We'll see if it sells.. I have someone coming to look at it on Sat.

I secretly hope I can't sell it.. but if it does at least I'll know I did the smart thing.
Sorry to hear that! Seems like everyone is doing it for a good reason and not because they are tired of the car.

I have to put up mine too after this winter. I plan to move somewhere and my payments to the car will help more on some other things.

I am curious though if you are selling some of your good bits on the car?

I posted the car as basically stock. I'll leave the lip kit and spoiler because they are sort of part of the car now and I don't think I want to pull the springs off either. But unless the buyer (if I ever find one) wants to pay me more for the exhaust, swaybars, brakes, and other things I'll sell them all separately.

Were you looking for a short shifter? I have a kartboy shortshifter kit.. never been installed. I actually got it from Bryce.. he never got around to installing it, and then I got it from him and I never got around to installing it. Let me know if you are interested.. make me an offer.

Snap. Its enticing but my main priority right now are snow tires. I dont want to make an offer when I am not sure to buy it. I still havent forgotten about the Stoptech rotors you were selling that I never got to. I just gotta handle more important priorities.

Good luck selling!

What are these other things you speak of, O wise one? *curiously curious*

also, what about the wheels?

If I find a buyer and if the buyer doesn't offer me additional funds I would sell off most of the mods. I'm sure I can't remember all of them, but here's a quick list:

Invidia N1 exhaust
Kartboy Short shifter
Kartboy pulley
Aeroforce interceptor gauge and pod
Z32 brake swap (front complete, plus rear calipers)
RCE swaybars
MTEC shift springs
Grimmspeed strut bar
XXR 530 wheels with Pirelli Pzero Rosso tires (they are at about 5mm.. so not a ton of life left)
Grimmspeed engine tray/pulley cover
two different rear view cameras
I'm sure I have some other things, but I can't remember right now.

The sad thing is that of the list above.. the only things I actually got around to installing on the car were the exhaust, sways, strut bar, wheels and brakes. The rest are all new and never installed.


Anyhow.. again, I'm not real confident that I'll be able to sell the car. It's October already and not a lot of people are out looking for rwd sports cars. So I don't think it's likely.

My spoiler is an early STIVO knock-off.. not a perfect fit and not the best paint. You wouldn't want it.

If I were you, I'd pick up a new one and see if Bryce can hook you up with his friend who paints.

Spotted. White BRZ @ Coolidge Hwy between 8 and 9 mile road. Has #47 chalk writing on his right rear quarter window.

He saw me and drove together from Coolidge to Telegraph.

Who ever you are where did you get your car? Suburban Subaru in Troy?

I enjoyed the short drive together..haha.

So, um.. Am I still allowed to post here.. I'm an imposter now. I should have listed my car at a higher price.

I've got a bunch of parts left over that the buyer didn't want, so I'm going to try to sell them. I'll put them on the classifieds section later.. but I wanted to give first crack to the people on here and the MI86 page on FBook.

Invidia N1 exhaust - Sold with car
Kartboy Short shifter
Kartboy pulley
Aeroforce interceptor gauge and pod
Z32 brake swap (front complete, plus rear calipers) - Sold with car
RCE swaybars
MTEC shift springs
Grimmspeed strut bar
XXR 530 wheels with Pirelli Pzero Rosso tires (they are at about 5mm.. so not a ton of life left)
Grimmspeed engine tray/pulley cover
two different rear view cameras


If anyone is interested in the above parts let me know. I'll figure out a reasonable price and post them up later when I find some time.

Thanks
