I bought the car from an acquaintance of mine, after I sold him the shell a few years ago. It's in excellent shape, with no rust, and he was the first to put an engine and transmission in the car after many many years.
The good news is that it was running great, and solid. The bad news is that my friend had dropped in a high mile short block and bolted his newly built head on to it. Even with modest boost it proved too much for the bottom end, after only 375 miles, it spun a bearing. With two other project cars in progress, I decided I am not going to build an engine right now, so I am selling it.
Here is the build: Full custom roll cage with complete interior
Fresh ported 7-bolt head with L19 Head Studs and aftermarket valve train
Powder coated valve cover with welded AN fittings
Aluminum catch can
OEM MLS Head Gasket
FP2 264 Cams
EVO III intake Speed Density with harness
Mishimoto radiator and dual fans
FMIC intercooler with custom piping
B16G Mitsu Turbo
Tial MS-V 38mm Wastegate
Tial Q BOV Custom built turbo back exhaust
ECMLink V3 Welded center diff
Fresh 5-speed transmission with ACT clutch and stainless line
KYB AGX shocks with Tenabe springs
Stainless steel brake lines
Enkei wheels ABS delete with STM lines
AEM Center vent AFR/Boost/Oil Pressure digital gauges Volk rear toe arms
& Much more!
CarFax available!
It is a fun car to drive and the components all worked flawlessly. it'll make a great car for somebody who has the time to replace the shortblock.

I have a video walkthrough and some detailed pictures of each flaw I could find or think of. I have the interior panels missing in the pictures, and some extra parts to go along with the car. A lot of people have asked about shipping, and I'm open to it but know that it will average $900-1600 depending on your location. Thanks!
