FS: 1995 GT Convertible Options

[jsh95]

After much deliberation lol I have decided to sell my Celica as I just don't have time to finish the project.
Anyway its a 95 GT Conv. I bought back in '07 not knowing anything about a Celica, but liked the look of the car
and was told that Toyota makes great 4cyl motors. About 400 miles after I drove it off the lot the motor started making worse and worse noises.
I took it to a shop and they said it needed a total overhaul. So I had a "guy who has a shop and knows motors would rebuild it for me". Yeah you
know where this is going. Well he did and it ran great for a while, then I was driving back home from Minnesota pushed in the clutch when I was getting
off on an exit ramp and noticed the
oil light flicker. I stopped at the gas station right there and shut the motor off checked the oil and it showed good level on the dipstick. Then I started it
again after getting fuel and it sounded like a meat grinder.. I about set the thing on fire right there at the gas pump. Ends up I took it to a more
reputable mechanic this time, and he found out that the guy who rebuilt it didnt lock tight a pulley that drives the oil pump so it fell off as I was driving
and the oil pressure light was defective and not letting me know there was a pressure problem, how does that happen!!! so after like a year or so I put
a 5sfe from a junkyard in and was back up and running for a whopping 4 months. Then some one cut the entire top open to break into it and stole a
set of poker chips and f-ing Dave Matthews band cd... really? So I bought a top online and put it on myself to save money and it turned out looking
good. Then I found this site and forum and started reading builds that people on here were doing and had completed and it inspired me
to put a turbo on using the same methods/parts that I saw proven out by users on this site.
As it sits now motor runs fine and compression tests good on all cyl. but the clutch I put in did not set right or I did not get parts clean enough,
so it chatters on engagement and slips under power. I have drove the car but
never tuned it because as soon as the turbo spooled and I entered boost the clutch would slip. I finished that almost 2 years ago, but have since
moved into a new house and would like the room gained from getting the car out of the garage.

So... here is a list of everything on the car and extra parts:

Installed:

ebay knock off ct-26 turbo
sst exhaust manifold
Mishumoto intercooler/piping
HKS ssqv BOV and welded flange
oil filter relocation
metal head gasket
arp head studs
relocated batt. to trunk
optima yellow top batt,
removed ac unit
st suspensions front and rear sway bar
almost bran new Bridgestone tires
newer conv. top with plastic window
berk downpipe extra o2 sensor bung tig welded in
exhaust was never finished for turbo/ still has a glasspack and flow master muffler
apexi safc
460cc injectors
2bar sensor from 3sgte
fuel pump
autometer gauges: wideband 02, oil press., boost
pioneer head unit
infinity interior speakers
removed back seats/belts



Extra parts not installed currently:

toyota ct26 turbo (needs rebuild)
JDM projector headlights (high and low beams)
sst header n/a (with extra o2 sensor bung tig welded in)
original air box, fuel injectors, fuel pump, map sensor, cruise control
leather cover for when top is down
moroso oil pan for 3sgte
timing belt kit with water pump
gasket set
Alpine 10" type R sub and 500w mono amp with homemade box and platform/enclosure to replace back seat
capacitor

The paint is in decent shape for the age of the car but the gloss coat is peeling on the trunk and hood. Some rust has started on the bottom of the
doors but hasn't quite come through yet. This is a project car that is very close to completion but
needs to be tuned and the clutch fixed before it is road worthy. It has sat for the last year and a half and would have to be trailered. I have a truck
and trailer and could arrange transporting to you myself for payment of mileage if needed. There are some pics of the car from a few years back on my
profile already and if your interested I can send you more. I'm asking $2,800 for everything, and would consider any offers.
