Anyone know this car?

I bought this thing, just wondering if anyone here owned it or knows it.

Ultra would never have an AP racing BBK.

I am still not sure who would have owned this. I have asked around and nobody remembers this car

I am just assuming that it didn't get tracked very much at all. It's only got 26k miles on it.

I am still surprised the usual suspects don't know it. Maybe it came from out of the area?

This isnt my first rodeo lol. This is the 8th car I own.

It's great underneath.

I've already pulled off the shocks, control arms, entire exhaust system, etc.

Only real problem is that the battery leaked all over the firewall and never got cleaned up. I have por15'd and painted over all the problem areas.

It's real dirty but after a clean and polish it'll be fine.

With mcs 2 ways, ap brake kit, and full header-back exhaust I kidt figured someone from the area would known it.

Sounds like you're a worthy second owner!


Don't undersell the TWS wheels, either. Possibly the "best" wheel in that size with regard to weight/strength. The 18x9.5 ones weigh only 15.6 lbs a piece.

I was going to list them for sale and see if I could get any bites. They have new condition direzza z3 (2021 date codes I think) and and I was planning to turn them into a couple set of rpf1s if I could.

I parted out my autocross brz in November and kept all my parts so this is just a rebuild of my old car.
