Its time for me to move on to bigger better things.

This car has a TON of money put into it and even more time. I think I am being very realistic in my desired selling price. Because of the nature of this car, I am not posting an asking price. If you are serious about wanting it, please make me an offer. To narrow down this and to speed up the process, please make an offer below $20k. (~15k-20k, obo). All offers will be considered.

Test Rides/Drives will only be given to people who are serious and have the funds ready. Understand that I say this to protect myself from getting hurt, and the car from being wrecked.

Send all offers to [email protected]

Many of you may be familiar with the car. It is located in Blacksburg, Virginia

Car gets 30mpg cruising, unknown mileage under boost or around town

With a high power to weight ratio, this car moves. 1000hp supras will have a hard time keeping up with this car until speeds near 200mph.

The car is very fast, top speed is 225mph, and is gear limited. I have not gone this fast, but i have gone well into 5th and it was still pulling very hard. The car reaches 170mph at the top of 4th and does so in a little over 10 seconds. 0-60 is in the 3sec or below range.

This car gets going very quickly and one must be very careful to stay safe. The car is stable at high speeds, but anything can happen. I will not take responsibility for any injury or death that is result from someone operating this car.

Condition:
The engine is in perfect shape. Compression is good and even. The engine has about 6000mi on it. I change the oil almost every 500mi. No sense in risking a motor like this with old oil!
The tranny shifts smooth. I tend to take it easy on it because of the high power and have not had a problem to date.
The LSD is also in good shape, i have not had a problem with it and it does its job well.
The cooling system works great too. The temps never go above 90C even when under 35psi of boost.
The idle on the car is lumpy and there isnt alot of vacuum for the brakes. They work, but are on the limit of vacuum. A cheap canister would help, but I have never found it to be a problem. And I love the sound of the idle!
With the Electric cutout, the car can be driven daily without needing ear protection. It also allows me to keep peace with the neighbors when going through the neighborhood. With the cutout open, the car is very loud, and can be heard for miles under spirited driving.

The body is rust free, but needs work. The clear coat started to fade and peal. Problem areas are the hood, roof and driver rear quarter. The passenger rear quarter is dented/waved from where a friend backed into it. I rolled and flared the fenders and that fixed the line on the fender opening. Now the dent wizard can pull the dents out. The front driver corner took a hit right after i put the T66 in. Damage was to the suspention and steering and crushed the fender. I had to cut out some of the sheetmetal to make room for the intercooler piping, but it is larger then i would have wanted. I replaced the control arm, TC rod, powerbrace and tie rods. The fender i pulled from a 89 and painted black. It does not match the bumper completely. The bumper cover was reused, but it is in rough shape. I also installed hoodpins. My plan was to put on a S13 front end and paint the car. The frame did not get bent and was check to be straight. The alignment is also good. I have driven the car in this form for over a year now.

The damage can be seen in the pictures linked below.

The chassis can look good again with a little work. I have been more concerned with making power and tuning that I have put off this cosmetic work.

If someone wanted the ultimate car, they could transfer this setup into a nice S14 and have a car that would be on all of the covers of the magazines.

I'm guessing he meant "do not offer under 20g's" as to weed out the lowballers/ chumps.

Hey man, I think you are the guy that sold me my burgundy S14 a couple years back... (before you finished the Lexus)... Good to see you're still doing swaps... Car still runs great by the way, added a few things since then, though. ;)

Good luck on selling the car, looks and sounds feaking badass.
