Well my project has come to an end due to a stupid move on a buddies part. For the last 12 months i have been meticulously working on this car as a restoration project, and as it was coming to the restoration completion and i was ready to step into performance, I had a tire blow out. Well that not too bad, but as my buddy shows up with my spare and tools, he decides to use his tiny little jack on my frame halfway down the car, resulting in a nice 1 1/2" kink in the frame. I had originally bought the car to restore and do a light build, then sell it. I was not going to sell this car until it was to a point where i would keep it, and suffice to say i would NOT sell this car with a bent frame nor drive it with one.
I'm starting this thread as a feeler to gauge interest in the main parts. I'll put up pictures of parts once i get the car back home and up on stands. As it stands right now EVERYTHING is up for grabs minus the rims.
There are a few performance parts on the car, but it wasn't a main focus until the car was running well and looking mint. I was just getting to the paint and body work.
Car is black with original paint.
Whats been done:
Motor/ Exhaust;
- Rebuilt RB20DET at 100,000 kms (6X,XXX kms on since rebuild, only about 4000 kms put on with me as owner. I did a trip to BC in it.)
- New NGK plugs (gapped to .028)
- Turbosmart manual boost controller (bypassed except for track use, never saw a track while i owned it)
- Tial aftermarket Blow-off valve
- 3" Kakimoto Cat-back exhaust /w hollowed cat. (had custom turbo-back work done but only selling from the cat back)
I would prefer to sell the motor and transmission together. Bu i kinda have a feeling that wouldn't happen in the end anyway. I will do a compression test on the motor before selling. Oil was just changed too... gaddam it fack!

There is no collision damage to this car except for a small dent on the rear passenger side which was there when i bought it.
Some other parts people might be interested in.
- Rear spats (pretty much mint)
- OEM sideskirts (little bit of a crack on the drivers side one, passenger side is close to mint)
- front bumper (seen better days, not cracked or broken though, quite a bit of rock chip on paint, definetley would need a paint job)
- trunk /w GtS spoiler (mint)
- rear window (5% tint, in mint shape)
- front spoiler motors
It's late and i'm tired and cranky about this. This is as far as i go for now till tomorrow or whenever i have the energy to list more parts.
Can contact me via PM, e-mail (phacedown@hotmail.com) or text 1(780)340-6005 with any questions. I will reply as soon as i can. Sorry i have no pics up right now it's 1 am and i just got home from almost committing a homicide over this.
