Description This is really more of an EOI, I will only sell to pay off the remaining balance of the loan I got to fund this build.
It is an LW5 MS1 plated shell which I bought in terrible condition. I had all the rust cut out and rare spares panels welded in (front cowl, rear windscreen sill, boot floor and spare wheel well). I then had it painted inside and out in 1D008 Absynth yellow with gloss MX grey bumpers (originally Eucumbene blue).
After the body was done I then fitted all new window and door seals and lights.
The suspension received new Monroe GT sport shock absorbers and King springs front and rear, boxed lower trailing arms, tubular upper trailing arms and an adjustable panhard rod.
The diff is standard 28 spline LSD that has been shimmed up nice and tight and has Castrol SAF-XA synthetic oil.
The engine was opened up, re-sealed and painted, the head was chemically cleaned, tested and faced before bolting it down with brand new head bolts and a Permaseal MLS-R 1.3mm head gasket.
Performance wise, its running a high-flowed t3, RX7 550cc injectors and a nistune which made 246rwKw @ 14psi on a road tune. I have a BNIB Bosch Z32 air flow meter to go with it, just not installed, with a cam upgrade and a dyno tune the set-up could probably produce ~260rwKw but at that point the turbo would be at max efficiency.
The gearbox is an MX7 and it has an eXtreme cushioned button clutch which is rated to 300rwKw.
Interior wise, it is grey with S2 Calais door trims, dash cluster and roof lining, VR clubsport Devonish seats (including rear - not yet installed), Auto-Meter boost gauge mounted on the steering column. I also have a Brightline brushed stainless steel gauge holder for the sunglasses holder to go with the car.
Head unit, 4" dash speakers, 6x9" rear speakers - all quality Alpine gear.
In the boot there is a carpeted MDF floor with a 57L Pro-Flow fuel cell, 044, billet washable fuel filter, Auto-Meter fuel pressure gauge and the battery (isolation switch mounted behind tail light garnish).
Other things: brand new tyres and windscreen.
The car has only been on the road since resto for about one month! And as previously stated, only EOI to pay off debt.
Price is $15,000, reasonable offers MAY be considered. Don't post in this thread PM, text or call, but don't if you don't have money.
Cheers, Locky.
