Older Pic - No R1 Lip and no FMIC

 

I'll be posting up more pics as I get the car plumbed, wired, turbo installed...

 

Where are you located?

 

^^^ South of Houston.

Alvin, TX

 

wow...that looks tempting as can be...gl with trade

 

Omg... Ive been wanting a 7 for a while. If only my 8 was paid off i'd strongly consider it.

 

Would be all over this if my car was paid off lol

 

Even though the final plan is to sell the car - I am building it right. I hope to have some good shots of the turbo setup soon. This car should make tremendous power when tuned.

To the potential owner of this car - be warned:

1. The car will never (ever) pass emissions no matter what you do. Cat or no cat - it won't matter. You will need to find a place to get a wink and nod inspection.

2. This car will be LOUD. Its a half bridge and you can see the huge exhaust ports. The turbo setup has a Synapse 50mm wastegate open dumped to atmosphere. Once the wastegate opens, its going to be DEAFENINGLY loud. Also, the car has the Apexi Dual N1 Exhaust - known to be one of the loudest exhausts for the FD anyway. You will get lots of attention (wanted and unwanted) so this is not an ideal daily driver.

3. TERRIBLE gas mileage. Worse than you can imagine (even imagined by a rotary owner).

I figure realistically my 7 will be worth around 13k.

 

Man, I would strongly consider this but I owe way more than 13k on my car. Good luck man, that looks like an awesome car.

 

My car is 100% paid off and in my name...and I live in Ky so emissions wont be a problem the only thing is that I would use it for a DD until my camaro was in a condition were I would consider making it my DD (a long time away from now).

So just how loud is it?

 

Nice looking car, good luck on the trade.

 

300dB at idle? :D

 

very very tempting

 

lets get a video of this thing!!!!!!!!!!
