Factory Manual
Eucumbene Blue
8L198GJ112453L
AVL024143M
I bought the car with the intentions of cleaning it up and having a bit of fun with it. Realistically, I don't need it and I need the room.
I have a PPSR Cert as well.
The good..
Car is a genuine Berlina Turbo Manual
The MX7 has been rebuilt and it has a new clutch.
The diff has been rebuilt.
It has a rebuilt head.
Performance Mods
Turbo has been Hi-Flowed
Cooler Kit
Turbosmart Dual Stage Boost Controller (I've set it at 6psi and 10psi)
Autometer Boost Gauge
VT Brake Upgrade
Suspension of some kind in it. Looks like a kings springs some kind of shock.
Has a dump pipe and exhaust on it. Sounds pretty good with a single rear muffler.
The Bad
The car is rough, it has some surface rust and the paint needs doing desperately.
The engine has a small knock in the No5 big end by the sounds of it. It isn't bad and only occurs under light loads as you open and close the throttle lightly. Under load isn't a problem. It doesn't blow any smoke (black or white) and oil pressure is good. I was going to pull the engine and put a set of bearings and rings through it but I can't be ****ed.
The car hasn't been driven in quite a few years, but it has had a service by me and a new AFM and it runs about as good as a RB30 could.
If I don't get the coin I am after I will strip it. I would prefer to sell it to someone who is going to keep it together as a car or who has an A8 ready to go.
Don't ask me for parts, if I decide to strip it I'll advertise it when I am ready to.
I am coming down to Melbourne in a few weeks and can bring it down on a car trailer. For this to happen I will need a $1K deposit.
As for swaps, no I am not interested in swaps unless you have a Lambo Aventador. I won't take PayPal, or loan payments or any other kind of payment other than cash. Due to the increasing number of fake bank cheques, I will accept a bank cheque, but I will go with you to the bank to draw it down, or you will not get access to the car until it clears.
I can be negotiable on price when you are standing there looking at the car. Don't post offers in the thread without looking at the car or tell me you can get one cheaper.. if you can find a Berlina Manual Turbo cheaper, buy it.
