2nd Gen JDM 3sgte

Precision Turbo FMIC
Upgraded CT26
(T04E 46 trim and 10* clip)
2.5" Aluminum Intercooler Piping
full 3" exhaust
3" (reinforced) SS Autocrap Downpipe
3" High-Flow Cat
3" Magnaflow Mufflef
Unorthodox Racing Underdrive Pulley
Centerforce stage 3 dual friction clutch

new plugs/plug wires/cap/rotor/coil

16xk miles on chassis, not sure on motor as i bought from someone on the site who bought from someone else on the site.

rear brake conversion is done new rotors/pads in back

comes with 17" scion Tc wheels with 225/45/17 khumo ecsta asx's on the back less than 500 miles on them, wheels probably need to be balanced, the place that put them on must have did it wrong because theres a slight pulsating vibration at highway speeds.

the bad:
the shell needs a paint job, right now theres a dent in the passenger side behind the door and a dent in the drivers side fender real low, the doors are also touch up painted red so its not as shiney as the rest of the car but it doesnt look bad, theres also clear coat bubling in places.

inside is pretty good, comes with a 2 gauge pillar gauge pod, and a boost gauge and a greddy profec spec b boost controller but im not sure if it works or if i hooked it up wrong but its kind of finnicky. it also has an HKS knock off BOV hooked up now that works fine.

the car has power steering but no a/c the compressor is hooked up but the lines are not, i have the lines at home the only thing youd have to buy is a condensor.

problems with engine:
nothing major, just a leak from the HFHOE caused by the clamp either wearing out and sliding down or just not being put back on correctly, im in the process of fixing it and probably can fix it by the time the car would be sold unless this goes realy quickly or something.

the exhaust manifold is leaking because the right most stud wont tighten down, its a small leak and just makes a little tapping noise when revving, i have an idea on how to fix this too but i havent gotten around to it, just letting everyone know each problem.

THE COOLANT LEAK AND EXHAUST LEAK HAVE BEEN FIXED AS OF 11/1/06 I AM LEAVING IT IN THE POST HOWEVER TO SHOW YOU HOW UPFRONT I AM ABOUT THIS CAR!

the tranny shifts fine but sometimes can be notchy, third gear clunks if you try to shift fast and hard, this would probably be fixed by switching to a good gear oil like redline. i think the shifting can be notchy at times due to the clutch needing a bleed, yet another thing i havent gotten around to.

i also think that the rear struts may be going bad as the ride is a little stiff, i was waiting to replace them because i was gonna buy some teins.

i have put a lot of time and money into this car but now that i am going to be living at college year round and i have no space to work on a car the car just sits, id like to buy a econobox daily driver and get a job and get my life on track. id say that this car would be perfect for a project car because its ready for your molding, there are no exterior modifications and its got a 3sgte swap, if the car gets a paintjob and the few small repairs are made on the engine the car would be worth way more, but im pricing this thing to sell and im also pricing it to what i think id pay for the car.

im located in towson, md.

edit: the car is red and i will try to get pics up asap, if any of you have any questions feel free to post here i will answer anything you need to know about this car because i pretty much know every bolt on it.

price is 4500 as said in title, i feel this is fair considering there are a lot of good aspects of the car and it could be daily driven, it passed maryland state inspection like 3 months ago and i havent really driven it much since then.

dude, you have put so much work and time into this car. why!!

Finally brian has realized that fwd vehicles are not able to have the word performance used in the same sentence.

Buy a 3 series
And it does pain me to see this car sold after I helped so much in getting it working.

please excuse my mildly retarded friend, he is a volvo enthusiast
