Just curious to see if the person selling this Celi was here at 6gc or if anyone knew the person. I've dropped an email for more details and some pics, but we'll see.

4k... its a good deal if u ask me

[airswoosh1]

Well, he got back to me today. Yeah, so that's the guy who is selling it. If it was a hatchback I would have probably taken it, but I'm not a great fan of the coupes. Here was his response to my email for anyone who wants some more info:

1. The car has a clean tittle
2. I did the swap myself. The wiring was done by Michael Coury of Top Shelf Racing. I sent him the 3sgte harness along with my original harness and he worked his magic. NEVER had a problem with wiring, and I give him much credit for that.
3. One thing, that I believe the clutch slave cylinder is going bad, so might need to get replaced.(about $25). Besides that, no mechanical problems. In the past, I had a problem with one of the axels popping out, and my turbo ate ****. Both issues were resolved. A spacer was made for the axel and everything is fine there, and the trubo was rebuilt and upgraded to a .54 trim by Perfomance Techniques in San Bernardino. He told me the turbo was good for up to 20 psi, but to be safe, I keep it at 15psi, and it runs strong.
Exterior : the car is primered, not maybe 2 small dings on the rear quarter panel ( I"m fixing those soon), the rear bumper has a crack that i'm gonna patch up aswell. I removed the high beams a while back and sold them. I wanted more cold air to come into the engine bay. The left side low beam is cracked ( my old man broke it while parking his van, but I'll replace it with another one, or will deduct the price of it from the sale price. The hood is a carbon fiber hood, but I've had it for 4 years and the clear coat is fading. Might need a touch up, or could be painted according to whatever color you want the car painted.
4. I have some pictures, so I'll send you what I have and just ask me if you want others.

The car was black, but is now primered. It's an ST Coupe model. Looks very slick and needs a good home. Here are some of the pics.

Sup everyone. Yup that's my car and it is still for sale.

Anyone is more than welcome to come check out the car, just hit me up and we can discuss the day you can stop by. 323-422-2404

I would appreciate it if you passed the word about the sale. I have until June to sell it. I want her to end up in good hands. After that, I'm not sure what will happen to her as I'll give her to my old man. He'll then do what he wants with it.

I can vouch for sphinx and his car. Ive driven the car and it pulls very good! Well worth it, and Sphinx knows his stuff so the swap was done very reliably. Someone buy it!



Good Luck With Sale man

I don't mind it being shipped, but it's the buyers responsibility to arrange shipment. Just let me know when, and I'll make sure to be there for the courier to pick up.

My dad will be in LA in a week on business. He told me he would go check the car out for me. Would that be ok with you? Hell I might fly with him since his company pays for it.
