Wiseco forged pistons, STi heads, Cometic head gaskets and ARP head studs
- Prodrive BCS
- Agency power 3 inch inlet
- K&N Typhoon intake
- TDC Mike Custom FMIC
- FP green turbo 8cm/3 inch inlet, EWG (routed into exhaust)
- Tial 38mm gate/ultimate racing uppipe
- Maddad header
- Autospeed 3" turboback exhaust
- TGV deletes
- 816cc injectors
- walbro 255 pump
- ACT clutch and lightened flywheel
- Dual cubbypod with 52 mm boost gauge

Handling:

- Perrin front and rear sway bars (25mm)
- Hawk HPS pads
- Tein S-tech springs
- DBA front rotors (not installed, will come with the car)

Looks:

- RBS grill
- RBS front lip spoiler
- Factory rear spoiler

The only blemishes to the car are a very small ding on the passenger side door that should be able to be removed by using PDR and while up at Wachusett this past winter, someone hit the rear bumper on the passenger side, scraping it all up. I may get the body work done before selling the car, but that is definitely negotiable.

I haven't paid much attention to the forums/classifieds, so if my asking price is a little high, please let me know via PM, but remember, it is "OBO" so feel free to make an offer. This is my daily, so the mileage will slowly creep up (short drive to work). Thanks for looking.

Those aren't serious questions are they?:duh:

Did you read the post? Right at the beginning - ... "car put down 300whp/310wtq with a conservative tune (this is my daily driver)."

Just for humor's sake... yes, the car has had higher boost for a short period when the motor was stock, it put down 360whp. However, the engine later spun a bearing due to oil loss (not picking up from pan) and was replaced with an STi longblock with modifications as you see from my post. The boost was lowered and tune was changed to make it a reliable DD for myself. Whoever buys the car can squeeze some more power out of it safely I'm sure, but I went on the safe side due to it being my DD.

Thats exactly why I asked. And yes they are serious questions. You've been trying to sell this thing for a while on NASIOC and haven't lowered the price yet.

You are correct, its been on NASIOC and LegacyGT.com and there's been plenty of discussion with potential buyers and I hopefully have a potential trade lined up right now, but we shall see. Nothing is set in stone yet and I still have the car. Perhaps it may be time to drop the price soon, but there's been plenty interest in the car and the description reads "OBO" which means I am negotiable on the price, so there is room for discussion.

PS - Next time you may want to start off some other way than "How slow is that?" It makes you seem like you are being disrespectful of my FS post and/or car.

Its the interweb dude. I was joking. You know its clean and fast so my opinion really shouldn't matter. GLWS and chill out. In the least I gave you a free bump.

Right, but you shouldn't be crapping in/on a FS thread because potential buyers are reading these posts. I'm plenty "chilled out", I just don't need someone coming in and douching all over my FS thread or anyone else's really. It would have been perfectly fine if you asked if the car had ever been run at higher boost and if so, what it put down for power - that is a totally legitimate question, the manner in which you asked it was uncalled for, that's all.

I'm done arguing in here, if you have any questions about the car or would just like to argue, feel free to PM me.

Seriously "Duballstar37" you need to relax... Just let the guy sell the car, if you aren't interested in purchasing it then STFU and carry on with your day.

Thanks for douching on my thread Duballstar37...

For those interested, the car is in the shop right now getting the bumper and door ding fixed. I haven't really bothered paying attention to the thread or put any effort into selling the car, I'm not sure if I'm going to sell it or not, but if I get the right offer, I'll sell it.

Good luck with your sale, this is a beautiful car and the subies are really nice daily drivers although I HATE the sound of their engines.

Thank you for the compliments!

Really? I like the sound. I think mine personally sounds very good with the exhaust combination it has. Its not too loud for normal driving conditions, no drone, no headaches, no BS like that. However, when you get on it, it sounds nice and loud.
