    Ok so i have decided to sell my 9 year project track car. Its been my baby for 1/3 of my life, so its not easy letting it go. But times have changed and I have a new priorities in my life (bought a house, hope to start a family, and my new taco :D).

    This car was built for amature time trails at the track. As usually it start out a a simple sr20 swap but grew into a RB25DET Monster lol. Now you could go many different ways with this car, you could change a few things and make it a drift car (mostly tires, and a bigger oil pump/cooler for when your sliding sideways). You could throw some slicks on the back and pull some quater mile times. But what it was based on was doing laps on the track and having a blast on back roads. Its also fun surprising motorcycles on highway pulls :D but lets not go there....

    There are soooo many thing done to this car its hard to list them, let alone the time and effort of install and custom work required. I will list the big money items so you can get a feel for what it has done:

    -RB25DET (skyline GTS motor and tranny) from a 95 skyline. At the time of install it was one of few done in country (now there are kits to do it even) so motor mounts, driveshaft, tranny mounts, etc...alll custom, hell we hand to figure out how to work the exhaust past the steering column (skyline built for rhd not lhd)
    -Garrett GT35R40, she's a big girl :D
    -Greddy intake manifold
    -custom intercooler piping
    -AEM EMS standalone ECU (best upgrade i did to car)
    -Complete overhauled fuel delivery system with 1000cc injectors, new regulator, fuel rail, and a 285lpm pump
    -Recently rebuilt head (about 200miles on it since) added Tomie stage 2 cams and tomie cam gears
    -Spitfire coil-packs (800 bucks for coils sssheess)
    -upgraded Q45 throttle body
    -relocated battery to trunk
    -stage 3 racing clutch
    -Cusco 1.5 LSD
    -Every god damn suspension part know to man and been swapped out
    -braces and sway bars all added
    -JIC 15way coilovers infront, with the 5 ways in the back
    -custom exhaust with removal-able cat to pass DEQ (yes I have tags on this monster)
    -5 point half cage custom built
    -2 corbeau seats with harnesses
    -AP Big brake kit up front (large 4 piston ones)

    Theres alot more but you get the idea. I have spent alot of money over 9 years. and ALLLLOOOOOTTTTT on dyno tuning time.

    And as you can see it dynos at 518whp and 410 torque. All that can be varified by calling Perfurmance Race Engneering (http://www.preracing.com/) 503-619-0055 and ask for Jason. Jason is the owner of that shop and been part of the build through out the 9 years. It was his dyno that it got the pull.

    Price:
    now thats the tricky part, how do you put a price on 9 years and god knows how much money (ask jason he would say about 35-45k if you rate the labor out). So lets just thow a number out there and see what happens

    17,000 OBO.

    Now if first if you know nothing about these types of cars or the value of parts on it, keep your mouth shut and don't flame the price. Second this price is based on whats under the hood and under the car, not the body or way it looks. Its in a decent condition. But its not a ricer show car, my bumper has seen the side of the track and the hood is a bit worn. The paint is factory. If looks is all you care about then this is not the car for you. If you want a monster, then PM me ;)

    Thanks
    Chad

    Looking at that dyno sheet, looks like it would keep making power if spun even higher.

    Not a bad looking car - definitely not a ricer. GLWS.

    I don't blame you. I'd bet with a good balance and ARP bolts it would spin to 7k+ easily. Then the valve train becomes the worry.

    Valve train was rebuilt already and it has ARP bolts. Its just that my goal was 500 and I broke that, so I stopped lol
    Actually stock redline is 7200 for that motor, but if you heard this thing at 6700 you would be scaried too lol
